View Full Version : Age Question
angelbluez 03-23-2006, 07:35 PM Do you look your age? Are you over the age of 21 and still get carded?
I get carded sometimes, Last night I went to buy a bottle of wine for a dinner party that I'm going to tomorrow and the guy asked me if I was over 21. I think it has something to do with my height, I'm only 4'11
Nighthawk76 03-23-2006, 07:36 PM I am going to be 30 and I still get carded. :eek: :( :lol:
Fonzarelli 03-23-2006, 07:37 PM I'm 20 years old but people tend to think I'm a few years younger-- guessing I'm 18. I never get carded for anything though.
Mr. Television 03-23-2006, 07:40 PM I haven't been carded in years. :lol:
Moonlight Lady 03-23-2006, 07:48 PM No, I look younger. I still get people who can't believe that i'm going to 37 this year.
Brieannas21 03-23-2006, 07:53 PM Yes I get carded, Superbowl weekend I went to buy beer for my husbands party and the cashier argued with me, he was actually telling me that I wasn't 24 LOL. I'm 25 now and people still can't believe it, they think that I'm in High School. My pictures on my profile, Do I look 25? LOL.............j/k

You look a lot younger, but I though women took that as a compliment? :p
You look really good though, so you don't need to worry. :o
I don't get carded anymore. Even when I go into a place where they are carding everyone, the doorman (who is usually ten years younger than me anyway) just lets me through.

dandelion wine 03-23-2006, 08:52 PM Yeah, I'm 31 and I still get carded sometimes. :lol:
Living In a '70's Dream 03-23-2006, 08:54 PM People are amazed that I am 36; a lot of them think that I am still in my 20s. And, yes, I still get carded once in a while:lol:
Polniaczek033 03-23-2006, 09:34 PM i'm 14. everyone thinks i'm older though. when i first met my boyfriend i was 13 and he thought i was like 16 or 17. when i was 11 people thought i was 14. but randomly people ask me if i'm 12? weird.
I am going to be 27 in May, and a person my mom works with ask my Mom if I wanted to babysit. I met her once and she thought I was in high school. It doesn't really bother me, but sometimes I want to make a T-shirt with a blownup picture of my ID on it.:lol: But I kick ass at the guess my age game at fairs ;)
EmoJoe 03-23-2006, 09:55 PM im 13 and people say i look 14-15
Brieannas21 03-23-2006, 10:12 PM But I kick ass at the guess my age game at fairs ;)
I did that last yr, funny thing is I went to the fair twice, on a Friday and Saturday and I still won :lol:
*Pleasant Tomorrow* 03-23-2006, 10:19 PM I don't know, I'm almost 17...maybe I look a little bit younger but eh. I think I look about my age. I totally have good genes though. My mom's 47 and people initially think shes in her 30s. So hellz yia.
Karen* 03-23-2006, 11:32 PM For the most part, people say I look younger than I really am...although I'm only 17. But there are some people who say that I look a couple of years older.

i'm 40 and i still get carded because here, if you look to be under 30 years of age, it's required. So, I guess that is good news for me. Also the other day while doing work at my local parish, a new priest mentioned ages and he was shocked when I told him my age. He only asked me because my eldest daughter came by and he thought we were sisters. :lol:
swedeace 03-24-2006, 12:11 AM I have always (and still) look younger than my age. I used to be bummed out about it. Then I figured when I am 60 I will look in my 40s, so there's a perk to looking younger than my age. :D

