Feel like a rookie

Having lunch at my favorite diner, where I have been a regular for some 20 years. See a couple of old-timer couples that I recognize on a nodding basis. As one couple gets up to leave, she stops to say to the other woman "You look familiar". The other woman responds "I've been coming here regularly for 30 years." Both saw right through me, as if I was wallpaper. New kid on the block.
I wouldn't give it a lot of power, we tend to personalize what others project. There are lot's of folks who would cherish a little quality time spent with you. Focus on them.

@Grateful4you Doesn't bother me in the least. I just thought it was a laugh.
@dancingtongue Good to hear!

It was when they turned to you and said, "and who might you be Johnny come lately?" That it really stings.
