I'm 43 but most people would peg me at 35 at the most. I find this really annoying in the work place so much so that I'm often embarrassed when I reveal my real age to my colleagues.

A few years ago at a corporate function, a secretary who didn't know better put me together with a bunch of summer students because she though I was one of them.

Today we talked about age with some colleagues and when they heard that I'm 43 they made some comments of how they would never peg me at 43. The whole thing was innocuous but I was just embarrassed. Maybe I was really embarrassed at being 43 than anything.

I think it's better for a guy to look older than his age than younger. Women are different of course.
