I'd strike up convo and ask teenager if you guys can be BFFs. Then tell her that it would be inappropriate since you're 29. Guess you look young for your age though, good for you!
I've had something similar happen to me a few times. People asking me what high school I go to, someone (who ended up being a good friend) saw my engagement ring and was all "What are you... 16 years old?!? Why are you engaged?!?!"
Just take it for the compliment it is and let them keep judging. They'll judge the WRONG person one day and get their asses kicked.
I vote you loudly whisper "JUST SO YOU KNOW YOUR WHISPERING IS NOT AS QUIET AS YOU THINK IT IS. AND I'M 29 SO NOT A TEEN MOM BUT THANKS FOR YOUR CONCERN."
Please tell me said something, if for no other reason than YOU CAN HEAR THEM.
"Sorry, couldn't help but overhear your stage-whispered conversation, I'd just like you to know that you don't have to worry about me, I'm nearly 30 and happily married. Thank you so much for your concern though!"
Heh, ditto pretty much everyone else. But at least you look young? H is older than I am, we're both 30, and I've had several people either refer to him as my son or ask if he was my son. Pretty sure I've gotten horrified looks now that I'm giantly pregnant and we go out in public holding hands, too.
