Today, I went out to dinner with my family. I was given a kids menu when the hostess sat us down. I'm 24. FML

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Grown up
Today, I went out to dinner with my boyfriend and his mom. The hostess asked if I needed "the kid's menu," remarked how I look "so grown up for your age," and asked what grade I was in. I said I'm in university. She laughed as if it was the best joke ever told. I'm 22. FML

Today, I walked into a restaurant with my parents to celebrate my Mom's birthday. They immediately got a kid's menu and crayons out for me. I'm 15. FML

Today, I was seated, once again, at the "too small" children's table. I'm twenty. FML

Not a wife guy
Today, I went to a restaurant with my mother, where the waiter complimented my "wife". I'm not 18, and she's over 40. FML

Close shave
Today, I had dinner at a local fast-food joint. There's an employee there that I usually talk to and flirt with, so I thought maybe it was time to ask for her number. After a small conversation and almost getting to the point, she told me, "I'm 17." I'm 23. FML
not saying it was whores, but...

Today, I accidentally belched at the dinner table. At age 22, I got sent to my room with no dessert by my parents. FML

Today, I met and asked a cute girl out on a date. We decided to meet at a fancy restaurant downtown. When I got there I saw her sitting with what turned out to be her parents. They made a huge scene, calling me a pedophile and a low-life. Apparently, the girl was 16 years-old. I'm 25. FML

Fine mess
Today, I begged my parents not to take me to a restaurant for my birthday, but sure enough, they took me to one, along with my siblings, aunts, uncles, you name it. Ordering with them is a nightmare, so after a whole half-hour the waiter still hadn’t gotten everyone’s complicated orders written down. FML

Today, it was my 18th birthday and I was told I couldn't get the night off work because a party of 34 had booked into the restaurant. It turned out my family had come in to 'celebrate' by making me wait on them. They were a nightmare, thought it was hilarious to be difficult, and didn't tip. FML

Today, my family took me to a steak house. I went for an eight minute bathroom break, coming back to an empty table. They ordered dessert, and left me the bill. I'm a vegetarian, and it's my birthday. FML

I'm 19, but I look 12. doesn't help that i'm "short n' cute", so i know all about that. Just smile! or make them feel bad about it, that's always funny. or leave a big mess. personally i'm more of a revenge getter

That seems a little far-fetched. I can understand a person looking unreasonably young, but 14 year olds usually don't want the kids menu anymore. You'd have to have looked 12, and unless you have a disorder to account for it, only a blind person or a moron could possibly think a 24 year old could possibly look young enough to get a kids menu. And even being as flexible as possible, the waitress could have asked.

This happens to my sister and I all the time. I'm 20 and she's 25. She got married in October, and when she was at David's Bridal the woman there was asking her if she was excited about the prom. When my sister proceeded to tell her that she was getting married the woman actually argued with her, telling her she was not.

Be thankful. When you're 40, you'll look 21. I'm 21 now, and my mom is 40, and she looks like my age, and I get pulled over by cops because I look too young to drive. anyway, kid menus are rarely smaller then their adult counterparts, and cost half as much.

Haha I'm about to graduate from university and when I tell relatives (that I rarely meet) that I'm about to graduate, they would be like "Wow, you are graduating from high school? Time sure goes by fast!". Yes, I intentionally said "graduating" instead of "graduating from uni" just to see what they'd guess. ;D You should feel good that you look young. ;D

Yeah, this has happened to me quite a few times. But, I'm 16 going on 17, so I am still younger than all of you seem to be. It's like...yeah, I'm short. But I really don't think I look like a 12 year old ._.

Last year I was asked if I was nontaxable at a clothing store while shopping with my mom. Nontaxable age cut-off is 14, and I was 20 at the time. I said yes to get money off. FML.
