looking older?
so i'm 18 years old, female
whenever i'm with my friends who are all younger than me, everyone thinks i'm always the youngest!! it's like an insult to me. once my friends were talking about going to the club and this one guy asked if i was going and he was like wait, are you old enough to go? and one of my friends was like ha ha she is the oldest one out of all of us! it just makes me feel sad. i don't want to look like a little girl, who would want to? to me, i don't think i look so young but everyone else seems to think so. it's not like a wear young girl clothes and i wear make-up and do my hair? it's just something that bugs me and it's kind of an insult everytime someone thinks i'm the youngest when realy i'm older than everyone else ! is there anything i could try, or anything i could do to try and look my age?

So I am in the same boat as you I am 31 years old and I look like I am 18
Every time I go to the store or go to the bar I get carded. When I was
Younger it bothered me that I looked younger then I was, but now I am glad
I look young because when I am 40 I will look like I am 30 and that’s a
Great thing. Don’t worry about how old you look just go out and enjoy life
Because in know time at all you will be happy that you look younger then
You are. And all your friends will wish they had what you have, take care
And good luck.

You see that handsome devil in the picture on my advice column? He is happy when he gets carded for alcohol.
It might be an insult now, but trust me, when you are a little older you will thank your lucky stars for your youthful glow.
I realize that doesn't help now, but I'll tell you this, a lot of guys (myself included) dig the youthful look... many guys ask for your age because they just want to confirm you are old enough to come along in their reindeer games.
If you really want to look older, try a darker hair color, perhaps some black frame glasses, and an updated sophisticated wardrobe. (after all that glitter stuff is for kids)

i'm in the same situation as you, haha, exact same age and everything. here's what i do... if you wear a lot of makeup, maybe you shouldn't wear so much, because younger girls often do that in attempts to look older. so stick to more natural. maybe get bangs, wear your hair down, act more confident like you lead your crowd of friends. if you're short try yoga to improve your posture. wear sophisticated, simple desgns when you go out, im not talking like business suits but maybe dark wash jeans, pumps, and a simple shirt.. try accent your curves with v necks, push up bra, belts, tight jeans... that's all i can think of. it's not the worst thing in the world, a lot of guys like girls who look sweet and innocent, so there's a plus :)
