This is a very strange question, I'm sure. I'm 14 years old, and most people I meet for the first time outside of my family and friends think that I'm at least 17 years old, because of my appearance and general demeanor. I met a guy who I thought was 17, and he thought that I was that age as well... but he turned out to be 19 years old. Anyway, nothing really happened but I still think of him after a year, and I haven't spoken to him in at least half a year. I'm upset because this happens a lot; people think I'm much older than I actually am. I get emotionally attached to some of these people, and vice versa, but consequently nothing ever works between us. I'm not sure what I should do in these circumstances, because I've been through lots of emotional trauma because of it.

I don't think there's much you can do the same thing
has happened to me expect i'm opposite i get told i
look younger then i really am someone thought i was 16 when in reality i'm 19 iv'e been asked if i'm in school even though i graduated 3 years ago most who ask me are adults so i don't get emotionally attached like you it's just one of those things that happen which you can't control try to not get
your hopes up even though it's tough(:
