I don’t get offended either although I had some questions about being perceived as 12 as I usually get mistaken as being between 16-19, but I guess my friend just saw it as an insult. When I was in retail my age got questioned the most because I was working with teens and they were surprised to learn I’m in college.

That’s true especially telling a grown adult you think they’re a child or significantly younger than they actually are can be insulting in some contexts especially if implying something about maturity. I remember when I worked in retail a customer said I look 12 when I was 20 at the time and a friend of mine said that’s insulting.

I read this and I realized this could easily happen to me as I’m just a year younger than you and I don’t look like it either. I know someone else my age who sometimes gets happy meals because they’re cheaper. Plus it’s a way to heal your inner child which is totally valid.

The guy you hooked up with is in the wrong here, not you. You’d only be in th wrong if you decided to continue things after finding out, and based on this post that’s something you wouldn’t do knowingly as you don’t condone cheating. Hopefully his girlfriend realizes he’s cheating and leaves him as no one deserves this.
