It is believed that asking a woman how old she is is an indicator of bad taste. This does not apply to men, therefore, some of the fair sex, starting to get acquainted with gentlemen, are interested in their age. And sometimes they find themselves in an ambiguous situation: a man either evades an answer, or, it seems, is telling a lie. Involuntarily, the girl thinks: how to find out how old he is, not to look secretly into his passport.
Instructions
Step 1
You can try to determine its approximate age by a combination of external signs, for example, the general outline of the figure and face, the condition of the skin, the thickness of the hairline on the head, the presence or absence of gray hair, wrinkles, etc. As a rule, people of middle age or close to old age, even if they are athletic, fit, are deprived of youthful thinness, angularity. Their body seems to blur a little. But, of course, there are exceptions, as in cases with gray hair, wrinkles, baldness. For example, the notorious Ulyanov-Lenin went bald when he was a little over 20 years old.
Step 2
Try, as if by chance, to gradually transfer the conversation to his childhood or adolescence. And at the same time ask the question: "When did you graduate from school?" Almost certainly, a man will automatically name the correct date. Perform simple calculations in your mind and conclude: he lied to you about his age or not. For example, if a man claimed that he was thirty, and it turned out that he finished school before the collapse of the USSR, then he is at least ten years older. Draw conclusions.
Step 3
Pay attention to his behavior, manner of speaking, general tone. In some cases, excessive assertiveness, haste, categorical judgments are characteristic of very young people who have not yet gained life experience. On the contrary, slowness, prudence, a desire for compromise are a sign of a mature, respectable person.
Step 4
Oddly enough, the smell of his perfume can tell a lot about a man's age. The fact is that over the years, the sensitivity of the olfactory receptors dulls a little. And a man often begins to use cologne with a stronger, pungent, heavy scent. Young people, who have a sharper sense of smell, rarely use perfumes with such aromas.
