Do you ever think that the opposite sex of you looks way older then you do? I was going through pictures tonight and even the younger guys, I thought looked a lot older then what they were. What is up with that?? Maybe they have lived a rougher life then I have...I don't know, I am trying to figure it out, any clues people??
Does anyone else feel this way???

errrr...no.

Being a mad keen surfer most of my life, and spending as much time outdoors as humanly possible without being a nomadic tribesperson...

I look older than Moses.


everyone looks younger than me!

I think it depends a lot on peoples life experiences that makes them appear older or younger than some. I've recently met a woman who will be 44 monday & I swear to god she looks 60-65 already!! But, she's lived a rough life to make her look older than she actually is. Then yesterday I met a woman who was 71 & didn't look a day over 55. I think it goes the same with the opposite sex as well.

My mom is already 60, but she only looks like an older sister of mine. So she either looks young for her age, or I look old for mine.

It boils down to stress.

When I went to a class reunion...EVERYONE looked short, miserable,dumpy, grey and wrinkly.

The common denominators were divorces, marriage and kids. I have had none. It is why I am so happy and laid back.

You got no idea how many times I heard..."You look so happy"..."You were the smartest one out of all of us"...."I want to trade lives"

I talked to the girl who did my taxes this year (we went to school together) we discussed this very subject and she agreed....everyone else aged horribly.

Maybe she IS your sister and she
has her freak on!!

Does that mean I'm the freak?

No.
But your dad is looking weird :-)

I told my Mom what you said and she's laughing.

This is so much better than shooting someone :-)

Soooooooo.....Red....

Is your Mom hot?

:)

I don't know -- did you look at the website photos when you said you were going through pictures? Because if you did, please don't base any wisdom on those.

Because, men say they are younger than they are, but are not smart enough to follow up on their false promises by putting in older photos.

Women, on the other hand, say they are younger than what they are, or mostly they say the truth, but they DO post photos of them which are five years old at least.

I know several women, not personally, but by admiring their photos, who have not changed their flagshsip photo for decades. They may put in more recent photos, but the fact remains, if they got 1 good photo of themselves, they leave it in there, come tea of high water.

Guys... I don't know. My photo here is at least stix months old. I look roughly the same, but even when I took it, I looked better on the photo than in real life.

Plus, photos don't tell the story. Not the entire story, anyway. You can guess the personality, the intellect, the moral values of a person from his or her texts, but there are things that are still hidden to the viewer: Their smell. Some people got halitosis, some have some incredibly stinky feet. Some fart all the time, and they can't help it. My uncle had contracted some lung disease in the camp during the war, and until he had an operation at age 30 in Canada, it was impossible to stay within five feet of him, his rotting lungs gave out such a powerful, disgusting stench. They removed his lobes of lung on one side entirely. He became healthy as a buck after that, he's 88 years old, and the only thing that does not work on him is his hearing.

That's another thing you can't tell from the website: voice, hearing, facial tics, hairlice, diseases, limp. Stuttering.

I vanna date your mom.

Extremely. :)

She's still in love with my dad.

Sometimes it does not pay to be the smartest.

The eminent student all through grade school, who was lightyears ahead of everyone else in his grades, became a schizophrenic alcoholic.

The studious girl, who was tall, beautiful (but not sexy, for some strange reason), the best student in the class after the guy, and to whom the world ought to have been her oyster, became a housewife to a microbioligist professor, bore seven children to him, he abused her and eventually she committed suicide.

But the dumb guy who could not read the grade four reader in grade eight became the logistics analyst at an ant-farm, and the second dumbest kid, who was tall, very good looking, moral and loud, became the highest-earner of us all in adulthood. He owns his own construction firm, has a beautiful wife, a gorgeous daugter, and the love and admiration of his family.

(Next time I will tell you how it PAYS to be the smartest, sometimes.)

Well, I don't mind that. :-) I am not the kind of control-freak who tells his girlfriend whom she can love and whom she can't.

She said you're very sweet. I can't post what my dad said.

Mmmmmmm Yummy!

:)

I am blushing. Please tell your mom and dad that with a daughter like theirs, their marriage must have been A-1 on the Richter scale.

If they ever go on to renew their vows in a public ceremony, I send my blessings to them.
