As'Salaam Alaaykum

Would you be offended if a news reporter asked you for your age?

No, I would not be offended.

 

[joyous fairy]

I always tried to avoid to tell about my age.Because almost everyone who come to know about my age got shocked.
because I look very young than what is my age is.Heights some people think that I am in School .sometimes it's Irritating.And they think that my younger sister is elder than me.Even they had heard that i am elder than her than also they are asking She is elder than you?

It gets very annoying sometimes. Me and my sisters all look young and people always assume we're still in school/college, even though we are in our twenties!

['Abd Al-Maajid]

[Who Am I?]

the old want to be young
the young want to be old

This reminds me of something my father once told me, that the problem with youth is that it is wasted on the young. Of course, when I myself was a young lad, I looked at him like "What are you talking about, old man?" ^o)

I will be 36 in a few weeks, and now I understand what he was talking about. I wasted my youth on idle pursuits and dreams of fancy, and now there are things that I want to accomplish that I just don't have the time or energy for anymore that I had a decade ago.

I think I'll be 50 by the time everyone forgets about this topic.

 

[UmmuShaheed]

I wouldnt be offended, I guess it depends on how old the person being asked the question is :/

 

[peace_maker]

I wouldn't be offended. But I wouldn't tell my age either. Against house rules. :hmm:

 

[Sothis Girl]

I would ask him back how old he thinks I am ;D

 

[real islam]
