Thanks @Hannahlouise4026

BunnytheBee · 06/04/2020 22:26

Trudisterriblefringe, you look fab with or without, I would say late 30s to very early 40s

40s? Really?

squishedgrapes · 06/04/2020 22:30

I think you look around 27, @TrudysTerribleFringe

lourac4 · 06/04/2020 22:33

BunnytheBee, I actually tried to edit my post after when I looked more closel but couldn’t, not used to posting really, in hindsight she looks about 34/35. Sorry Trudysterriblefringe.

menthollyinsane · 06/04/2020 22:34

@TrudysTerribleFringe I was thinking more along the lines of 28.

I can't be the only one in real life who hates it when people ask me to guess their age?

I always knock off a good ten years then have to do the fake surprised bit.

TrudysTerribleFringe · 06/04/2020 22:43

I didn't take any offence at all @lourac4. No need to apologise.

Thanks everyone Grin

@Daisiest in real life I do that but on an anonymous forum I would just be honest.

Monty27 · 07/04/2020 02:53

I prefer the softer look without makeup. @52TrudysTerribleFringe you are truly beautiful looking. 😄

Do people ask? I can't emember the last time someone asked me.... I can't understand the obsession on MN though. It's getting more frequent.

ILikeyourHairyHands · 10/04/2020 01:23

I'm 97.

Downunderduchess · 10/04/2020 02:04

Noooo!!! This never ends well.

ILikeyourHairyHands · 10/04/2020 02:25

I'm obviously not young.

I'm a big middle-ager.

And I also don't take this seriously.

FagashJackie · 10/04/2020 02:32

You all look very nice.

Thrashscar · 10/04/2020 02:33

@ILikeyourHairyHands I think you’re quite striking like a 90s grunge-y arty muse!

Thrashscar · 10/04/2020 02:35

@tigerbear I think you look around 36/7

It’s amazing what a difference smiling makes. I always rate the people smiling as being younger than they are but the moody looking people always look way older to me!

Iwannabeadored20 · 10/04/2020 02:43

@ILikeyourHairyHands

I think you are stunning. Fab cheekbones

ILikeyourHairyHands · 10/04/2020 02:57

Sideways.

I don't much like long hair draped around a face at all, its quite ageing.
But the lighter coloured hair is better for you than the dark. But I did guess your correct age !

PrimeraVez · 10/04/2020 05:00

This is such a weird thread. Why would you post unless you’re fishing for compliments?
And why does it matter how old you look? Would you start a thread saying ‘guess what I ate for dinner last Tuesday!’ Or ‘guess what shoe size I am!’

ZaraW · 10/04/2020 05:55

I'm sure this is being discussed on Reddit. The last post a few months ago on guessing my age was and the comments were not nice.

TKAAHUARTG · 10/04/2020 06:42

You know on the X factor when those kids were absolutely shite? When they could not sing for shit and their mums should not have bigged them up so much that they became delusional? Shouldn’t someone have been more realistic with @ILikeyourHairyHands and told her that “yes, actually you look at least late 40s-mid 50s, why do you keep imagining that you look younger?”

Maisiecow · 10/04/2020 07:27

Completely agree with PrimeraVez. Why does age need to be so important? No wonder ageism is so rife in society! I think people can look fantastic at any age, but everyone does generally look their age (even with Botox, fillers etc).

ILikeyourHairyHands · 10/04/2020 08:39

I think you're misunderstanding me TK, I don't think I look younger, I've never thought I looked younger and I put no value on looking young. Which is why I always post on these threads. I don't want a load of people telling me I look 35 or whatever, I know I don't. I do have very positive self-image though, which is frowned upon for some reason.

I thank you for your comments though, I wear mu face with absolute pride
