I don't age normally

I am 34 year old male and still have no real facial hair. I was late to puberty, not starting until 16 and my height spurt at 18. I can't even muster a goatee let alone a full beard. I would love to have a beard so MUCH. I look at other 34 year old men and they look fully mature, with beards, muscles, bald heads, mature skin with wrinkles and some even have grey hair. I look like I could be a 40 year old guys son, lol. Most guys laugh at me when they find out I'm 34.

I have soft pale skin and not the weathered 'mature' look. I'm also only 5ft9 where as my brother was 6ft2, my father 5ft11 and my grandfater 6ft1. Its like I never completed puberty.

This has pretty much ruined my life and made me drop out of University when I was 21 because i was being teased and called a freak by guys and sexually excluded by girls for looking 14/15. And stopped me from doing things in fear (actually made me develop a social anxiety), no one believes that I'm aged 34 because I look 23-24. I get asked if I'm a University graduate all the time. I was actually denied buying a bottle of whiskey at age 33 because the clerk thought I was about 20. Nobody took me seriously as a grown man throughout my 20's which made me a paranoid recluse (I was mistaken for 16 at age 25). I don't think it's a testosterone problems since I have a really high sex drive.

Most people would probably kill to have this condition. But trust me, it is more of a curse than a blessing. Its only good to look young if your a female. Because I look so young, I often attract younger women who freak out when they find out how old I really am; then they see me as a freak. Women my age don't want to date me because they look way older than I do and want a mature looking man. I am wondering if I don't have some kind of hormone imbalance or something, or just incomplete puberty?

    You seem to be blaming more things you lack success in your life on than seems warranted on just on how you look. You look youthful - pros and cons sure. But failed university and relationships? I doubt it.

    Do you still get asked your age at the cinema.

    I have a friend with a similar condition he always gets asked for proof of Id when he is buying alcohol.

    well, it was harder when you were young, but the older you get, the better it will be. Time flies, so don't feel so bad about it. Many people are way over their prime by the time they're your age, and you're just getting started! You should just make sure you eat healthy, and lift some weights to be all you can be! No fast food, no HFCS, etc. You'll be beating them off with a stick in no time!

      People constantly tell me I'm too healthy. But hey, it's paying off. I am the healthiest person I know, and I don't age.

      I honestly cannot wait when I hit my 50s. I already get surprised reactions now when I bring up my age, but I'd like to see where this leads me and what will happen in the future.

    Yes it normal. Guys actually grow slower than women. That is why young girls sometimes are taller. Since they grow at a more steady rate. Boys grow in huge spurts.

    You need to hit the weights and start going after women. Your youthful looks are a tremendous asset if you want younger women, even if you don't realize it yet. You have more life experience and are more mature than the other men whose age you appear to be and that will be attractive to the younger women unless you have a really crappy attitude.

    Years ago I took my baby daughter into a news agency in her stroller to buy a newspaper, she was dressed in a bright pink onsie and the old lady behind the counter said 'oh are you taking your brother for a walk?' I said 'no, it's actually my daughter' she looked disgusted and asked how old I was and I told her I was 21, she said I looked 14! I was upset and mortified as it was crowded in there and felt everyone looking at us. I never went back there ever again, these days I'd love to look younger and I'd love to tell that old bag that she should've mixed her own business but she's probably dead by now. Except who you are, you'll find someone who loves you for exactly who you are and what you look like. Good luck

  • well thanks for making me laugh i've been upset all day over stuff just normal everyday stuff arguments with my family., im 5ft10 tall & the older ladies are attracted to me and it really pisses me off that they are and no younger ones that are my age im 23 not 35 and not 40 damn

    you know what i mean man,
    i grew all my pubic hair at 16teen and grew facial hair at around 19teen i don't have a bald head yet and don't plan on being bald later on my muscles are in my arms more probably from jacking off so much when i was younger and my mature skin & wrinkles are on the way,

    i have social anxiety very bad but not on the internet i understand what you are saying fully man the only thing to get these damn facial hairs to quit itching is to shave them off so thats what i do and it works on my chin i hope its not some kind of lice in my chin hairs :-)
