Is it possible that being too mature for my age is causing me to have less friends?

Growing up I've been told by everyone I'm "mature for my age" by teachers, youth pastors, therapists and random adults I've had conversations with. I never really thought too deep into those comments. But I've gotten more of those lately so I can't help but think, could that be a reason why I don't have a lot of friends? Could I be making people my own age uncomfortable around me? But why would that make them uncomfortable? I'm not boring, maybe really studious and nerdy but I'm still 15 like the rest of y'all.😭 I talk crap about the teachers I don't like, I have crushes on guys, I laugh at immature jokes. I don't understand... the friends I do have I really appreciate but a lot turn out to be fake... found out a girl from school was fake; the way I found out hurted. Long story short/ main point, a girl at the table whisperered in her ear twice looking directly at me. The girl said, " I'm not talking about you, you can even ask your friend." My friend didn't even say anything. Another incident in class was I felt like the girls were talking about me and when I confronted my friend she got really defensive and refused details.


Sorry for grammar mistakes. I'm sleepy and just wanted to get this off my chest. I've been feeling down about this lately. I know I shouldn't change who I am but it sucks being treated a little differently. Shit, my friends call me the "mom" of the friend group. 😅 It's sweet coming from but knowing others see you as " really mature" only makes you wonder.
