If you could go back 10 years and talk to yourself...

[user104658]

... What could you tell your younger self that they would NEVER have believed?

About yourself or about the world in general.


This question has come from me just looking out the window and thinking;

If someone (attractive to me) came to my house right now and offered me the option of either sex, OR them mowing and trimming the garden for me... I would be seriously leaning towards the latter.

21 year old TS would be having words with me :joker:.

But yeah... Share yours, I'm interested! Maybe you're dat now and skinny young you would be horrified. Maybe you were a total ****-up but now you're pursuing the career of your dreams. Maybe you lost a hand in an industrial accident. It's all good.


(We'll call it 5 years for some of the younger members since I think some of you were in nappies 10 years ago...)

hhhmmmm I'm not sure that i was that different 10 years ago :laugh: I'd need a think about it

It could be about something that's happened or that you've done. But the rules are... It's not that you can tell yourself in order to change anything, the way things are going is set, so it's not like "Oh avoid [blah]"... Just something that would make your younger self say "OMG no wayz!"

I was going to say, that I'd rather sit in front of the TV/fire with a glass of wine than go out..........but I was always pretty into my comforts so that probably wouldn't surprise me at all :laugh:

Niamh where are all of your deep dark secrets! I know you have them, this is nonsense :suspect:

I would have to go back further than 10 years, 10 years ago I was engaged with a 6 and 2 year old :laugh:

[joeysteele]

I would tell myself to still go on the path I choose to whatever that may be but one thing I have already learned is be more careful who you end up giving respect to and feel you can trust.
So I would warn myself against probable fair weather friends who are more likely false but don't show that at times until a fair/long way down the line.

A fair point, I forget how old people are... ... ... Actually forget how old I am because I was probably thinking more "18 year old me" but I wasn't even a teenager 10 years ago :umm2:.

OK, I'm going to get at these things somehow. If you could talk to yourself at 18...

Probably, you're going to have a baby at 21 :worry:

[user104658]

That's true. I was a carefree singleton living in halls at 20... And at 22 I was engaged with a baby on the way and crippling anxiety about a council tax bill :umm2:

[Withano]

It's actually possible for two white parents to have a black child, if there is genetic ancestry even as far back as four generations. You never know LT!

Damnit, I hid it for so long :fist:

[user104658]

I have a workmate who is a Leicester fan... I was like, "Has there ever before been a team that's won the premiership one year, and been relegated the next?" :joker:

[Cherie]

I don't think you change much from 30s to 40s so not sure I would give myself much of a talking to :hee:

[Livia]

I'd like to talk to my 14 year old self. I had such a bad time back then... I'd like to tell myself that the people making my life hell were really worthless trash, and their lives would reflect that.

[Mystic Mock]

I'd tell my 10 year old self about how I've now got a Niece and a Nephew.

And I'd probably tell my past self to be more independent and believe in yourself more and move out once you turn 16 so you can get away from your psychotic Mother, and cowardly Father that just encourages her psychotic behaviour, and enjoy your time with your posessions, your Cat, and other important things before it all goes pairshaped by the time you hit 20.

I was walking the dog on the golf course today and I met smallest boy LT and his gang - they were playing at running into peoples gardens and the like :umm2:

It was like meeting me at 10. It was weird. Children have a habit of doing this

I'd say that the next 5/6 years are going to be absolute hell on earth but fight it because it will all be worth it in the end. You'll lose your "life" as you know it so just live in the now and make the most of it, live for the moment and have fun! It will get hard but eventually it will get better.
