Question Posted Wednesday February 20 2008, 4:37 pm
So I'm a smart, all honors, straight A, talks intelligently kind of girl, but not at all in a way that turns people off. So basically I'm friends with SO many different kinds of people because i get along with everyone.
My boyfriend...hes a little anti social, a teeny bit socially awkward, and not as mature and smart as me.
But I really like him because even if he's not like me...we can relate on lots of levels and I love being with him and hanging around with him. Its just...at school...he doesnt fit in with my friends and its STRANGE. Plus...i HATE his friends. Even if theyre older than me, theyre so immature! What should i do about this situation? If it helps im 15 and hes 16.

Not saying give up your other friends, but neither of you feel comfortable around each others friends so maybe you can create a new group of friends that you both enjoy to be around. Or just enjoy being with him and make a compromise of hanging out with both groups evenly. Just because guys seem to be immature doesn't mean you can't be friends. Those guys are probably the most fun to hang around. Sometimes you need to lighten up and just laugh at how stupid they are, that does not mean you have to dumb yourself down or anything but sometime it is fun just to relax and not always be mature.

Not every friend you yours is going to be the best of friends with everyone. Plus, a little immaturity never hurt anyone. Consider hanging out with your boyfriend and his friends, maybe at his house, and just getting to know each other.
