I have a serious babyface. What can I do?

Seemeinthestreets · 2014-11-06T14:07:06+00:00

Not give a fuck. Build confidence in your own skin. Not give a fuck. Lift. Not give a fuck. Accomplish goals. Oh and, not give a fuck.

red_gerb · 2014-11-06T14:57:14+00:00

Count your blessings, you won't believe this but you'll be 40 fairly quick, assuming that you are busy building a Life. Trust me.
That said, you'll look like 32, and be pulling down 21 year olds with confidence. In the mean time, think about what you wear. Are you dressing like a 'college boy'? or a professional/man. (no offense, boys)

Frozen_Tundra · 2014-11-06T15:27:47+00:00

in college I got ripped but hardly anyone noticed

What you mean is you got cut but made no gains in weight.

Lift, eat, gain

[deleted] · 2014-11-06T15:25:51+00:00

I basically look a decade younger

Why are you focusing on the negatives here? When you're in your late 30s (peak) you'll look like you're 30.

Jessie_James · 2014-11-06T15:42:41+00:00

It's all in your head. Lots of guys have this problem. I am in my 40's and people think I am late 20's or early 30's. It's a good problem to have when younger women are into you.

yeah start lifting to put on muscle not fat but muscle anyone can be skinny ripped

anti_raysis · 2014-11-06T18:16:24+00:00

On man, I'm 30 and have a babyface too. Just do a clean bulk. If nobody notices, you're doing it wrong. I went from getting shot down/ignored by pretty much any female that I approached, to getting stared at pretty much anytime I'm in public. I find that having a babyface, muscles, and solid income (to pay for style, car, and lifestyle) makes it way easier to pull chicks in the 18-19 range as they don't really perceive you as being older than them.

vicious_armbar · 2014-11-06T18:42:07+00:00

What do you do? Embrace that shit you lucky bastard! Go on to your local college campus and start slaying 18-24 year old hotties! Many, many men would kill to be in your position! Count your blessings my friend!

Hideydid · 2014-11-06T20:28:09+00:00

If you look like a college sophomore, that's great because college sophomores won't care. If you are 29, do you want only 29 year old girls to be attracted to you? Why would you go after a 29 year old woman over 19 year old girls?

Just accept the fact there is nothing to be done apart from the usual advice and take advantage of your youthful look and stop thinking about it like a 29 year old woman would, and see yourself through the eyes of the younger woman.

zenplus · 2014-11-06T14:38:09+00:00

What do you mean you were "ripped"?

I honestly think the solution to this problem is getting sub10% bodyfat. There's no way you are gonna have a pudgy face at these levels. It would also help if you got massive.

Stop making excuses. "I'm a hardgainer" is such bullshit. You're a hardgainer? Eat a fucking tub of peanut butter, a gallon of milk and a loaf of bread everyday and tell me if you're still a hardgainer.

You also probably don't look as young as you think you do.

Best of luck.

I'm approaching 35 and just a few days ago were told I looked 27 (and they were probably trying to be nice). I totally use it to my advantage now, but high school years were tough. At your age, 29, I probably looked 22 at most 25. I also worked manual labor in the summers, and got really fucking jacked and tan that definitely brought me female attention. At that age I had limited facial hair (mustache and neckbeard) so I shaved daily because it looked silly, but god I prayed for a full beard!
Around 31 years old I said screw it, and bulked up hard. Only heavy compound lifts and drank whole milk. I put on a good deal of fat and then switched to lean gains diet and watched the fat burn off and my face got a lot of definition that people started noticing. I barely grow any more facial hair (and doubt that I ever will get that full beard) so i just keep it at short stubble. I'd suggest doing something similar, you want to start building up that old man strength, don't worry about 6 pack abs. Also, the good news is, we're able to run with a younger crowd. I'm a much happier man now than in my 20's, but it's not just about the looks, it's my attitude that changed. People (mostly females) would always tell me "you'll appreciate that when you get older", but I knew not to listen to them for advice. The early years were tough but they got much better I'd say around 30/31. Hope that helps.

Take nicholas cage face and put it on yours. Then go to maximum security prison and start a fight, break out, and kill the guy who stole your family.

