Default How old are all of you??

I am 23 years old but i have been blessed enough to look like i am 16. I have OC a few times, never having any negative experiences besides the looks and whispers. I feel uncomfortable because i look so young and i am carrying in the open. I just wanted to see if anyone else on here ever felt the same way, appears younger than they actually are, and have ever had any negative experiences due to it.

I have been told I look younger than I am. That still makes me look OLD!

I'm 22. I've been told I look older. I credit that to my facial hair but I still get carded for cigs =/

I'm 21, I drive a sporty 4 door Pontiac with a loud engine, and I regularly fill up at the local Wawa while wearing my standard IT work attire (Tucked collared shirt with a pocket full of pens, pressed denim, and polished work boots.) My music - usually classical or acoustic guitar, gets turned up slightly to be audible outside the car, and my Walther is visible on my hip.

I get REALLY strange looks. Most of them are filled with confusion. I like it that way.

I'm 23 and bearded, constantly approached by older ladies for my ravishing good looks... JK

I'm always mistaken for being older than I really am. I only dress nice when I goto the bars or open carry.

I'm 23, but I guess my beard makes me look older. I've even bought handgun ammo at Wal-Mart without being carded, but the guy just might have recognized me.

I grew a stache to avoid this problem. Freshly shaven with no stache I look like I'm 17. With a stache and a chin that hasn't met a razor in a few days I look like I'm 30.

I'm actually 25.

OK I'm curious about the reasoning behind that.....
