I'm female in my late twenties and haven't been that social nor been to places or done things like others seem to have. I have good knowledge on specific things like healthcare but my knowledge of the world is bad (in quizzes I'm like on par with 13 year olds). The thing is I don't know what I don't know and so only realise that I don't know something until people are like 'omg did you not know that'. I'm dating an older man and he is always pointing it out to the point where it's annoying. He said 'for a person of 30 ( I'm not even 30 yet but never mind)I'm surprised you have very low knowledge compared to most people'. If he mentions a TV programme, event in history etc I just nod as though I know I don't ask as I don't want to show myself up incase it's something I should know. There's things on the topic of health that he doesn't know (like he didn't know cold sores could cause genital herpes) that I thought he would for his age but I don't say anything that' s why I get annoyed when people put me down for it. It makes me feel like doing what they do and saying 'wow did you not know that' but I don't want to be vindictive like this lol.
Im im also often told that I seem young for my age and that some things I say are like what a 14 year old would come out with. I'm very quiet so don't talk much anyway probably a good thing lol but yea it just makes me lose more confidence. Is this something I can improve on or hide better?
Put the internet to work for you.
