Saying I appear younger than I am has nothing to do with how well I think of myself...it's based on the countless people who ask me if I moved her for school, or roll their eyes when I talk about college like it was a long time ago because they think it's only been a year or two, and so on.
V - my mom was 36, divorced with two kids when she met my 25 year old father at the time....ya never know haha
(though, he had to pursue her for a few months before she gave in and went on that first date)
