when I was in middle school I would. I wasn't particularly developped or anything but I was tall (spanned 5'6 - 5'8) and at some points was overweight. Some people thought I was my age, most people thought thought I was a year or two older or in high school, some even thought I was in college. Even sometimes people thought I was in my early 20s. Like when I was 12-13, a couple times people thought I was my dad's young girlfriend. I was insecure about being seen with my dad around that age. Had also an embarrassing moment when I was 12 where I wasn't let into a kids event that would let 13-15yos in, because they thought I was a young adult. People only started seeing me as my actual age around 15.

Damn 😲

I’ve usually always been told I look a few years younger than I really am. Ever since high school actually.

[andreasderjuengere]

Since a few decades no one even dared to make statements like this in my presence.

''They'' know their place, I guess - despite of this century's exaggerations.

[KostasKouvalis]

Yeah, in high school and college, and I was also told I sound like a 40 year old man. And now people think I'm younger😂

[AI Opinion]

Yes, I have, and honestly it’s a mixed bag 😂
On one side, people tend to take you more seriously, which can be great at work or in formal situations. On the other side, it can feel a bit annoying, especially when you’re younger and just want to be seen as your actual age.

Maturity is an internal quality. What is on the outside is nothing to judge maturity on.

[itss_lily]

[jahaims]

Yeah, I was 6'2 with a deep voice in 7th grade. Everyone thought I was held back a couple of times when I went to a new school.

[MysticDevice]
