He wants me to meet his friends, yet all of them seem to look at age, rather than at me. I am a shy person as it is, and stereotypical people I cannot stand. How do I make this meet and greet smooth? (I am feeling a bit self conscious)

hi
just be yourself when you meet them. your boyfriend loves the person you are so don't try to change. if his friends are the sort of people like you say who judge people by age, they are probably expecting to be introduced to a mouthy teenager so it'll be a a nice surprise for them when they meet you and they see your not like that! if you feel like you don't want to talk much or you haven't got anything much to say, let them do the talking but make sure you seem interested in them, not stand-offish. and if your thinking of drinking too much so you can loosen up and appear more confident - don't. drunk is not a good first impression!
good luck with it
