Also, I am expected to be less mature or maybe oversensitive, but i couldn't care less and Im the top of my class (of 120). Because people assume these about me, they act all cautious or just dont talk to me at all, which then makes me seem intraverted. Its strange.

pfft. Like that's going to happen. I'm sick of the names too, like so what if I'm a bum living off of society?
But yeah, expectations, love em or hate em, you have to live with em.

The world, for example, expects women my age to be all about the grandchildren. We've raised our children. They're out of the house and on their own and, for the first time since we were children, we're free - only now, because we're adults, the freedom has a different, deeper meaning - we have something to which to compare it. Anyway, the world thinks that, because we've had children, we must love children and want to have them around. We're supposed to look sad and be regretful because our children don't have children and have expressed no desire to have children when, on the contrary, we're not unhappy about it at all. Unrelated people think we're eager to babysit their kids because we're retired and "love kids and have nothing better to do."
So, to keep this from becoming any bloggier, what expectations do people have of you and why do they have them? Do you meet those expectations or do you buck the trend? Do you resent them or do you accept them gladly?
