Getting younger??????????

Post Reply New Topic

Okay i will admit i do drink much more water and moisturise more regurley than i used......... from the ages of 13-20 i looked old and mature for my age since commented on it a lot and also i can grow a beard in a week and have a really hairy chest. at 21 though people remark that i have a baby face and i get my cheeks pinched a lot and i swear my eyes have gotten bigger as well. .

is it something to do with having aspergers looking younger or is it my new skin care /diet regime i started??? before i hit 13 i was baby face as well and looked a lot younger for my age and it seems i am going backwards in that respect.

I don't know but I got carded at a liquor store and the clerk gave me a long look when look at my I.D.. I'm almost 35

i always get told by people that they thought i was younger.
i reckon that might be more to do with the way i act than how i look. not that i act super immature. but i think being extra shy and awkward can maybe make me come across as slightly juvenile?

and my eyes always look nervous so i'm bound to get ID-ed

I always looked younger than I am. Now I am 39, but not sure how people estimate my age. The grey hair changes things
I do have sometimes that I start to look younger, it is mostly lines in my face disappearing, hair becoming darker. It is only temporary I'm afraid...

I also have quite the baby face.

I'm nearly 50 but still identify with youth culture, where skate shoes, look and act young

When was 25, people thought maybe I was in high school and I had no beard to speak of until I was 40--really. I was hoping that this eternal youthfulness would stick around for the time in life I really needed it, but today when I tell people my age, instead of "No!" or "I can't believe it!," the response is, "Ummm" or silence.

My parents are both AS/ADD and look like they are in their late 30's-mid 40's, and they're definitely not that young, so perhaps it is a common thing? I was always told I looked at least 4 grades older then I was until about now, and now I look sort of my age, but thinking on the matter, I do tend to get the occasional baby face comment.

Is having a 'baby face' an aspie trait cause it does not run in my family i think??????? then again my NT brother who looks a lot like me also has a baby face so who knows?

Having a baby face is not an Aspie trait. Some people have them, some don't.

I don't have a baby face, but am often told I look younger than I am, and I feel much, much younger than I am.
It is hard to believe I am 36, as inside, I only feel about 15 or 16, if that.

Inside I'm still 16 or so too.

In the last 6 years or so I've suddenly started looking my age but until then I always looked MUCH younger than I was.

I have an old drivers licence from when I was 35 and I look about 17 in the photo - one day I'll scan it and post in the photos thread. My wife was coaching me to smile and it took about 7 or 8 photos before she grudgingly accepted the picture and let the clerk make up my licence with it.

Yeah but baby faces do not run in my family?????????

I am 16 but people think that I am between 16-19 but mainly because I wear a hat I think.

They say our faces sometimes don't get the age lines that most people do. Something about the lack of 'expression' (we don't walk around with a permanant grimace or cheshire grin).

I know I turn 30 this year and I still tend to get carded. People at work still seem to think that I'm around 20 even though I've told them otherwise. That might just be because of the fact that they assume anyone who knows how to turn on a computer must have grown up with the things.

I would probably look younger if it wasn't for the dark patches under my eyes from the insomnia :S
