As I get older, all the people I've remained friends with and kept in regular close contact with since we were all teenagers/early 20s together, don't look as old to me as other people our age. I still see parts of the teen/20s versions of them in their current faces. But when I meet someone new our age, or even 5 years younger, I don't see that part of them because I never knew it, and they look older to me. It's weird to think that how old that person looks, that's how old we all must look, really. (Unless by some weird coincidence, all my friends and I do just happen to look 10-15 years younger than 95% of other people our age. Which would be very comforting, but is so implausible that I can't bring myself to believe it, no matter what my brain tells me my eyes are seeing. Getting old is weird.)
