im 29 and i know i was blessed with young looks. im thankful for it but sometimes it makes me feel like im not truly a MAN. i still get called "young man" alot and it irks me sometimes especially when its by someone thats not that much older than me. i was in Walmart earlier today and the cashier who didnt look older than 37-38 called me "young man". anybody else ever feel this way?

I'm 33 and I get "young man" all the time. I'm told I have a young face.

Strangely enough when I was younger people thought I was older, now it's reversed. Especially when I'm dressed casual. Losing a lot of weight helped too I guess.

That should make you feel GOOD if anything.

:heh: It do get annoying sometime even tho it's a gift. I remember I got the ultimate ether when I was a senior in HS and was walking to the bus stop.

And some nikka rolled up in a car and said "Yo the Middle School Bus just left".

Insignificant posting from an insignificant poster
Man... you's an insecure ass mothafukka!


Gawt damn. You's a cool guy, but saying you feel undermined/inferior by older folks complimenting you on your youthfulness and vitality? I'm starting to question your self esteem my breaghamstein.


The only people who get defensive about being called young are teenage bytches who can't go clubbin' but dress like their favorite pop idols.


I'm praying this is troll thread because this shiit reeks!!!


Damn, must be testifying in the court by myself... cuz my only request is;


"CAN I GET A WITNESS (for this bytchness)?!?!"

Im 25, get called young man by older people, people think im 19 or younger but dont feel nooo way about it, i take it as a compliment. Doesnt make me feel less of a man, thats all inside of me i know how i conduct myself, my maturity, i handle my business.

Trust me you'd feel a lot worse if people thought you were 10 years older than what you are.

Can't believe you're complaining. Cats envy you for that. I'm 25 looking like I'm 18-20 when I'm clean cut. So far I'm loving it. Just think if you continue to live well you're gonna age gracefully.

"20 years in the game looking 17." :win:
