"Old-Fashioned"

One of the most difficult things to deal with being a 20 year old is being "old-fashioned". I'm not considered old-fashioned when it comes down to my taste in music or the way I dress, when it comes down to those things I'm considered a "normal" 20 year old. When it comes down to sex and dating men, everyone considers me "old-fashioned". Being told that I act like a "grandma" or that "I need to live my life" has become really annoying to hear all the time! When you don't live your life the way everyone around you is living theirs you're considered "different" or better yet "old-fashioned". I don't believe that I have to have casual sex to fit in; I also don't believe that I should be a "player" because I'm too young to be trying to settle down. Recently, I was told that I'm too beautiful to be giving one guy all my time, when I could be getting whatever I wanted from other guys as well; I was also told that I should not look at sex with multiple partners as something negative, I should enjoy my life. Hearing these things pissed me off to the point where I couldn't even respond to the bullshit advice that I was given. I enjoy being with one person, that's just me. I enjoy being in a relationship, I've always been that way. I have never been the type of person to mess with multiple people at once and I don't respect people that do. I'm tired of hearing people tell me that I'm too young to want to settle down. If I'm too young to settle down then I'm too young to be sleeping around!

...BTW I don't consider myself "old-fashioned", I just have morals and believe in living my life a certain way.
