Why do people think I am much more older than really I am?

I'm 26 too and I get the same thing. Weird. Anyway, from your picture, you don't look nearly that old, I'm not sure who you were talking to, but you're very youthful in appearance. You have a wonderful vibrancy and I wouldn't change a thing.

I think you are extremely pretty, something along your cheeks makes you look more mature. You most definitely do NOT look 40. If I had to guess I would say along the lines of 30. Maybe you could liven up your wardrobe, or makeup.

It is your delighted manner that makes you look older than you really are, I won't lie and say that you don't look old ! But seriously, men prefer old women because of their manner, and to know that you're still at your twenties makes it even better.

It could possibly be your teeth. I don't mean this as an insult btw. Braces may help but its just the incisors it looks like.

From your picture you look about....mid twenties to me (and very attractive too!).

Perhaps people have commented on a 'bad day'? Anyways, don't worry.

i would have said mid twenties! your teeth look a little off though, not sure if you need some work on them no offense :/

use cold water on your face everyday. it shrinks, and worked for me to get rid of sleeping lines. also, bieng vegetarian is great for your skin. eat healthy. drink water. SWIM! swimming is great for your skin. moisturize.

answer mine?
