I haven't looked 17 since I was 13. In high school I went to a K-12 school. A teacher in the elementary school asked me if I was a parent of one of her students. I was 16.
Now, you and I are the same age and I get asked why I'm not a mother, married, or engaged as if I'm running out of time to complete those major life events.
My advice to you is to enjoy both your youth, and your youthful appearance.
The only upside to looking older that I've noticed is that I'm afforded more respect than many of my peers.
Is it normal for a 21 year old to look 17?
