Iโm baby-faced which keeps me sane but that resolve was shook a couple days ago when an 18 year old (that was born the year I graduated high school) found out my age and said I was old enough to be his dad ๐
Having. A babyface is kinda weird. 20 year olds talk to me like i had any idea what they are talking about. I'm always like: haha yeah no, i'm actually old.
The other day i was standing in line and there was a family behind me. The mom did some Smalltalk with me and just for the fact that they had kids, i talked to her like i would to an old person. Like she was giving me some weird advice for some reason. Then i put one and one together and realised that they had a child when they were 20 and he was now 10-ish and they are actually 10 years younger than me.
i'm a millennial and i have family members who are younger than i am and they are grandparents several times over now. lol