Other than that you're fucked. Or just learn to live with what you have

[deleted] · 2014-11-06T17:59:24+00:00

Ditto me too

...work out, be fit.

I'm in my late 40s and look much younger than guys my age. My uncle is pushing 70 and looks about 50.

Tell chicks you're from the past and you're 250 years old. You age slowly. Everyone wants that.

johker · 2014-11-06T20:38:56+00:00

Shut up with that "hardgainer/thin frame" bullcrap. If you're full, go eat more and stop complaining.

I can tell that you're the type that likes to complain and make up bullshit excuses for yourself. I am going to tell you this right now for your own benefit and that is: STOP COMPLAINING. Stop fucking caring so much about what others think of you; it's effeminate and weak. Stop making bullshit excuses; women don't want to hear it and men despise it.

Man up, nigga. Drink some raw eggs, eat steak, and grow a pair. You're 29 for godsakes

dazerzooz · 2014-11-06T20:40:05+00:00

Get jacked and dress like an adult are the two best pieces of advice.

Thin frame/hardgainer is generally nonsense, all that means is that you'll have to eat A TON of carbs and protein as part of your lifting routine. And whatever you think a ton is, multiply that by 3, because diet is as, and maybe more important than the lifting and you wont get big unless you eat like crazy.

DMVSavant · 2014-11-06T23:15:14+00:00

The "you have to date near your own age" is entirely for the benefit of women.

You look like a college sophomore. ..date college freshmen!

Just take your Dorian Gray face to all the college age events and raves you can get to-

that's what I'm doing :-)

rlh1271 · 2014-11-07T00:21:57+00:00

Wait a few years? I think it was okcupid dating trends that released data suggesting that up until a man hits 40+ women find men who look the closest to their age the most attractive. By that logic you should be banging 20-year olds well into your 30's and 40's.

DafyddBreen · 2014-11-07T04:33:20+00:00

Face has muscles too just exercise them. Look it up.

[deleted] · 2014-11-07T06:45:37+00:00

eat. swim and eat. eat and eat.

you dont get fat by accident.

make food available all the fucking time. you should have a meal within arms reach of you the entire day.

anonlymouse · 2014-11-07T07:25:41+00:00

I can't grow facial hair either.

/r/malehairadvice figure out what hair style goes well with your facial structure. It won't necessarily make you look more masculine, but it will improve your looks.

Next step would be to get jacked, but I have a "thin frame"/hardgainer... in college I got ripped but hardly anyone noticed...I'd have to wear really tight polo shirts that showed my nipples haha...

Do it anyway. Some girls really like skinny guys, they also like 'toned' guys with obvious muscle definition. You'll be able to attract a certain type of woman that others won't be able to.

Also, you shouldn't have trouble getting a fitted dress shirt that works as well as a polo that makes you look better.

Also, not that this is something that you want to take lightly, but you're old enough that steroids are viable and you're not likely to fuck yourself up if you do it right.

drallcom3 · 2014-11-07T12:31:23+00:00

I'm in my thirties but I can easily pull off 24 if I shave (and I always do since my facial hair is not that great). I get guessed as the youngest in my group when in fact I'm the oldest. You know what? I like it and I take comments about it as jealous compliments.

Something different: There's no such thing as a hardgainer. You're simply not eating enough. You might think that you're eating a lot, but it's not true. I'm like that too and I have to force myself to eat. Hint: Get a blender and throw in stuff like milk, olive oil, whey and peanut butter. Now you can drink lots of calories and that works better as a "hardgainer".

TeasingPenguin · 2014-11-07T15:14:29+00:00

Take testosterone, had just a little mustache, started T, full beard in 2 months

tymet · 2014-11-06T18:39:57+00:00

Lift and grow facial hair. Learn to style your facial hair to make your jawline appear more masculine (there are youtube tutorials on this).

If you have crooked teeth, getting braces and straightening them out might make your jaw seem wider

Get a diamond earring and a fade. Wear tight polos with the collar popped with khakis and a flat brim hat. Go to college campus. Win. To look older wear more mature clothing, expensive shoes/jacket/watch and exude confidence. Also win
