Do you ever see someone you know irl, who’s your own age and wonder if you are aging the same way?

Maybe they look so great you’re impressed how they’ve escaped time and believe you have too. Or maybe their aging is so significant, you wonder if it’s crept it’s way on your face so gradually that it’s unnoticed to you, yet so apparent to others.

Some of the kids i went to school with look much older than they should as they moved or travelled lots in hot climates and lived the good life. I don't think I look as old but probably had less fun.

sometimes I see people I used to know when I was younger and boom! It hits me how they have aged - they really look their age. And since sometimes I haven’t seen them since we were young, it’s like they aged instantly. I wonder if I make that same impression on people.

@DoubleRings yes it's possible as we see our faces each day we don't realise we are looking much older than we think. I know I am attracted to men in my age group and not younger ones.
