Guessing a woman's age

What the heck do you say if a woman asks you to guess her age?? I usually just laugh and say she doesn't look a day over 18. I don't know what I'd do if a women insisted that I take a serious guess. Just turn tail and run?

I would have to guess she is proud of the way she looks and thinks she looks younger than her actual age. So just complement her and try to avoid saying a number which could get you into trouble. Thank goodness for hair dye!

I've always thought that question is like playing with fire and refuse to play this game. If one hears the wrong answer, I'm sure that it can have nasty repercussions. Safe answer OP.

Unless she is 20 I always guess ten years younger than I think.
It may be right. But if not, she's complimented by the error.

Tell her she doesn't look a day over 87.


Do you ask her age and then she tells you to guess or does she just randomly ask you to guess her age?

Has anyone besides me noticed how some women report ages much lower than their actual ages in the narrative portion of their profile, not realizing their age in the box above it is calculated on the birthdate they list on their application?

I always guess younger if I'm trying to get a relationship with her; but I guess older if I'm trying to get rid of her.

Yes, turn and run. She's setting you up.... I learned early on not to guess anyone's age.

I have an idea! Why don't you tell her what you really think? If we all were honest, perhaps we wouldn't have so many deluded peeps on this site thinking they all look decades younger than they are, and attempting to act on that delusion.

After goofing up too many times ( tried the subtracting numbers) I avoid that one!!!! I can't tell ages anymore!
ANYway, that's like asking..."Do I look fat???"
Nope... if I were a guy? Would NOT touch THAT one...I'd play deaf...and dumb.

They normally ask me how old i am, then when i tell them, they don't believe me so i don't really win lol

This is like asking if a certain dress makes her look fat, or do you think I am getting fat, etc........

If a woman asks me to guess her age, I usually guess at least 10 years older then I truly think, to let her know how stupid that question is, and to get a special rise out of her much older sedate body........

I have been at some bars and local clubs where some very attractive younger women might be, and show some interest in this older man, and the conversation does from time to time pass by the age thing, and I have won more shots betting and winning then I ever care to mention.

Sometimes I wonder if this is a good or bad thing......to have women think one is much younger then you truly are, or that you are that much older in the first place......

Just my opinion......

It is a crappy thing to do to someone because unless you "guess" years younger than she really is, she is likely not going to be pleased with your answer, essentially setting you up to fail.

I would tell her I am not good at guessing ages and if she pressed, well either high or low depending on how much she is starting to tick you off. Or you could go for really reversing what she is doing to you and telling her that if you do, she has to guess how big your wanker is, that would probably shut her up.

Up until my mid twenties I looked five to ten years older, which was cool, then about 30 I started looking younger. On a good day I still do so the age thing works well for me but I would never put a man or woman on the spot and tell them to guess my age.
