Hey guys I'm new to the site and I wanted a little bit of feedback on a current situation.
To start out I'm 17 and quite frankly I am not looking for the "your too young to be on this site" answer. So I'd appreciate if that wasn't brought up.
First off I've had a problem with crippling anti socialism for the past few months.
The reason this worries me is that I used to be a VERY social person, and now whenever I try to talk to women it is like one of those situations they over exaggerate on t.v where your on stage and your stripped of your clothes in front of an audience.
So I guess my question regarding that subject is, have any of you ever had something happen that sort of knocked you into an anti social rut even when you wanted to be social and know you had the capacity to?
Another problem is maturity levels, I have always been a little bit more mature than other people my age.
I compensated by dating women who were two years older than me.
Now that I'm 17 the gap in age (even though it is the same as it's always been) seems a little bit larger to women than it used to because they apparently have some issue with me not being legal.
The problem with that now is I've gotten numbers off of women who are 19 and they showed more than just a little interest until I mentioned my age.
And I've been trying to date someone my age or younger, but it's feeling hopeless just due to maturity differences.
So is lowering my maturity level and acting a little bit more like a goof something I should do to help the situation?
Thank you for any and all feedback guys!
