Highschooler talking to college kids...? - David - 11-09-2012 01:43 PM

Ok I'm going to make this short and quick. I'm a 10th grader in high school, and I talk to a few college kids, mainly on facebook( We talk in groups and have common interests so I add them on my fb, there's nothing personal on there really so I add and make friends with a lot of people), and also at concerts and events I go to. There is this one particular person who I talk to on fb that lives locally and I haven't met in person yet, but has assumed that i'm in college. And I feel like it would be weird if I told that person I'm in high school......would it really matter if I was in high school? When I was a freshman last year I mostly hung out with juniors and seniors(yes I do have friends my age in my grade also) and I was one of the only freshman they liked. So i'm obviously mature for my age. So my question is, would it matter at all if i'm in high school? Do you think they would care? Thanks.

Also I'm a guy and this particular person in college is roughly 7 to 8 years older than me.
**If you were to see me in person you would easily think I was at least 19 or 20. I've gotten that a LOT.

Well, depends how old you are. If you're 7 to 8 years younger, I would feel like I was babysitting some 16 year old. I'm only in my first year of college and I think it would be weird to hang out with a 10th grader. I guess it depends on you as a person though. So I would say go for it and tell them when you hang out with them or something. If they feel uncomfortable... it happens. You only got 2 years left and then you're off to college and not gonna lie, it's pretty awesome.
