Being a Teenager is tough. You are treated like a child but you're expected to act like an adult

I’m a teen, I hate it when people put me in a box because of my age. I deliberately try to act as least like a “teen” and possible. And the media doesn’t help in my endeavour, I’m glad there’s at least some science that gives some reason to why people label and box teens up other than that they are entitled old people with expectations. I am so sick of it.
The other day a random guy asked me “when’s the party?” I just looked at him because I was so confused and he replied with “a girl your age needs heels and a boyfriend”

Secluding yourself gives thoughts of unworthiness... That... Explains my entire summer.
