You’re still just that one person at your core but sometimes it feels like completely different people (or at least very different versions of yourself) came and went at various points in the teens. That’s why I try not to judge people (not necessarily negatively judge but y’know) too much based on how I last remember them in their teens. Too much changes happen in adolescence to use the yardstick for ascertaining what you think is their personality based on things they might’ve said and/or did when they were literally 14/15. Even school bullies change.

Oh yes absolutely. I feel a bit sorry for teens as well who grew up with social media/video/pictures etc that recorded all that cringey/embarrassing stuff that happens as you go through those phases. All I had were diaries that I eventually burned
