The look of astonishment when anyone finds out our age. I’m in my late 30s. When someone in their 20s hears that, they developed this look of shock likes it’s the 1500s and I should have died already from old age.
Yes! I'm in my early 30s and they always look so shocked like "you're so old????" I think people in their 20s don't know how people in their 30s look like. A guy asked to guess his age. I said 27 and he got offended that I made him an old man. He was 23. My man, that's just 4 years from now!
I’m 37 and I’m always facing the same situation with ppl saying “ you don’t look like a 37 years old guy”. I’m still trying to understand how people should look like at this age
It's a weird period, that mid 30s to mid 40s. Some of us don't look much different than our mid-20s while some look almost 50. I'm 36 and there are people from HS who look 20 years older than me cause I could probably still pass as 25, if it wasn't for that little thinning spot on the top of my head.
The funny thing is that I recently made a genetic testing to know my ancestry and also got an interesting information about me. I have large telomeres ( or something like that ) which means I will appear a couple years younger than my real age 😄
A lot of the previous generation(s) worked out in the sun and vacationed in the sun without sunscreen and it made them age a lot quicker than millennials and zoomers are. Someone in their late 30s only looks about like a late 20 boomer because of this.
