I'm a 20 year old girl, and I feel like I used to look older a few years ago, than I do now. I matured very quickly (by 11/12 I was 5'6.5, the same height I am now) and everyone would always guess me to be much older and I looked the oldest in the class, and could easily get out of school for lunch by pretending I was in year 10 or something. By 14, I even managed to get into a few over 18 nightclubs without any ID. People would always be shocked when I told them my age, and most people guessed 18/19. When I was like 16, I smoked occasionally and could very easily get cigarettes (I was never asked for any ID) and alcohol too, I was never asked for id in newsagents/off licences, and people always assumed I was about 19.
Now though, I'm 20, and people my age, I feel look a lot older/more mature if that makes sense? Everyone assumes at uni that I'm 18 when they don't know me, the general reaction when I tell people my age is 'bloody hell! i thought you where 18!' and people tell me I look 'so cute' and that they feel they 'need to look out for me'. I always get ID'd now at nightclubs and some people have even guessed me to be 17! Meanwhile I feel like all my friends (some younger than me) all look a lot more mature/adult than I do and I feel like I now have a bit of a baby-face (which I don't feel I used too) and that I look like I just finished secondary school or something, I don't feel like a woman, I feel like a girl. I have a womanly/curvy body though I'm slim but I still think my face looks very young. Is this a good thing, and will I be grateful for it when I get older? Or is it not normal? Should I look older by this age? Do any of you feel like you look younger than you are?
