How to look older?

[Diver]

This reminds me... a mate of mine is 38 but looks only a bit older than me. A few years ago a tradesman knocks on his door and says to him "Can you get your mum for me", he yells out "Mum!" then his wife (who's even younger than him) comes to the door and the tradesman asks to her to show him what he needs to fix. He never even guessed.

Does she look like an old trout or is he really juvenile in appearance

She looks her age. He doesn't. But they don't look 20 years apart

When we are young we want to look older, and when we are older we want to look younger, so there must be a point at which we are happy with the age/appearance combo - but when is (or rather was) that?

I'm guessing it's around the 25-30 mark.

Wish I knew how to look younger!

Beaker should milk it while he can...especially wher the ladies are concerned. Guys - wouldnt we all like to pull girls 10 years younger than we are - surely looking younger has got to help?

I sympathise. I am 32 and look only 18. It's hard being godlike on occasions.

Do as Shane McGowan does. Drink, smoke and take drugs as much as possible. You will look 50 by the time you hit 30.

Nah it doesnae work. I did that for years and I still look 10 years younger.

Here's the problem. I'm 28 going on 29. I still look like I'm 20. People ask me all the time if I'm a student... I get asked to show ID when at a bar or buying a bottle of wine... I've been told I look like a work experience kid, I look 14 years old, I look like that kid from Home Alone... I've found working in the internet industry ok because people expect you to be young. But still, I feel sometimes no one takes me seriously because I look too young...

Suggestions please on how to look older!

Have a kid... current rate of aging is about 5 years for you every 12 months for them.

And the second one is imminent....

Get married.
That ages you 10 years immediately from what I have heard, and is the reason why I have stayed young looking.
