Is it better to look older?

Question

I'm an 18 y o Asian man and many people think I'm a lot older than I am. When I was a junior in high school people thought I was a senior and in college. I just graduated high school this past summer and people thought I graduated from college and was going to attend grad school. I thought Asians look a lot younger than they are.

Answer 1

hey looking older can have its advantages i wouldent wory about it too much  

Answer 2

for now, yes. but not when you're middle aged

when i was a freshman in high school, people thought i was a senior. when i became a junior/senior, people thought i was a freshman.

now im 18 and a freshman in college, and people think im in high school. i honestly dont care because im 18 and dats it. it doesnt matter if i look older or younger.

however, i notice college girls think im cute because "i look so young" LOL

Answer 3

nop, i don't think so

Answer 4

Since you mentioned that you are Asian, then that is a bonus. Most Asians tend to mature at a slower rate, so shouldn't that be an advantage in some way(s)? Perhaps you won't have to be I.D.'d as often. Also people will tend to respect you more rather than treat as if they would with a young adult.

Answer 5

Men age gracefully while women age like hags. So yea men can look s**y at 40 while women have to look 10 years younger.

Answer 6

My be you are just an exception at the look of age........but don't worry............you will not look older when you shall be really old....

...and yes...eat a small slice of turmeric root every morning in empty stomach.......that will help.........And if you want real benefit...........Drink a Glass of Neem Juice every morning...see the miracle...

Answer 8

It can be a good or bad thing, depending on how you look at it. Most of the people i've seen who looked older than they were, ended up looking younger as they actually did get on up in the years.

Answer 9

I don't know i depends i guess.
