I get scared when people tell me I "still look the same".

Really?
You mean to say I still look like the biggest dork around with green braces and a balding head and thick framed glasses (mind you, they weren't so 'in' at the time. If it had been I would have been the coolest kid in town)?
I was awkward and didn't know what to do with my arms for the most part.
And I had a unibrow for heaven's sake (which I shaved off later with my father's razor BTW) and I was so insecure about how I looked in my school uniform, I wore safety pins, very neatly concealed within the shirt to make it look like I was cool enough to not tuck-in my shirt but not trouble-worthy anyway.

And you still think I look the same?

Insult.
Thu.

OMG!! Tell me about it!

It COULLLDDDD be a compliment when you're 60 and someone who knew you in your 20s meets you after ages and says that. But otherwise, plain awkward.
