Hi. I have a problem with my age. I pretty much know where it comes from - my parents. They always criticized me in relation to it. But i want to know how to solve it. The problem is that i always think about my age when i do some bigger things in my life or interact with people. Its like I stereotype others but mostly myself all the time. When theres a concert of a band I like i think about the age of audience that will be there and wil it fit me or not. The same with partys clubs etc. When I get a new contact even if i dont know his or hers age at the beginning and i like the person I can even freak out later when I find it out that he or she turns out to be much younger (older people than I am I dont find so disgraceful to myself). Last time I remember was with a 17 years old girl who I thought was 19 or 20. When I was 16 I wanted to try out alternative clothing but I thought that I am to old for that allready so I did nothing. Now that I am 21 I still want to try it out but now I think that I should have tried it out when I was 16 and now I am to old. Actually there are many things that I want to do which relate to the youth but I consider myself too old for them. I have started to think about when I should become a parent also. And so on there are numerous examples. I hope you get the idea.
