Individuality


Don't you just hate when you're trying to be yourself AND be different, but people keep copying you?

I know they say imitation is the highest form of flattery, but when you're trying to be unique it annoys the f@^& out of me.

So I'm putting it on you. I need to change the year I was born. Too many 99 year olds cropping up. It's starting to feel trendy and I don't do trendy. Lol

So here's the question I ask you: What year should I put for my birth year? But there are some things to take into consideration.

1. Everyone tells me I look younger than I am.
2. I feel 26 and tell everyone my age is an experienced 26.
3. If I bring the age back down to within the realm of realistic, how much emphasis does age play in your equation of attraction level? I don't want to misrepresent, I just want to add a level of anonymity.
4. I really like my Chinese zodiac sign so if I want to keep it I have to choose a year or birth either 12 years before of after my actual year.

So what year do you think I use?

1. 1990
2. actual - 12 years
3. actual + 12 years
4. actual year

Ma'am....In YOUR case we like the idea of +12. Maintains the anonymity you desire, while also winnowing out the ageists. If they like you at +12, they probably truly like YOU, not an image of you they based on their "correct" age.

Aaaaaaaahhhhh!!! MA'AM!!! ? If you're trying to shock me into looking my age, white hair is a bit past the mark. ;P But the rest is pretty sound reasoning. Thanks for your input!

I wouldn't use actual year. This place has poor security so letting out your actual birth year might not be smart in the long run. Plus or minus 3 years is 'acceptable' for some here.

When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

I see. But I NEVER do what's acceptable. Lol. Plus, then I would lose my Chinese sign. Dilemmas, dilemmas...

It doesn't have any bearing on what some guys going think anyway.All 18-49
olds are looking for something.They don't discriminate.It's only women who
are concerned about ages.So you get to keep your chinese zodiac!

Using more than all the road!

I'd say Age +12 (or 24) if you were choosing. But age is just a number. I've seen some 18 year olds more mature than some older adults and senior citizens so it doesn't really play too much into anything.
