Should I be called naive and ignorant?

Question

I don’t drink smoke or party, I don’t have any bad habits at all, I am a straight A student, never dated anyone in high school too. But my friends tell me that bc I never experience those above, I am an naive and ignorant. I just want to focus on school and work instead of those meaningless activities, why is that ignorant and naive? I work for than any of my friends in the real world as an assistant in a law firm, I do a great job, I experience real world this way, do you agree with my friends comments?

Answer

Naive and ignorant just means lacking knowledge and experience, so technically you are those things in regards to partying/alcohol, but that doesn’t mean you are naive or ignorant in general. 
Also I suspect when your “friends” say these things they aren’t focused on technical definitions and are more so meaning to insult you, which is uncalled for.

Answer

Your friends should look up the meanings of those words and party less! 😂
I mean I partied a lot but now 10 years later the cool prty people are jobless or stuck in a low pay sturggle job meanwhile the nerds have great jobs and money and enjoying life

Answer

That’s just what people who have made poor decisions say to feel better about themselves. It reflects more on them then you. Keep doing what you are doing 👍
I used to get that a lot too, it’s frustrating. There is a big difference between being naive and choosing self control. They call you that because they don’t want to accept that a person could possibly be faced by the same temptations and peer pressures as them and choose not to give in. If a person regrets their decisions your wisdom makes them self conscious, so they have to find a reason why you don’t do what they do.

Answer

You'll likely go farther in life a little faster and easier bc of your good choices.  Dont let anyone pressure you to do otherwise.

Answer

I don’t think “ignorant” or “naive” fits here. While the way you have gone with your life means that there are world experiences you haven’t had, you are living a life that suits you and your goals. 
It sounds to me like whomever said that is jealous (and probably not a true friend). You will have other experiences in time and it’s not up to someone else to determine when you need to have those experiences.

Answer

Both of those things require you to do something in order to be labeled as that... for example: my MIL once found a bag of marijuana under my husbands bed when he was in HS. She took it to work with her to find out if it really was weed or just some cooking spices. That is being naive. 
It sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders and a plan so I wouldn't worry about them.

Answer

I don’t party or smoke. I get drunk with my man. I get straight As. People don’t understand that some people put their education first. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I hate partying and going out unless it’s with my SO or my best friend.

Answer

As someone who also had those kinds of "friends", you don't need them in your life. Find friends who respect you for your choices even if they're different from their own.

Answer

Hey, even if that does make you ignorant to what it's like being drunk/high, does it really even matter? You obviously have zero interest in that area, and it's not something that you're ever really going to know, so why does it matter? I'm ignorant about how to take care of Chinchilla's, but I'm perfectly fine with that because I have zero interest in ever caring for one and it's not something I need to know in order to make it through life 
Get what I'm saying?

Answer

Your friends are just envious and jealous.... most people make soo many mistakes in their life and mature only after they’ve learned their lesson the hard way.... you on the other hand seem focused, smart  and matured and they just don’t get it....
Keep on keeping on.....
Best wishes ....the sky is definitely the limit
