I'm 32 and it's begun to matter a little more to me. Most of the time though I am willing to tell how old I am. Often the conversation that leads up to it is about something that a younger person would not do or say that makes them question my age.
For example, I was at Hardees last weekend and one of the guys there knew me. Another guy, the one who was a cashier said a phrase and I said to the other guy Iis that a new thing they want you to say now?" The fellow I knew laughed and said, "Yeah they didn't make us say as many stupid stuff when you worked here." The cashier did a double take at me then and almost stared, then he said, "You worked here?? When?" When I answered about 8 years ago he said - "Wooh, So you must be?! Nevermind, whatever it is I wouldn't have guessed it." I said "32" and his response was - "Nope, wouldn't have guessed." His incredulous expression said that I did not look 32 to him so me actually BEING that age did not bother me. It's LOOKING that age that would bother more.
