I'm dating this guy, he's 38. He's got an awesome personality and is fun to be around. The only thing that bothers me is his wrinkles. He has more wrinkles than a 70 year old man, and I'm not exaggerating. I know he smokes and is out in the sun, but it seems to be more than just that. I seriously wonder if he had been on meth. We were talking one day about drugs, and the only thing he's ever tried supposedly has been pot. But is there a way I could tell if he's ever taken meth before? I was looking at meth before and after pics the other night, and it sure reminded me of this guy.

That would be impossible to diagnose over the Internet with the limited info you gave us. You could take a sample of his hair and go to a pharmacy and get a home drug testing kit and send it off to see if he is currently doing drugs. Old habits are hard to break. Make sure you get a little root in with the hair sample. You can yank one out and tell him it was a gray hair or something.
People age differently and the sun does not help but no one has seen this guy on here but you so there is absolutely no way even from a picture we could tell. heavy Meth users usually have very very corroded front teeth but not always and other things can cause that to like poor dental hygiene..

There are lots of reasons that could be the cause of premature aging. Here are some:
The following medical conditions are some of the possible causes of Premature aging as a symptom. There are likely to be other possible causes, so ask your doctor about your symptoms.
Smoking
Sun exposure
Hypothyroidism
Down syndrome
Progeria
I'd maybe ask if out of curiousity what it is.
If you honestly believe it may be meth, it is true that meth users are marked by deteriorating teeth and premature aging. I'm not sure if there is any way to tell if he has done meth before other than just asking.

Stress and a bad diet are the most prominent causes of premature aging. Not to mention all the chemicals around us all the time. These all play parts in it. Also, the sun ages the skin and we must not forget genetics. Some people are just genetically pre-disposed to aging quicker!
