Last week I was waiting to pay some bills when this old lady looked at me surprised and asked me, loudly "Oh wow, how old are you? 17? You are so tall! How tall are you?" I obvously was annoyed by this, but I replied to her inquiries out of courtesy. She sort of kept talking but I turned away to stop the conversation.
I talked about this with my shrink. He told me the old lady was quick to sense that I was immature. Which is kind of what I expected. I know my face makes me look younger but not that much... I'm 25 years old!
So after talking some more with my shrink I realized this was a very good reason to get a job. Which is what I'm currently doing.
I never got a job. I tried a few times, got on 3 interviews, they ended with no results. I always got extremely nervous, anxious like fresia, sweated like a pig, sabotaged myself by replying wrong to things I knew... It was a nightmare.
But now fortunately I turned things around, I'm no longer nervous. I went to an interview and acted like a normal human being lol... Not a bit nervous. It went ok, they said they were gonna call for a second interview.
Now I can see the benefits of working, and I also realize what kind of jobs I'd like to do (which I hadn't figure out in the past). So now I feel I got a real chance of getting one. The harder part will be showing enthusiasm when I need to, I think I can pull it off... But it's hard for me because it takes me time to get excited about something.
So I'm hoping this will make me more mature, and people will treat me like my own age. Plus girls always whine about how they'd like someone mature, so it might help me with that as well
