Any encouraging things to say to someone who looks much younger than their age?

[Anthontcillio]

I’m a 29 year old male.. 5 foot 8 maybe 5 ft 9 tops and 165-170 pounds with a huge baby face !!

That is correct I still at almost 30 years old have not lost my damn baby face.. I am 29 years old yet I look like 19-21 years old. I feel like this is so uncommon making it so much worse. Especially because this is the thing that everyone likes to poke fun on about me.

I workout a lot so I am very fit and muscular.. if i was the same weight but didn’t work out maybe I’d actually look older.

Yes people take me seriously once they get to know me.. I am smart, great at my job, very athletic , lift good weight in the gym.. but I can’t shake this god damn toddler look it’s at this point fair to say that’s it’s somewhat ruining my life

I am married and getting girls before marriage was also easy once the girls knew I was the actually of age LOL. I’m not BAD looking.. it’s just that I still look like a damn high schooler almost and I don’t know what to do !!! UGH!!!

I mean I'm 24 but people still look at me and think I'm in highschool. Only thing I can tell you is yes, there are annoying moments but in the end looking young is going to benefit us as we get older.

[Anthontcillio]

I like your answer but let me ask you this then.. you see me walk into a bar.. do you have any interest in me? Only 5ft9.. very fit at 170 pounds.. dressed well. But my actual face looks like in highschool with very little ability to grow facial hair. Good looking face otherwise

Do you give me the time of day if I come up to hit on you or are you still looking for a manly dude with a nice beard etc..

[mandyfire98]

Who says I'm looking for a beard though? I prefer without a beard any day of the week

[Anthontcillio]

Some girls just want a tall guy and mature looking.. not some dude that looks 20 is all

[mandyfire98]

Some...

[mandyfire98]

Lots of girls don't give a shit about height or size of penis or guys looking like lumberjacks.

[mandyfire98]

You're 5'9 which isn't even considered short anyway. That's like average height. You said you are a fit 170 which would be attractive. You have good hygiene and dress well and if you have a good personality and you said yourself you are a good looking guy. Sounds like to me you got it made

[mandyfire98]

When you are 40 people will think you are still in your 20s. That's a great thing

[Anthontcillio]

Hahha thank you for that.. I mean yeah I had no issues with girls honestly. Some girls do make the joke that I’m too young for them (these girls mostly early 40s but they still act flirty with me).. but girls my age or younger seem good.

It seems to more peers or coworkers (male) that poke fun at my youthful looks. My wife gets annoyed at me getting insecure about it but comment after comment sure does drag me down some days

I appreciate you. You seem like a great person ! Do you have insta?

[mandyfire98]

most men's problems are not women's opinions on them but other men pressuring them or setting unrealistic standards for other men. Like you gotta have an 8 inch penis. Women don't want that. Men are the ones obsessed with big dick.

[Anthontcillio]

I guess you’re 100% right.. half the guys that pick on me aren’t very good looking. But I guess ugly and normal fits in more than someone like myself possibly.

I really appreciate these replies and the time you’ve taken out of your night to help pull me out of a slight little depression tonight.

You’re awesome you really are !

[mandyfire98]

You are great as you are and looking younger will be an advantage I promise. I'm always happy to help.

[thegooglepixelfan]

I also got a baby face and. Look yonger then my actual age. My age is 24. Some wome comment on more than men do. I also get mistaked of being in high school.

[DavidRaul]

Ok. Whats your point? You are married. So what are you so confused about

[Anthontcillio]

Not confused at all. I’m completely bothered by the fact that I look like I’m 20 when I’m reality I’m going to turn 30. I can’t just ignore it because people bring this crap up to me and find it funny.

It SUCKS. You feel like less of a man just because of looking so damn young. As if I’m not as good as the next guy just because I have a baby face

If you can’t relate it’s probably hard to understand I guess.

[spartan55]

Grow a beard maybe?

[Anthontcillio]

That would solve my issue no doubt.. but all I can grow is a moustache, a little under my lip and then under my chin rather than ON my chin.

so I do rock that but it’s not super thick even what I have so it does help me look like I’m in my 20s but not enough to fully help me. I am missing the tiny bit on both sides that would actually make it a proper goatee

[spartan55]

Use that spray on hair on that infomercial... 😂 😂 😂 😂

[Anthontcillio]

I’m sure that would great lmao

[spartan55]

Dude, I don't know what to tell you except try to embrace it the best you can. You will appreciate it later, trust me. People I meet guess I'm in my late thirties or early forties. I will take that any day of the week.