I was at the Mall last Saturday, My husband went to another department store while I was in Baby Gap. And I was telling my 2 yr old to take my hand, and this lady said "Oh is that your little sister" LOL I told her no that it was my daughter, she had a shocked look on her face.
dawsongirl 03-24-2006, 04:43 AM No one thinks I'm much over 20. I'm almost 26.5.
Stormtracker TF 03-24-2006, 04:52 AM I'm 16, but I've had quite a few people think I was over 18. :lol:
Dutabi84 03-24-2006, 04:57 AM I get away with not being carded a lot more than I expect for being just 21. I probably only get carded 2/3 of the time.
*MIBabe03* 03-24-2006, 11:58 AM It's weird. I'm 21 and I get carded all the time if I'm buying my dad a pack of smokes. Yet when I went to buy a beer for my boyfriend (first time buying alcohol), the dude didn't card me. I think it's because my boyfriend was with me, and he pointed out which one he wanted. I think the guy saw him, and he obviously knew my boyfriend was over 21.
Cashodeen 03-24-2006, 10:09 PM I'm on the other side of 22 and still get carded for "18 and over" things. I hate it when I'm trying to purchase alcohol and I'm looked at like a criminal. :thumbsdow
Someday when I look younger than my age it will be awesome though.
snl 70s show fan 03-25-2006, 12:54 AM i will be 35 in august but its only been in the last year or 2 that i have been able to not have to show id ipeople say i look about 10 years younger
Czas na Zywiec 03-25-2006, 01:32 AM I look right about my age and I never get carded for cigarettes. only for alcohol, but they check everyone who is under 30 here.
~*Hannah_Lee*~ 03-25-2006, 03:22 AM Yeah, I get confused for being a lot younger than I am. It's kind of awkward sometimes. I really hate when 13 or 14 year old boys come up and start talking to me and stuff, like trying to make a move or whatever. I was with my cousin who's 14 today looking at cars, and the guy at the dealership thought she was older. He couldn't believe that I was 18. I guess it's in my genes though. My mom is almost 47 and she still looks in her early or mid 30's, and my dad is almost 46 and still is in pretty good shape and has all his hair and stuff.
Sharop 03-25-2006, 10:29 AM I'm 17, and a few months ago, I went into a shop to buy a DVD that was a 12, and the woman at the till asked me if I had any proof of how old I was. Luckily, I had my "Proof Of Age" card, which was given to all of the students at my school when we turned 16 - to prove that we were over 16. It had my birthdate on it, so she saw I was old enough to get it. I was quite surprised, though. I don't think I look 17 (one of my classmates told me a few days ago that I look more about 15), but I'm pretty sure I don't look younger than 12. But the lady was very nice about it and, after all, she was just doing her job.
Im a big deal 03-25-2006, 11:52 AM this kid that went to my hs...he graduated last year and he was 18. he looked 12. seriously. he was really tall though and he had curly hair and a baby face. it was weird seeingim him drive because he looked way underage. he always joked about being carded until he was 40 so he didnt mind he looked young. he thought it was funny
rusyd 03-25-2006, 01:55 PM I stil get carded once in awhile but I think they are just trying to make me feel good.;)
Courtnee 03-25-2006, 02:36 PM i'm 14. everyone thinks i'm older though. when i first met my boyfriend i was 13 and he thought i was like 16 or 17. when i was 11 people thought i was 14. but randomly people ask me if i'm 12? weird.
same here duuuuuudue!
Ewan's My Man 03-25-2006, 07:11 PM I'm 16, people definitely say that I look older, like 18-21. When I was 13 someone thought I had already graduated college, so haha, yea, I look older...I hope that reverses though once I get to an age that I want to be younger ;)
Brad Russ 03-25-2006, 07:44 PM I'm 24 years old, and apparantely I look younger than my age. Atleast that's what the police say when stopping me so often when I'm out at night. My brother looks even younger than me though. He's 26, and people usually think I'm older than him.
Nighthawk76 03-25-2006, 10:59 PM I hate it that people think I look younger then I am. People always seem to think that I am still in high school.:( I haven't been in high school in nearly 12years. I'm going to be 30 and I still look like I'm 16.:(
TheHappyBurgerMeister 03-25-2006, 11:47 PM No, I don't look my age. I'm 22 and look a few years younger. Sometimes people even think I'm still in high school. I think if people think I look at least 20 (or 2 years younger than I am) that's doing pretty good, but I hate when people think I like I'm in high school. I haven't gotten carded yet because I never really go anywhere where I need to be carded. I don't buy alcohol or go to 21 and over clubs either.
Disney Guru 03-26-2006, 04:18 AM Hi
I am 18, but constantly get mistaken for being 25+
I know that I went shopping recently with my Step Sister Melinda, who's in her late 30's. And some ditzy Checkout girl thought we were husband and wife. And i sat there like, she's old enough to be my mom and you think that wowzers lol.
