12 years older. If they'd let me put the real answers to some of the questions, instead of pigeonholing me, I suspect I'd've been older still.

Not sure of the significance of being mentally 22 years younger the my chronological age. Maybe I'm in my second childhood.

Mentally 39, feels right for me. 20 years younger than my physical age!

It's funny how most people are happy to come out younger than their physical age. Clearly we perceive ourselves as young at heart rather than being immature, and see coming out as older mentally as being 'an old fogey' rather than a badge of maturity!

I don't usually do quizzes, but this one pulled me in. My mind is apparently a decade younger than my mind. I would've guessed a lot younger. There goes my pledge to never to grow up.

Nearly twenty years younger than my actual age. Schooldays teaching the little fellows keeps me young. Teaching teenagers would give me heart attacks! Age = 43.

Just two years younger than my real age. Which is fair enough.

Mine was 40. Far below my natural age.
I couldn't really answer the 'house party' question, since I would never have one; which was not a choice.
Actually, I believe mentally I am stuck in my 20's.
