I'd say that "being told you look older" needs a much steeper drop-off. I don't know anyone who by age 30 is stoked on being perceived as older than their actual age.

I teach underwater photography at a local university as a side gig. Being around college students all the time ever since I was in college has made me feel young at heart.

We had a night dive a while back, but a thunderstorm came out of nowhere right before the dive, so we canceled and decided to go to a local pub for dinner. As we were walking in, all my students were getting carded, and the door man was taking it seriously. He was shining a light through the IDs, bending them, etc.

When I got to the door with my card, he waved his hand and said, "You're good."

That one hurt.

I'm 39 and people talk to me like i'm in my 20es. If someone tells me i look "older" they mean i look 30. So i sure as hell don't mind if people would tell me i look at least my age
