I used to act like a child even though i m 17 but certain things have happened this year that have made me mature a lot. and when i miss those days but i cant go back to them it wouldn't be the same

I'm 17 but refuse to act my age at times since Maturity is over rated. People who grow up are not much fun to be around, but those who stay young at heart are normaly the best since they understand a playful side more. ^_^

I broke the 30 mark last year, and I get more excited over a new video game than my son does. I dress up in costumes, play online, and watch cartoons (ok, anime...)

Genrally no, I don't act my age. Sometimes I'll go grocery shopping, and see other moms and their kids and think how glad I am that I never gave in to time. Maybe my body will get older, but I don't have to act like I've got curlers in my hair and a pocket full of coupons. I can shop savvy and have a good time too!!

So many people tend to forget how to have fun when doing normal everyday things as they get older. It's sad. I'm pretty sure I'll still have the urge to use my shopping cart as an impromptu skateboard and race my family to the car for a long time.

As long as you're polite and remember not to cause a big disturbance that might irritate people - who CARES what others think? It's proven that smiling and laughing are the best healing agents we have!

people normally thought i'm older ^^;;
maybe because i'm more mature than those in my age, both mentally and physically .___.

Im 51 and my granddaughters always telling me to act my age. Life is short enjoy what you want to enjoy. You can never be too young. I still listen to current music she likes and sometimes even get up and dance around for the fun of it. I love doing things that are silly and makes people laugh.

I am 18 and I do not 'act' my age. XD lol What's that mean anyway..? ..acting..an age.. I'm usually more along the lines of a 7-10 year old, but sometimes my parents call me 12 lol not that far. I still like to tiptoe around, bounce, skip, and catch bugs and lizards-because the snakes here are poisonous. :3 I think too I am underage in my mind. According to family there's a lot about life I should know by know, but don't. o-o Hm...

I pretty much never act my age. I'm a child at heart and I feel like I always will be one. For example, take the people in my class (2010). They wear 'grown-up' clothes, like someone 'sophisticated' dresses and such, like they're dressing semi-fancy-casual everyday. But myself? I prefer wearing something bright, tons of bracelets, necklaces, and everything. I consider myself a decora-kandi kid, so I'm usually incorporating that into my style of fashion. I love being silly, outgoing, bubbly, and just having a fun time. I'm not ready to grow up. I mean, I can be mature when it calls for it usually, but I feel like becoming too mature can make you serious, and I'd rather just live life up, you dig?

Most of the time I don't, but the other yeah I do.

I am at that age where I could be considered an adult, but as for my behavior, it is entirely dependent upon my company and emotional state whether I truly "act my age" or not.
When I am among colleges at work, I will, obviously, try to be more mature and sound without too much silliness. When at school, I try to hold a mature attitude and not appear too much of a git. When with friends, however, I range from being outright outrageous in my crazy antics complete with violent and snort-laden laughter and much childish giggling to being simply giddy with laughter, trying to hold back more.
So, in general, no, I don't act my age.

Depends on the situation. If its an event that i have to be responsible in, im responsible.
but if its relaxed im pretty childish.
I love chalk drawings!!

and yes i still play hide n seek. I got stuck under the sink once, boy it was hot.

I just wish i was a child again.

im 17 and i dont act my age.. i love playing games and the zoo and lollies and ice cream and cake and lots and lots of fun i love fun i would do anything that will get my heart pumping and the things everyone says what you cant do that! :insane: but i do with my best friend we do everything together ;) anything you can think of we would do it or have done it everyone says we are crazy and too happy but hey you only have one life might as well use it and do whatever you want to (unless its something bad hehe) =3

I think my age is a weird number..19..how do you act 19? I can make guesses for 18, 13, etc.. but not 19. I mean I am not like an 18 year old... but I don't know. I think.. I don't act my age because I have very childish tendencies, but for the most part..I act like me? so I don't know how old I act XD

No, I'm 21, but I act and feel 16-17. D: I wanna grow up though. I dream of growing up.

No, i don't. Not really anyway. I act more like a 15 year old...sometimes even younger. I love playgrounds, and zoo's, and aquariums, and parks. I like playing games, and i hate working. I hate jobs. =( I wish Neverland was a real place....

BTW i'm 19.

Dependson the day, sometimes older, sometimes younger, sometimes right on the mark. *sips tea*

I act like.. A regular 14 year old girl. Cept' less drama and bitchiness.

I just got the I'm proud of you because I've realized how much mature you have got speech from my dad today so I'm guessing I act older than I am.

I'm 41 and I tend to just act like myself. I don't think about an age and how I'm "supposed" to act. This last year though I probably seem to be acting older than my age because of all the pain I was in, I'm hoping that passes soon.

Appently I don't act my age for others always take me for being older.
I guess it's kind of flattering though.

I am almost 24, and i act like im 17 :) I just don't want to act like a grown-up!

For the most part I don't.
Many of my friends have told me I am way too mature and some have even come to call me 'old man' even though I am only 20. Of course they gave me that nickname when I was around 12-13.

At the same time I don't drink alcohol, I don't go to parties or go clubbing or anything of the sort. Rather, I spend my time reading books, listening to podcasts of the news and watching the news; learning new things/etc. So in that sense I guess I am just like some old man.

However I also have a lot of dreams and fantasies; I like playing MMORPGs and I like Anime/Manga. I can't see too many old people liking those things.
