Aria has always been depicted as the more mature of the girls (even in the books). This is due to her year abroad in Europe, the very liberal way she was raised (remember Ella saying "we raised a girl that would think for herself and we can't be surprised that that's what she is"), among other things. Unlike her peers, the relationship she is engaged in with Ezra is a serious "adult" relationship.

It is normal that her reactions be different, although her youth sometimes still transpires.
