10 years older

Posted by anonymo on 8/19/2008 2:37:00 AM
I wish i was ten years older. I don't want to sound conceited. No, i'm not better than everyone my age . I just dont fit in with them.

I used to think there might have been something wrong with me. I realized that the people i get along with best and have the most sincere conversations with are in there mid-twenties.

Sometimes i feel miserable at school. I think; why am i talking to the teachers aid's all the time? 10 years doesn't make the difference of an entire language, but somethings changed. And when my friends and i sit around, just hanging out, I feel that im not as engaged or having as much fin as they all are.

This is what someone told me recently; "They're all just figuring out who they are. Maybe you already know who you are". well, it was awkward hearing that, especially that it came from my doctor.

So now i don't know what to do. I truly am miserable, but not in an angsty way. Even a proffessional doctor gave me advice and i still dont know what to do. Any advice?

i was just like all of you when i was a teenager. i've always been one of those people that thinks outside of the box. more like the box outside of the box that's outside of the box. people have called me strange. but i always enjoyed it. i just knew there was no way they could possibly understand. it was just above their level of intelligence. so i felt more comfortable around people in their 20s and 30s. which was easy for me, my brother is 11 years older than i am. i'm 25 now. looking at the number now, it seems so young. inside i still feel older. i've fit a lot of livin in my 25 years. i wish i could go back and slow down the hands of time. enjoy this time in your life. you may not understand now, but you will look back someday and wish you would've just enjoyed it and not rushed it. so maybe people don't understand you. one of my favorite quotes is: if you can't convice them, confuse them. always be one step ahead of em. through out your life, you will encounter many more people that don't understand you. and it has nothing to do with age. you'd be amazed at the amount of ignorant people in this world. jeez, they're running our country! :) there's nothing with having a higher level of thinking. embrace it! ya know, if you're gonna do something, do it good. educate yourself. you can never learn too much.

i'm curious about how old you are.
Cos i'm 16 and i feel like i'm alot more developed, both physically and emotionally, but i'm glad that i'm 16. everyone knows me as 'that kid with the huge tits', and i spend most of my time with people in their 20's. They do patronize me a little which is never fair, because biological age really doesn't have much to do with where you are in your life. Just enjoy spending time with people that make you feel comfortable and it'll all round out somewhere.
