What would you tell your 18 yr old self.
Jump to: Newest in thread
I’ve recently looked at a pic of myself as an 18 year old.
A gawky, goofy, spotty 18 yr old but you know what I look at that person who was bullied at school and think I should have had more confidence.
But in reality I wouldn’t tell myself to be more confident, but I would tell myself,
“You know what, you’re going to be pretty fine just the way you are.”
Oh, and actually I let myself know that actually my cock is really quite a fairly average one.  |

"you're bi, you're non binary, you will look Hella cute in a dress and you like sucking cock and bum sex. Go and enjoy yourself and let go of your internalised homophobia. You will be a more complete version of yourself when you do. Try to break less bones too, it's not ideal later on...." |

Pictures of 18 year old me are much the same as pictures of 36 year old me, just with a couple of crowd feet creeping in.
I'd tell myself that trying to fit into societal norms is never going to work out well for me, and to just embrace who I am rather than who other people want me to be  |

That you are worthy and not to settle for the first guy that comes along. You have your pick of men choose wisely
Be more confident.
Don’t be afraid of what others think about you. Their opinion is irrelevant. |

Hmmmm?
Look dumnbass. You know nothing. You might think you know what you want, but you dont. Dont listen to your mother, no one wants you to be yourself. That is just crazy talk. Look wat happens when you do that, your stood in the corner with no one to talk to. Yes they have tits and a vagina and those things are wonderful, but can it make a sammich? Yes i know you can make a sammich, but you can wank too! Make sure it can make a good sammich and you will be happy. Oh, and make sure you dont call it, "it" out loud or you will be back in that corner by yourself again. With no sammich. Now get out there and smash it big man!  |

Stand up for yourself more, don't let the bullies stop you doing what you enjoy. Exam and study pressure is not worth thinking of ending it. Explore more and find out what you enjoy and want and not just go by what others tell you what you want or should go. |

When I was 15 I wrote a letter to my 30 year old self. I think I might write a letter to my 60 year old self because it was so insightful (mostly).
I would tell 18 year old me that things get so much better. You already know your self better than you think you do. There is nothing wrong with you. You will be ok. In fact you will be so much better than you can even imagine right now. |

Oi dickhead (only way to get 18 year old me's attention)
In 4 years time, you'll be shacked up with a woman in her apartment in Los Christianos. Everything will be sweet, she owns a bar on the seafront, you will be living the dream.
One day you are going to wake up have a pang and miss your ex. decide to give her a call. Don't fucking do it, there's a reason that coin slipped through your fingers twice. Pay attention to fate you Muppet. |

"Don't pluck your eyebrows!!!!!

I was thinking about writing around having confidence, being enough etc but this should be top of the list along with "do you know how much microblading will cost?" |

"Nothing. I’m too afraid of the butterfly effect, and I like my current life. "
Sound advice.
I regret trying to play on with a bad football injury which, led inderectly to a change of career. Then I married a terrible person but my kids are just wonderful.
Those butterfly wings ripple in many ways, good and bad |

First just accept and respect yourself for what you are. Second, you can get pissed and make an arse of yourself at any age, but you have the opportunity to be whatever you want to be, you might fail, but if you don't try you definitely will fail. Third, you might live to a ripe old age, so might be an idea to look after your body, and mind. |

Keep on with cycling, as you gave up when you were getting good.
Enjoy the motorbikes, just don't crash them as much.
Stop worrying and hiding your crossdressing, you have the best body for it in your teens and twenties. Your legs will look anazing in heels, stockings and a mini skirt. |

Tell your dad to get his heart checked out.
There's a day in the future where you are going to go for a run DON'T it'll end very badly for you.
Don't eat that chicken on the holiday in Morocco.
Enjoy your hair while you can. |
