As the title says please tell me how old you think I am.

If you know me say hi!

Can I say a huge thank you to all posters who actually took the time to guess my age, accurate (52), older or younger.

To the other posters who decided to comment without having a guess, why bother? You missed the point!

@SmidgenofaPigeon

You’re not really that nice are you OP?
I try to be, but you you know how it is, some people are just tiresome!

I can imagine how this thread has gone so not reading it but I was going to say 45 Smile

'Sweet and friendly' certainly don't spring to mind Grin.
SmidgenofaPigeon · 20/04/2021 22:14

I don’t know. You seem really self defensive and prickly when anyone says anything you don’t agree with, or questioned what you might want from the thread, your manner is condescending, and you’re not afraid to throw out insults yourself at those posters who haven’t danced to your tune.

All this faux ‘niceness’. I don’t buy it.

kickergoes · 20/04/2021 22:14

You look great OP, I'd have said at least 10 years younger from the first photo. Threads like these never go well, I'm guessing at least one person said 70+ Hmm

Irony!?

Oh but OP, it’s not irony at all. I’m not the one posting a thread asking people to flatter me, and getting bitchy when they don’t, and claiming I’m so friendly and kind and nice, am I?

Where have I asked to be flattered? I asked for honest opinions on my age. I also explained my reasons for doing it. Despite all that you continue to spend time on a thread you appear to dislike and that doesn't align with your own thinking. Why?

I'm not really sure what your gripe is or why you're still here!

I’ll comment on what I like thanks Smile it is a public forum, designed to invite discussion, and you may expect a range of responses. Some of those won’t be exactly what you court, but people are entitled to leave them nonetheless.

I totally agree. I imagine you'll never answer my question so I'll leave it there. I get the impression you like the last word so I'll invite you to have it on my thread. Please don't be offended but I've spent enough time engaging with you. I've nothing more to add.

SmidgenofaPigeon · 20/04/2021 22:41

The question about your age? I did, before you revealed. I said 47, because I decided to err on the side of kindness, and shaved a few years off.

Enjoy the rest of your evening Smile

MiaRoma · 20/04/2021 22:42

You look lovely. Maybe 58 - 62? Great skin and hair

ZenNudist · 20/04/2021 22:50

I would have guessed 40 to 45. You dont have crows feet or a saggy face so you look younger than 52. I do know a few young looking 52s so you're not unusual for your age. It would have been cruel to guess older when you could have been a older looking 35!

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 20/04/2021 22:53

Awwwww is that a baby lamb youre holding in one of the pics

VaggieMight · 20/04/2021 23:16

I guessed your age, but it's irrelevant. In terms of your appearance, you have a glow, look happy and have nice skin and good hair. Definitely more Nigella Lawson than Gillian McKeith.

bedtimeshoes · 20/04/2021 23:45

Hair colour suits you and you have great skin and lips. Glasses make you look older. A photo without glasses might change my answer, but I'd say 35

bedtimeshoes · 20/04/2021 23:47

Just read your actual age - wow! You don't look 52

Downunderduchess · 20/04/2021 23:52

If anyone wants a psychic reading I am available. I am 100% accurate, because I knew EXACTLY how this thread was going to go.

Onlinedilema · 21/04/2021 06:17

I'm amazed you are 52 I would have said younger.

Ah go on and tell us the lottery numbers please Grin

Yes, these threads always end up like this.

I think there are two things op can take from this thread; most people think she looks lovely and younger than her age, (not that it matters). And, there are some slightly strange people on t'interweb who can be quite spiteful for no apparent reason whatsoever Confused

55? I like the haircut.

@Janegrey333 you are making an embarrassment of yourself now.
