I just try not to put myself in the spotlight and open up to people who don't know about my status, so they think am anti-social. Have you ever been heard anti-social or bipolar by people who don't know about your status?

I'm pretty sure you meant to post this in Other Topics instead but yeah this bugs me as well. I don't have anything to talk about either, I'm on my computer 24/7 working to save up money for college. Can't do anything special because I don't have a car, and no money to waste. and if you do try to socialize they always end up pressuring about driving, getting a license, and what not, and I'm not explaining. I can't even drive to the movies and I'm definitely not showing my passport in front of them, so I try to avoid it altogether. I really try to socialize sometimes but sometimes all it does is make things worse. What specially bugs me is when they start talking about the "good life" and what not and I just know I could have a much better life than they do if I only got a chance
At first they start talking about what they've been up to and then it just turns into question after question. Why don't you get a license, why aren't you going to college this year, why dont you just join the military, etc etc.
Sorry about rambling on and on but hey I just wanted to share and explain that socializing is very difficult for me because people put pressure on you and there's nothing you can do about it. Even if you do explain to someone you trust, they usually don't understand. They think you can just go back home or take a citizenship test
