How old would you say..

[Opheliasgoldenwine]

The person that wrote this was? Forgetting what's written, judging on the handwriting alone, how old would you say they were?

Posting here for traffic.

TIA

2 years old according to the very pushy mums at the local prep school

looks a bit like mine

I'd say an adult , female, and educated.
Could be anywhere from 35 to late 60s I'd say. Older than that people tend to write in a more traditional joined up style.

My BIL writes like that and always has done, so any age whatsoever.

I've got a crick in my neck now OP from bending to the right :)

34 . . .a woman . . . with dark hair - based on the random capitalisation but very straight writing considering it's on unlined paper.

Are you going to tell us why OP? All this intrigue......

Come on OP, I've got to start cooking.

I wouldn't say necessarily educated or with a high standard of written English though tbh.

Random capital letters in the middle of sentences is a grammatical error rather than handwriting related.

If you read something I’d written by hand I’m sure you’d think I was ‘thick as pig shit’ and had no education above age 7 and wasn’t very intelligent or educated. My hand writing isn’t great, I struggle with it and have always mixed capitals and lower case. It’s messy but most can read it fine.

I do have a degree and a pretty good job, so educated past aged 7 and not thick as pig shit - dyslexic yes. I had a reader/scribe for school exams then computer at uni.

Can’t believe some of the judgments on one sentence and wondering the point of the thread

Definitely an adult.

Anyone over 18

@cariboa58 are you saying your handwriting got worse from writing so much???? I thought it would be the opposite? It’s amazing what I learn on here. That’s mad!

I write so little now by hand, I should do it more.

I ask because I've been told my handwriting hasn't developed over the age of an average seven year old according to a close friend who is a teacher

Thanks all for your comments; Jessica I do indeed have dark hair . Blue; I hope you wake up happier tomorrow and not so grumpy

Sincere apologies if my comment caused any offence.
Having a really crap time right now, and mental filter obviously let me down.
I'll ask for it to get pulled.

How old are you though OP?

Thank you Ophelia
You just made my eyes leak.
Sorry, everyone.

Blue, don't stress, we've all been there and it's okay
Great 20

OP Your writing is nothing like a child's (I've read 1000s of kids writing in my former career.)
You have moved on from the overtly rounded style of a young child. Your letter 'm' and 'h' are 'pointy' (there is a proper word for this but it escapes me.) You don't join letters routinely in words as children do 'because t's what they have been told to do!) but have a mix of joined / cursive and unjoined letters. Childlike writing in my opinion is very rounded and uniform where the writer has not developed their personal style at all and is simply writing as they think they ought to.

Are you a Sagittarius, who had an unusual sense of humor?

OP my hand writing is a messier version of yours so by my standards yours really is lovely and what i try and fail to aim for.

Def looks like adult hand writing.

3luckystars Nope, how come?

@Bluetrews25 I've sent you a PM

I'm just a bit embarrassed as she said if I wrote a letter she wouldn't believe it was written by an adult

Doesn't really matter though, does it? Even if your writing were as bad as all that (and I think it's fine), you can type anything important.

Your friend on the other hand...
