Age is a funny thing. I happen to believe it's just a number, but my friends that are turning the big 3-0 are comparing it to a doomsday event. Since I still feel so young at heart, I oftentimes forget how old I am, and while I'm not at the point where I feel I have to lie about my age, many people feel more comfortable keeping their age to themselves. So ladies, do tell, when people ask you your age, do you fib or tell the truth? And if you don't tell little white lies now, do you think you will?

Nope. I don't lie about my age. I will be 29 at the end of this month. I am soooo ready to be 30; I am just at the point in my life where I am ready for my twenties to be OVER. I don't think I will ever fib over my age either.
1Sometimes I say I'm 21 instead of 19...
2no lol.. i wanna look my age!! most of the time people think im 17 - 18 haha..... and im not lol.. so no i dont lie..
3Nope. I am 37, I still get carded and people still think I am 27.
4No, I always say I'm 20. And that's beause everyone seems to think I look younger then I am...which is ok because I will just age gracefully
5When i was like 16, though, people thoguht I was older then I was and I always played the part haha.
Nope. I'm 35 and happy to be. The last time I lied about my age was when I was 16 and wanted to be "more mature." Cuz lying about my age was so mature. *lol*
6Nope, so far I'm loving being 31.
7Nah, I can't see myself ever lieing about my age, but then again I do look quite a bit younger.
That being said, I turn the big 3-0 in a month, and I'm dreading it too!! I DON'T want my 20s to be over.
8I'm 26, and I do not lie about my age. In fact, I spend so much more time defending my age. I ALWAYS get carded and several times cashiers don't think it's me! Just the other day at the bank, the teller asked me what my plans were for the weekend and I told him I would take the kids to the pool before they closed for the season. He said, "I thought you had to be over 20 to have kids."
Oh and recently the electrician came knocking on the front door and when I opened it, he said "Hi, are you parents home?"
But all in all, I don't mind looking much younger than I am
9I look young for my age too. I always get carded and have been accussed of not being old enough to drive! I always tell the truth with my age--I cannot lie to save my life.
Frankly, I love the idea of getting older. I want to enjoy and embrace those years. I have the most elegant and graceful grandmother whom I do share some traits with. Maybe that is why I would embrace more than deny my age.
10I am 27 and I love it! I don't think I ever lied about my age, except to get into bars before I turned 21. I can't wait to turn 30, though!!!!!
11No, I don't lie about my age. If they ask me, I truthfully say that I'm 23 years old, but a lot of people think i'm like 19 or 20. I don't necessarily correct them when they tell me that.
12No reason for me to lie-39 and it's a blessing
13i used to lie when i was like 17-18 i always told i am 20 now that i am older i dont lie but even highschool girls in gym come and talk to me like they ask me which highschool i go!
14I'm 25 and there is no need to lie. Often people think I look and sound younger.
15Occasionally I forget how old I am and tell people the wrong year (this is sad - I'm only 26!), but I've never lied about it on purpose and don't imagine I ever will.
I get accused of lying about it though! No one ever believes I'm as old as I am. I'm always carded for alcohol, and I got carded for an R-rated movie last year. A couple years ago I was looking at jewelry in Macy's and an employee said, "Oh, are you looking for something for prom?" It's so frustrating! I'll probably appreciate this looking younger than I am thing much more when I'm older - my mother and grandmother both look way younger than they are - but for now it's just kind of annoying.
16Never lied about my age.
17nope, but being 21 theres nothing to lie about is there. I should really ask my mom this question.
18No, what's the point?
19I'm 32 and loving life!
20's were fun but to hard....
20Nope, never have! I'm 28 and look my age... if I lied people would think I've had such a rough life and looked too old for my age! hehe
21nope i never deliberately lied but sometimes people guess wrong and think i´m younger and i don't exactly correct them... out of all my friends i´m the youngest so i don't have a problem with people thinking i´m younger if they thought i was older now that´s another story. Oh by the way i´m 23.
22Yeah, all the time, I can't help it, sometimes a younger age slips out so fast I don't even realize I've lied!
23No
24I agree with alot of people on here...Im 24 soon to be 25, and I always get pinned for 19. When I'm walking around my college campus (I'm in grad school), people assume I am a new freshman. I too also get the prom thing year after year when dress shopping in the spring.
25Its annoying now, but I am sure when I am older I will be thrilled. My mom is 54 and looks like shes in her early 40's.
i'm 20, no need to lie.
26the only time i've ever lied about my age is when i snuck into bars when i was under 21. now i have no need to lie about it ever again!

28ppl shouldn't ask in general.
29no.. I don't see the point.
30People usually think I'm younger than I am, so there's not much reason to lie.
31i proudly say i am 33.
32From all the comments I've read it appears I may be the oldest one here. I'm 40 and I never lie about my age because I feel like I've earned every year!!! It also helps that I don't quite look my age. Just this weekend someone thought I was 22 years old and wanted to know if I needed assistance with college tuition!!!!LOL
33I do especially when filling out forms on the net that ask your birthdate. I am over 18 so I am not breaking any laws but I dont want anyone knowing what year I was born. Otherwise I could care less saying how old I am. I like seeing peoples expressions when they find out.
34I don't lie about it when asked but sometimes in RPG games I leave my info as 21.
35So it may seem it but I don't lie when asked.
i am 21 years old and i look like i could pass for a high school junior, not a college junior! it's a little ridiculous. i get carded for cigarettes! rather insulting... oh well, i suppose i will really enjoy it when i'm 30 and people assume i'm 23!
