Short girls - ever think men may think you're underage?
Cause I was just at the grocery store and saw a short girl. She looked like my ex-roomie so I did a double take and she smiled at me, but cause of her height and such I wasn't sure if smiling back would be appropriate. Is this something that happens often to short women? Or is it like me being thick?

1. No. Even though I look younger than my actual age mostly
I'm five foot even. Perhaps when I was in my early twenties...but really, not that I really recall.
I think its you being thick....;-)
Oh it also helps that I have plenty of feminine curves..mature looking curves....:)

2. i am five feet tall. i do not believe this happens to me
though people have always guessed i am younger than i am and i attribute this to my height

when i was 12-18 people i was older than my age, after 18 they consistently guess younger. weird.

3. Before I started to get wrinkles, maybe
but now that I'm truly old it's completely obvious that I'm very mature :-P

5. My old roommate had that problem a lot.
She was very small-boned, but a bit chubby. So her frame looked like a younger girl's frame, and her weight hid a lot of her curves.

Her fiance, on the other hand, started going bald in his mid-20s and usually has a beard, so he looks older than he actually is. So there have been one or two times when someone actually thought they were father and daughter. THAT's just kinda weird.

6. Um, no. Not me. I may be short, but I'm still over 40.
I don't think anyone is mistaking me for jailbait. :P

9. i'm 5'5(short in my family at least) and guys always think i'm older than i am
i've been offered drinks on several occassions in restaurants by guys, and get hit on by older guys. i assume they don't know my age. either that, or else there are a lot of pervs in the world. :rofl:

10. Probably truer when I was younger
I'm 5 ft even and I do still look younger than I am. I don't look 46 at all. Probably has something to do with not having kids. :P :rofl:

But, I do look possiby 10 years younger than I am, but no I don't get passed over as too young anymore.
