    Thanks. I just looked at your pics again. I was going to say you look my age - I won't now.

    I look considerably older after a night of drinking...

    (this pic is a few months old BTW)

    I look younger when I am well-rested, and by the looks of my hair in this picture, I had just gotten out of bed.

    (this pic is also several months old)

    I was hoping you would post your double denim combo :D (I thought it rude to do it myself)...

    Yeah, I think we all look worse after a night on the booze. A few too many 'laughter lines' stick around nowadays. I suspect the lighting helps a lot, too.
    The lower, brighter pic look like you are your actual age. Smiling helps. :)

    I hate when people ask me to guess their age. I always purposely say a lot younger than what I think because I can't think of any reason why anyone would want someone else to guess their age other than to hear that they look younger. It's always older women who ask, but from the looks of this thread it looks like guys do it too.l

    the second pic looks about your age. the first pic looks about your age plus my age.

    no, not really that old, but about 10 years older anyway.

    if they're under 21, it's probably to hear that they look older.

    I look and feel older than my age... Photo in my albums is from 8 years ago. So don't judge by that... I'm 55 going on 85. FML

    Judging by the picture you posted, you look to be in your early 20's to me, Odon. I haven't changed a bit since I was 16, so I know I look 16. It's a blessing, for sure. When I straighten my hair, I start to look 18-21, but not much older.

    I also think you don't even look to be in your mid 20's yet, Odon! Whoever told you late 30's was either trying to rile you or stupid.

    Women who do this whole "how old do you think I look?" *winking and batting their eyelashes* grate on my nerves.

    This year has literally been hell for me so I'm not even going to comment on myself...but I feel like Ty said...but a year older, feeling a decade older - 56 going on 96. 2 years ago I would have said I def didn't look out of my 40's. Life is hell on one's self-confidence, and wrinkles. ;)

    True, but I don't really interact with people under 21. Except for my own kid.

    Thank You. I do look a bit tired at the moment. You do look youthful. Wait till the children arrive :p

    I don't think either. I'm not sure what she was thinking - but she wasn't far off. Confidence knocked a little :D

    I've most often been mistaken for younger, but I've been pegged as a lot older as well. Age is definitely in the eye of the beholder. I'm horrible at guessing ages and I try to refrain so as to not hurt anyone's feelings.

    I used to get mistaken for a lot younger a few years back, but I have changed a lot now and look my age.. a lot of people think I am older but only by how I speak/act rather than how I look. I suppose I vary, some shops will ID me because they think I look under 18, others won't because they think I look over 21.
