Nice To Meet You, Me.
Ok, so I was thinking about this at work and I figured I'd post it here to see what you all think.
If you found you go go back in time (hypothetical ) and you met yourself at the ages of 21 (if you're old enough), 18, 13 and 10 what do you think you might say to yourself? What would you do?
If I were to meet my 18 year old persona I think I would kick the living daylights out of my ignorant, arrogant self, first... then try my damndest to explain where I was going wrong and what I could do about it.
As for my 13 year old self, I'd probably ignore me, I wouldn't want to talk to me at that age, I remember what I was like
Myself at 10? I think I'd just cuddle myself for hours... and cry

Let's see I'm 29 and if I were to go back in time to my 21st birthday I would just observe myself. I would neither talk nor try to get the attention of my earlier self. I would just look at myself to get the 3rd person perspective. And to see how others saw me.

I was only 18 a year ago.....so there's not much I'd like to tell myself at that age but to stop worrying about things and just let go and trust my feelings.
I'd like to go back and tell my 13 year old self to be more confident and to not worry so much about other people think....that was right around when I became really shy.
Well..being seventeen..I'd probably go back to 13 and tell myself to relax more..and to be more confident and less sensitive so I can avoid that whole bullying thing..also to let go of my old friends and find some new ones..
Yes..I clung to my friends from primary school and was very unhappy because of it...but I guess learning these things is all part of growing up..it all becomes experiences that you learn from..from that I've learnt that life and friendships move on..you have to let people, places and times go..

Definitely... but that's why it's a good thing we can't actually go back in time, I suppose... we learn as we go along. We take our mistakes and teach ourselves not to do it again! Could you imagine if you suddenly popped up and told yourself not to do something? As freaked out as you'd no doubt be, would you actually listen to yourself any more than you would a peer, or a parent?

I can imagine myself trying not to speak to, uh... myself. But I doubt I'd be able to restrain myself
