Is it normal that i look so young?

83% Normal
17 Comments

I am nineteen years old, weigh 120 lbs, and am 5'7". The general impression at work and at school is that I am (not kidding), "12 years old." I am getting a college degree in engineering and even my professors think I am too young to be in school. There are many others who say, "Ya, I get that all the time"...but I really do look like I am at most 14 years old. Is there anyone else who has a similar condition?

    Ha ha yep! Its a blessing. Be thankful. I just turned 26 and I look 18. Take care of yourself, dont drink, dont smoke, dont stress, dont worry, avoid sunlight and wear spf 100 sunblock lotion and youll retain your youthful appearance. My parents are both 54 and look to be in their mid 30s. Its in the genes take care of yourself.

    It might do you some good to work out a bit though. At 5'7" and 120lbs you must be nothing but skin and bones.

    It's a blessing, not a condition.

    I'm 5'1, 18 years old, and I look like I'm 13 or 14. I've even been told that I look like I'm 10 but I think that that's pushing it a little.

    People always assume I'm 15 when I'm really 19. If my hair is shorter (shoulder length) and I'm not wearing makeup, I look 13.
    My grandma is 82 but looks 70. Like someone already said, it's in the genes. Be thankful you'll age so well :)

    Ever seen the movie 21 Jump Street? Looks like it's time to be an undercover cop!

    Your 5'7? I am jealous... I am 83-93 pounds and 5'1 1/4 and I am 19 too and everyoneee thinks I am 12. Even ppl who r 12 think I am 12 -.- I hate it. I wouldn't mind it if I was 5'7 - 5'9. I just want to be a little bit taller becuz I think that would make me look a little bit older. I hate it, I do. It feels like no one takes me serious and that can b very fustrating.

    I do feel that I look much younger than my age also. I'm in college but could pass for 16. I'm also 5'7'' like you and in many ways I look and feel like a teenager. It could be both a blessing and a curse to look younger and be shorter than average.

    Every now and then people get the impression that I'm 18, but in reality I'm 20 (not much of a difference, but still). Just don't be looking for jail bait.

      For women it's a plus. At 40 you'll be thankful for that.

    Looking 12 at 19? By that math, you'd look 31 at 50. No sweat kiddo. It's good genetics
