On Friday I had lunch with a co-worker. She's 42 & she told me she just got a "New Makeover"--with a new hairstyle & new makeup. I told her that she looks really great--and she talked about how great she feels. She was smiling and happy.. A few minutes later, I told her that my real age--that I'm 30 years old. All the sudden, her face dropped, she Stopped Smiling, & looked Nervous & a little sad--and I could tell that her mouth was shaking a bit. She stopped talking. I asked her if she was 'Okay'--she said... "Yes-I'm just waiting for you to tell me your real age".......
I didnt say anything--but people often mistake me for being in high school because I look very, very young. I dont wear makeup but people tell me I am "pretty" and "beautiful".. I dont, drink or smoke, & I take viatmins to stay youthful. I have modeled before--but I'm not stuck up...Later on, she kept asking me my "real age"..
WHY DID MY CO-WORKER HAVE SUCH A STRONG REACTION LIKE THAT?
