Question Posted Monday September 27 2004, 3:53 pm

ok well im 13 female and in the 8th grade. the preoblem is, i dont look it or act it when im not in school or with my friends. at school, i wear girly clothes and cute shirts and skirts and stuff from like aero, abercrombie, or ltd 2.
but when im at home i stray away from that stuff and wear tee shirts and ugly stuff. part of this is becasue i dont want to seem like im growing up to my younger neighbors who i play outside with and my dad i think has an especailly hard time with this (growing up). also at home i act different like im younger.... i am afraid to grow up and have a bf,wear makeup, etc becuase i dont want to seem older to my family and neighbors. i do really like two boys in my school, but i cant tell anyone at school or to my fam becuase i think they would be surprised. i dont know how to break it to my fam that i am really 13!!!!!
PS. it doesnt help that i am really small 4 my size!!
confused in lebanon, pennsylvania

well at school it seems your not acting yourself. you're portraying an image you think is most appropriate to maintain. at home, you feel more comfortable and can be yourself it seems. some people dont want to grow up- you might just be delaying your growing up because you're scared? dont be afraid of growing up- it's one of the best things in life. dont be afraid to have a boyfriend, wear makeup, or anything- no body says you have to do it right now, but later on you will have fun doing it all! life is made to have hearts broken, emotions experienced. having a crush on two boys is sooo normal, dont be afraid to tell anyone. your family wont be surprised you're 13 ;) ! they should already be ready for it! your height can make you feel little, but i know so many girls who are small, but they still act like they're 13- and im sure you will to! you cant stay young forever- get out there and have fun for what teens are supposed to do! learn from your mistakes, fall in love, break hearts, have you heart broken, have fun and grow into a person you can look back at and say 'i really did have the best time growing into myself' =] -ask_anything
