If I'm not standing on a stage,
Then why should I act "more my age"
?
People always meet me and we quickly become friends. We laugh and talk, exchange numbers. Then, they ask me how old I am... Is it bad for me to be mature or be able to have good conversations at a  young age?  Why should you act differently because you now know the number of years I've been alive? It's unfair how people can judge so quickly and it hurts when people reject me because I don't match whatever stereotype they have attached to my age group. It's almost as if I've insulted them... they no longer find me funny, witty, or smart. How sweet.
