Just for fun, seen a few posts about asking " How old do you think I am"
No filters and had a glass of wine but sock it to me 😁 Lighthearted of course! Smile

That Web site is a pile of shit. It said I looked 59 but put my nan at 24, she's 87 😂

I'd have guessed 40 for yours Zena. Out of curiosity why did you put your pic up? What if everyone had said 55, would you not have been bothered? I always wonder when I see these threads.

Sagradafamiliar · 19/01/2020 00:05

@zenasfuck

I know.

SwedishEdith · 19/01/2020 00:05

zenasfuck Are you the op?

guineapig1 · 19/01/2020 00:06

Anywhere between 30 and 60 Confused

Downunderduchess · 19/01/2020 00:09

I’m 53 so I always compare if someone seems older/younger than me when guessing age, I would have thought older than me. But I have a fuller face. This pic of me is from 2 weeks ago, so quite recent.

zenasfuck · 19/01/2020 00:10

@enidbutton
I put my pic up because I was shocked at the range of ages guessed about the op and I guess it was a little experiment for me. See you guessed me at 40, which is a few years older than I am, yet I am consistently told in rl that I'm much younger looking, I find that interesting

If everyone had said I looked 55 I wouldn't have cared a jot, it's just a number isn't it

zenasfuck · 19/01/2020 00:11

@sagradafamiliar well in that case thank you, that's very kind

Kalifa · 19/01/2020 00:12

55? ish..

MeanwhileAtNumber98 · 19/01/2020 00:15

53

AmelieTaylor · 19/01/2020 00:15

I’d say mid-late 40’s chin & neck but
Younger eyes. Probably not likely though 🤣

Definitely not older

You’re brave though, I wouldn’t post a photo in this bear pit!

AmelieTaylor · 19/01/2020 00:18

@Downunderduchess

Fucking hell. You look a LOT younger than 53. I’m late 40’s and you look a lot younger than me. You might need to compare other people to other people you know rather than to yourself as you’ve ‘aged’ (or rather NIT aged) very well 😊

ivykaty44 · 19/01/2020 00:18

I have no idea how old people look,
If I said to many birthdays I’d risk being unkind, to few and I’m being to kind

Why though does it matter

Look after your body not for how it looks but for how comfortable it is going to be as you age

ConsolidateTheBiscuits · 19/01/2020 00:20

Well there may not be any filters, but definitely soft focus. I'd say mid 50's as I run a social group for women of that age and you look around the same age.

EnidButton · 19/01/2020 00:22

Zena All the women in my family look younger than they are so I suppose I add a couple of years on when guessing. I look in the mirror and definitely think I look my age (same as yours) but others think I'm a lot younger. So maybe it's how someone moves, talks, dresses etc and can't be captured on a pic. It is interesting. I'm envious of your thick skin in posting one though, I'd be too scared. Grin

EnidButton · 19/01/2020 00:25

Down I'd have guessed 55. My oldest Dsis is 58 and looks about the same as you so that's what I'd use to judge.

Downunderduchess · 19/01/2020 00:27

@AmelieTaylor thanks, I definitely feel my age though. I’m trying to lose weight this year as the older I get the aches & pains get worse, being fitter may help with that, I might also end up losing my chubby face. Swings & roundabouts!

Pannalash · 19/01/2020 00:30

It is quite hard to tell from one picture though. On the other thread I would have put you at late 40s- early 50s zenasfuck not to be unkind, but you look glam in that older woman way (that’s a compliment as I like that ‘grown-up’ look) but you say you are often being taken for younger so it may be more to do with your figure or clothes. Also most people look loads younger these days.

willothewispA · 19/01/2020 00:37

50

zenasfuck · 19/01/2020 00:39

@miniguiness that's interesting as my day to day look is less make up, jeans and trainers etc

I do look much older when I have full make up and am glammed up

Emmmie · 19/01/2020 00:49

You look beautiful OP. Your eyes are lovely and very kind looking 💐
