you aged too quickly? Mentally. Almost like you were forced to grow up.

Have you guys ever felt like...
-
Yes.Boobies!!!!!
-
Yes.
I never was a kid "mentally".
-
I'm still a kidAlthough, an interesting point here... As western culture has disposed of many traditional rights of passage observed by our tribal ancestors, some psychologists suggest that we have developed into a society of perpetual adolescents. I suggest that you go out, kill something, eat it's flesh while it's still warm and follow up with a ritual scarification. Only then, will you truly be an adult.

I fear I've revealed too much about myself

Well, I hit puberty when I was 8, and I was never around many kids just adults, so I didn't even learn how to be a kid until I met this 12 year old girl... when I was 14.
My ex hated her with a passion and was 00ber jealous of her which is funny since she was 12 and my ex was almost 16. But I spent as much time with her as I could because I only saw her once a week and she was the only person I've ever been able to be a kid around.
Shame she got into drugs and turned into a judgemental sloth =/

I refused to grow up, maybe part of it was mostly being in the country and nothing was on tv and nobody to play with, except the dogs, so I spent most of time outside playing pretend well into my twenties. And something I've never admitted to anyone often when I'm driving home in my mind I'm still piloting a starship around Bespin or Hoth or diving in the Nautilus and plundering merchant ships and exploring reefs or have my arm out the window with my hand being a plane or something that docks with the mothership in the dead air space behind the mirror or piloting a zeppelin over the Andes. ...it's a long drive home. Come to think of it, maybe I did grow up to quickly which is why I've never grown up. I've always known misery is just a heartbeat away and the real world is a cold, uncaring place and that's why I've always retreated into my own little fantasy worlds.

Yeah I completely see where your coming from.When I was around 13 I matured way faster than the people around me and before I was 16 I felt like I was in my 20's. Which makes things hard when your friends are all immature and still think the best way to go out and get drunk. It's like I've been there and done it so I'm not really interested in it anymore. Maybe when I'm older I'll get back into it but i just feel that I've out grown it.I guess you can age too quickly because of sociological reasons aswell as person circumstances so at the end of the day everyone is different.Hawk

I never was a "kid"....I never grew up either!

yes, I miss being a kid. I feel as if I started growing up too earlier. I guess that you can say that I really started growing up as more and more problems in my life came up. For example, my parent's divorce, my grandmother's death, my mother abandoning my family, other deaths, etc. I feel as if these events in my life had forced me to become much more independent than the average person my age, forcing me to "grow up."
