I look about 90 but I act about 14.![ROFL](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/rofl.gif)
I'm only kidding before you all jump in.

Raging hormones - and awkward lumps in funny places?!
Agree - the day you can't flirt with the ladies is a bad one. I had a girl telling me that I must be an allright bloke because I am married to what she considered a beautiful woman.
Some girls in the office found a photo of me in my 20s doing a photo shoot lying around on my desk and they all said the bloke was HOT - they instantly connected around the same time that it was me
and couldn't believe how long ago the photo was taken - and that they thought the photo was much more recent. I'm the first to state for the record that they didn't say I was HOT now. Some men improve with age of course.

I second that.
I'm also sort of wondering why someone would have a photo of themselves like that just lying around on their desk!
I must say though, if I had a picture of me looking particularly hot in a bikini I think I might proudly display it on my desk too!

I probably get on with women better now than ever before.
Got to say I saw a UK women on TV the other day, that would be a fine example of a perfect women for me at my age. Had the right kind of London Cheekiness....

I dont act my age whatsoever - just ask Daunted when she gets back to Bunbury tonight, she called into my workplace for a cuppa this morning
Looks wise, I probably do look my age but I have learned to have rose tinted specs where my appearance goes, I listen to my mind which is telling me I am a kid, I ignore the mirror which reflects a top heavy, weird shaped, middle aged female - in fact I often call the mirror a lying bastard.
You can look as young as you like but you deffo need the childish imagination and an ability to enjoy certain things to carry it off.

I have always looked a lot younger.. it was always a nightmare getting into pubs/clubs when I was a teenager.. remember being 27 and being asked for ID at a pub door... I started laughing to myself and attempting to find my drivers license.. the doorman said "no need to take the piss, its just that its over 21's tonight!"... I nearly snogged him on the spot! ![LOL](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/lol.gif)
I am not sure if I act older or younger.. have noticed that I have changed quite a bit in the last 4 years (from age 33 to age 37).. probably just more definate about what I want and what I like. In other ways I have changed also, I'm more laid back about things than I have ever been.. I really haven't got room in my life to "correct" people or lecture them which is very liberating as I no longer get frustrated or want to tell them that they are doing things "wrong".. its really not my bag. (exceptions: my kids! lol!).. I also find that I can apply it to my life too now.. I rarely get bothered if someone doesn't like or agree with me either... I am what I am and I can't be anyone else..![Wink](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
I don't listen to the radio as much as I used to, probably because I get bored with the ads all the time.. I do like new music though (as someone else was saying previously) and still love going out and having a dance.. though live music was always more my scene than the clubbing side of things.. (not an age thing really.. just me)

I think I look my age, 23. I don't get asked for ID and can't remember when I last did but I don't think people would think I was over 25 either (well I hope they wouldn't anyway!)
I think I act a bit older than 23 but that's probably due to being raised in a pub that my mum and dad were running. I was always around older people and tried to "fit in" with them.
On facebook there are some girls I went to school with who spend their weekends copping off and doing Jaeger Bombs which obviously having a husband and *nearly* two kids isn't something I can be doing... but are they acting younger or am I acting older? I don't know.![Confused](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/confused.gif)
Either way I'm happy with how I act, I like to be silly and have fun but I also have to be responsible and look after my son and to be honest I wouldn't have it any other way.

You're as old as you feel.
I've just had a good feel - and today I'm around 30.
Tomorrow....who knows?
