Looking young for your age - a curse then blessing

Wondering if anyone else can relate to this,

Growing up I always looked young as fuck for my age, which was very embarrassing. Imagine being 23 and looking 13....that was me. I always hated looking so young for my age, ALWAYS being mistaken and treated much younger. You are treated how you are perceived...if you look like a kid you get treated like one.


I remember always saying this shit to myself during the hard times.... "It'll pay off eventually"

And it did. Now at 37 years old I look like I'm 24, and people are always impressed now, whereas in the past it was more like "oh really you are that old.... damn you look so young I thought you were in grade 4 not high school" Looking young for your age pays off EVENTUALLY haha but for a long time it's super lame. Ironically when growing up, it makes you look under-developed and weak, like you are just not up to grade. But then as you get older and look youthful for your age, it's more impressive like wow you are doing quite well! Fucking hilarious.

Anyone else experience this? Anybody here 60 and look 40? I'm going for that lol.
