I am about to turn 28, but I look very young for my age. I would say that most strangers in a setting with no context would assume that I’m somewhere between 16 and 21 years old. This is based on what other people have told me. How can I get women my own age to take me seriously when women typically don’t date younger men. Obviously, I’m not actually younger, but most of them assume I am.

Facial hair perhaps? Always makes guys look older.
Make a lot of money and dress like a businessman 😁 im not saying its the best approach but i can promise it will work
Grow a beard if you can. I look young for my age as well without it. It has helped a ton. It looks great too
Gym and swimming
Your looks are one thing but how do you act around them? Are you mature and confident? Do you come across as acting like a teenager?
have a few bitcion and 2 bars of gold, that should do it
facial hair, hair style, clothes. honestly it starts with appearance. people go based off what you look like since it’s the initial thing you see visually. start with clothes, then hair, and facial hair.
look like you’re willing to hand them money
how do you dress? outside of just being baby faced and fresh looking (which doesn’t need to be a problem) there’s a lot you can do to change people’s initial perception that you are in your late teens.
The way you dress is your best bet. Upgrade your style. Think of Barney from “How I Met Your Mother”.
Don’t take people seriously who don’t take you seriously.
As someone with a Babyface and inability to grow thick facial hair I can relate a little. I don’t look like a child but I don’t look 30 either. So much more than physical appearance goes into how people perceive you, it’s cliche but confidence is key. Also what do you mean by “take you serious”? If your looking for a serious stable relationship you need to be serious and stable in other aspects of your own life.
Since you cant grow facial hair, you’ll need to re-examine what you wear and the way you carry yourself. You dont have to dress like someone you’re not, but at least make sure your clothes fit, the colors match, and they’re appropriate for the places you’re going to. Carrying yourself with confidence, walking with purpose, and generally looking like you know what you’re doing will do wonders for how people perceive you
Dress up a little maybe. Button down shirts, etc.
why bother? date the 20 year olds.
I would just run with it. Tell them you’re 18 and into cougars. 🤷🏻♂️😛.
Sorry, don’t listen to my advice, lol. I’m gay, 51, never serious, and I feel like guys 10 years younger than me are still too old 🤣
