Yeah we're all so cute until we hit 18, then it's "enjoy your alleyway, kid, we're done with you."
I dunno, I'm always afraid of coming off the wrong way, in the blue collar town I grew up in, I was accused of lots of things that were... a surprise to me when I found out about them. I dunno, I've never been in legal trouble because I avoid situations where I could be taken the wrong way. It's so frustrating to be misunderstood, I just stopped trying... I'm not recommending you do that, of course, because it's also terribly lonely.
They think we're so adorable as kids, don't they? But hit 18 and you're a creep... you can see it in that slideshow of their faces.
I don't know what to tell you though, just... well, realize that regular people just aren't terribly friendly, and you have to avoid doing what they consider being "clingy" even if it makes you feel like you're working without a net. Right, easier said than done, I know...
