Older than I look!

    Not exactly a serious PI, but here goes - I'll keep it brief.
    People think I'm a good eight or nine years older than I am, and I'm only 26!.
    Invariably I end up attracting women around the 30/31 mark which is great apart from the fact that there's big ben ticking away:D
    ..Anyway, any suggestions as to how to appear/look younger than I am?
    I think part of the reason is because I am a rather 'sensible' 26 year old..have my $hit together..
    Suggestions folks!

    Leaving the sensible personality aside, when you look in the mirror can you see what it is about your look that ages you? Is it your general look or could you pinpoint it down to one or two things (i.e. hairline, skin, weight etc..)

    Tight hair cut, clean shave, do you wear gothy clothes?

    Wear a hoody, disrespect your elders and hang around shopping centres. That should do the trick.

    Go emo and people will think you're 9 years younger.

    When were young we cant wait to grow up, when were old(er) we want to appear younger:rolleyes: .

    There's a specific reason why you attract older women only you can figure that one out, BUT, 4 years is not major. Just be yourself and what will be, will be.:)

    I'm going to make a judgement call here and agree with this poster, I'm guessing you've let a few things slide.

    I'm balding, but shave my head, keep myself in shape and got a tan, where well fitting clothes and smile, and I get told I look about 26 when I'm 34.

    Time to get a little vain my friend, you're worth it.

    Get over yourself!!! Maybe its your arrogance that makes you seem older... Just cos they re 30/31 doesnt mean (a) they want to have babies and (b) they want to have them with you....

    Funny that, I am the least vain and generally laziest person in the world and couldn't care less about the above yet I constantly told I look 6, 7, 8 years younger then I am. I never quite knew why.

    ...I am a rather 'sensible' 26 year old...
    Dump the cardigans and tank tops for a start. Do you have a beard/facial hair? What is your hairstyle like? Probably a good idea to ask some female friends what they think, and ask their advice. Just omit the 'clock' stuff.
