I know I look young, but...
I was just mistaken for a college freshman!
I am a higher ed administrator and just went to participate in an event for undecided freshman and the girl at the door asked me for my student ID - she admitted that she honestly thought I was a student coming to attend the event.
I guess that's a good thing, but I'll be turning 30 this year. I know I look younger than my age, but 17/18?!?! I don't think so!

Re: I know I look young, but...
Yeah... I remember this first time I worked in a school - a JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL - I got asked for a hall pass!! Again I know I might have looked young - but I was 22, are you telling me I really looked like I was 12?

Re: I know I look young, but...
ENJOY IT!!!
Some day it's not going to happen
When I first started teaching I always got mistaken for a h.s. student. I just laughed because I knew those days were numbered.

Re: I know I look young, but...
honestly-- people are idiots.
I get asked all the time about younger-like things... I think I look younger than my age-- but, there is a line. I am almost 32 and while my face may look young.. I am still tall and do not look YOUNG.
However-- when people who are like 23 think I am a year or two older than them-- I'll take it!!

Re: I know I look young, but...
haha I get that a LOT.
When i was 17, I was an assistant teacher at campe, and my goup was 3rd-4th graders. One day we had a substitute teacher and when she came in the class was sititng, and I was standing at the front talking to them and when she cmae in she told me to sit down. I srot fo stared at her for a moment because I was surprised she would talk to me that way, and then she started yelling at me. I was so shocked, and then I finally pieced it together when the kids started yelling "She's the intern!!!!" I was 17..she thought I was one of the 4th graders!!!! How is that even possible?
Also on my 21st Birthday I was in my chiroractors's office and when he called me in he said "hey birthday girl", when I cmae out a few old ladies who had been sitting there said happy birthday and asked how old I was. I said "How old do you think I am"..and when the lady answered, you could tell she was trying to pay me a compliment by inflating her number and she said "14"
Take it as a compliment!

LOL - that happened to me when my mom was buying the mother of the bride dress for my wedding. The woman at the store asked if it was for my sweet 16, and when my mom corrected her and said it was for my wedding, the woman touched my arm and said "sweety, do you know what your getting into? marriage is a big commitment!" I was like, um, yeah, I'm 28, not 16!

Oh a high school kid grabbed my *** on the subway a few weeks ago. I would have been mad, but then I just thought it was pretty amusing

Re: I know I look young, but...
I was out with my mom and my sons at a store. A woman told my mom what adorable kids she had. The woman thought my kids were my mom's and I was their older sister!!!!
My mom was so flattered.
I told her, "Get over it...that woman was drunk."

Speaking of drunk people..
on the flip side one of my best friends is 30 and we were at an event at school and we were stadning with a friend of ours who is around 21 or 22. The mother of another friend came over and asked the 30 year old if the 22 year old was her son. She almost died right there

Yup that happens to me also.
I went to Applebees once with my DH and my MIL and FIL they said "how many 3 adults and 1 child" 
Then I went to Friendly's with my DH and my best friend and the hostess didn't even ask just put 2 regular menus in front of them and a coloring book in front of me I remember standing there going "UMMMM Im 23"
When I say I am married or I have a house some people are like how old are you!? I will love it when im 40

Re: I know I look young, but...
I know what you mean! While I was having my WEDDING hair trial, a woman looked at my sister (who is 12 years older than me) and said "Sweet 16?"
I almost died!!! I looked at her and said "I'm 32, but thanks!"

Re: I know I look young, but...
I work in Higher Ed also...and when I interview students the parents always say..."Do you go here...?"
Yeah, sure... they give me an office and a desk and I'm a student here. It's pretty funny!
