It seems to me to be something more than just aging - or maybe the responsibilities normally associated with age are what lead to aging. I was never sprightly, nor am I as sprightly as I may have been in my youth, but I appear (at least to my own subjective viewpoint) much younger "at heart" than my more responsible peers.

It has to be a factor to some degree. Dealing with those responsibilities can age you. Learning to deal with them can balance. So maybe it is just state of mind?

At almost 38 I'm pretty much the only one without noticeable grey hairs, and despite being the heaviest by at least 70% I'm not the one uttering manly groans when getting up from a chair. The lack of prominent wrinkles/worry lines I COULD blame on being a massive bloat, but maybe not?
Of course it could just be cosmic irony screwing everyone over equally, seeing as I'm the only one with nothing in particular to live for (so obviously I'm going to live the longest.)

^ See, I'm the opposite. Everyone I know who's my own age thinks I act like I'm about twenty years older than I actually am.

Are you, then, the responsible family man in a group of singles, or are you the strange grumpy old single?

When I was younger though, it was the other way around : at 23 I got mistaken for 50 by a 70-year old lady.
