Ive always looked younger .
I get treated like a college kid. I could pass for one but I have more in common and similar intrests with people ten or twenty years older than me.

WEhat should i do with it? try to pick up college chicks? Theyre too busy on thier cell phones.

It CERTAINLY doesnt help with men or jobs becasue I'm not taken seriously.

I feel a pressure to USE it for something but I dont know what.

I'm 31 and many people I'm work with treat me like I'm alot younger. My boss calls me kiddo. Guess it's that naive air about me. I don't know.

No, I always had to hang around with adults because all the noise children make hurt me terribly--I still associate babies with pain. I matured very quickly and never had a real childhood.

So long as they realize I'm just as intelligent as they are, I don't really mind.

That's my exact take on this.
