Back when you were really young...

Well, they thought I was cute when I was really young, apparently, I was a really cute baby. They don't really think I am cute now, just average.

The only person who thinks I am worthless is a person at my school who hates me (I'm not a fan of her either), and the only one who thinks I am inferior, is um, myself and the person from school who hates me, I suppose.

I was a handful when I was a kid. I got into everything, explored, sassed back and was willful. I got my mouth washed out a lot and adults were generally exasperated with me. I don't think it helped that I was largely self-sufficient (or self-contained) and also wasn't very affectionate. I didn't do very well with other kids either.
I've come to the conclusion that whatever outward cuteness I had was overruled by my abrasive personality.

As an adult, people treat me as inferior because they tend to think I'm stupid and/or naive. I sometimes even nurture that opinion because I've found that people are more comfortable with me that way. The more myself I am, the more often people look at me like I'm an alien or like I'm somehow threatening.
I've also noticed that I make some people uncomfortable/nervous no matter what I do. Which is weird and I don't understand it.

Oh, yes.

People thought I acted way too old to be so young. Now they just think I'm arrogant and disrespectful.

No. Some of my family took some pride in me back then, but only some of my family thought me cute. Even less so as i got older.

I wouldn't know, since I have no contact with non-related people who knew me when I grew up. I assume they would, seeing as I don't fulfill the expectations of human adult. My father sees me that way, I don't think my mother does.
