Hmmm I think it depends on the situation and the crowd you are in. How you put yourself out there personality wise. And how you dress; fix yourself up.

I put on my play clothes, do my hair, take the grand kids out with me I have guys that I consider barely dry behind the ears asking to get married and be the their next Baby Momma. (lol No way in hell is that happening or am I going back to clean up the brats that some my age are struggleing to keep up with.)

It is still kind of cute the guys my own age puffing up and sucking in the gut trying to look like they are ten years younger but I don't buy it and I really wish the ones that do would look in the mirror. lol

But I, my friends, and my kids are behaved and in personal social settings I get out of the counselor mode and relate to people as pretty much peers. I dance, laugh, cut up, and sip the virgin drinks so I am not or look like a party poop or a burn out which is why I get the play I do.

And even though I have long since quit repelling off buildings and doing the serious athletic stuff I still stay active and try new things and done enough I can hold my own with the people who still are pretty active. Pushing sixty I have done emough and know the risks to take, and walk away from, because I have my stuff together enough to enjoy live even if I end up being a very old lady. Which hey after a day in the yard or chaseing Grands more than three days is exctly how I feel. lol

I'm almost the same age as George Clooney and I think I'm aging as well as he is. But, I have fewer gray hairs.

As for actually looking my age goes, I still have my hair and I'm not obese. I think that puts me ahead of most men my age as well as many younger ones.

I think I look my age. I also think that people my age who drink, smoke, and use drugs look a lot older than I do, so I guess we need different standards for those who are users and those who aren't. :)

No clue. People don't comment on whether or not I look my age. I think I am probably looking older since I stopped coloring my hair and the grays are showing now. But, since I'm at peace with growing old, that's okay.

I feel I look a bit younger, but absolutely feel younger than I look.

What's your opinions about yourselves

I know people judge alot on how a person looks, so lets see if your own vision fits what everyone else see's




I guessed you at 42

I used to think I looked younger..then I saw, on here,
that everyone said that about themselves, even though
it went contrary to their pictures.

So, I am thinking, one always feels younger than one
looks, the body ages faster than the mind, maybe?

Because, after all, we are EXACTLY the age we look ya?

I'm often told I do not look my age.. that I look younger.. may be it's an attestment to my attitude? being younger, feeling younger, staying connected with today's youth? the limited abuse to my body?

however.. age can be confused by what we do to our bodies as well.. too much alcohol, sun or cigarettes can wreak havoc on our skin to give the appearance of being far older than our years..

but really.. how "OLD" is someone suPPOSED to act at any given age? I've yet come across a reference guide that says: at age 12 you should be acting THIS way.. or at 20 you should be reacting THAT way.. the only guidelines we truly have are thru the experience of aging.. and most of the time we're generalizing as having seen many 2 yr olds acting out, we dubbed them "the terrible twos" etc.. but really.. GOD (or whoever/whatever created life) didn't pass out 'a guide to life and steps to the aging process' pamphlets at the beginning.. ohwell

mind you.. I really enjoy the 'toys r us' phase.. so figure I'll hang out here awhile longer bigsmile :banana:

People routinely tell me I look fiftyish, I don't see where they get that from.

I think I'm 30!
