Hey I totally get it! It’s hard wanting what you can’t have. People who have to work or have to stay home, I wish we all had better choices! I wish someone would pay me to stay home too, haha. Mostly so I could afford to go to the doctor!

My 15 year old self would say the same thing about not accomplishing anything. I went to college and had a baby but I still want more. And oh man I feel you on the stomach issues. Mine actually started when I was a teen though but I had them getting much much worse to look forward to. Three surgeries later and I still…

I was pretty liberal as a teen (my group of hipster friends and I all consider ourselves communists) and then I made a sharp turn for conservatism after getting my first job and being outraged about taxes, and then I’ve been sliding quickly left for the past few years once I got my head out of my ass. The more…

Mine would be appalled it took me 7 years to get my BA. Granted I had to take a lot of time off for illness (which would have sent 15 year old self over the edge and I wouldn’t blame her!) but you gotta do what you gotta do!

I look at teenagers and think “gosh I was just that age” and then realize that “just” means 10 years ago and I’m actually way older than I think I am!

I give you a thumbs up for marrying a long haired metal guy! My husband had long luscious hair when we first started dating but the poor guy is going very bald. Still as good looking as ever though!

I actually had beautiful clear skin as a teen and then developed adult acne. I’d be so pissed! Actually, I am still pissed!

I can’t even think about my 19 year old self. Way too embarrassing.

My 15 year old self would be livid that I married a guy who BMXed instead of skateboarded, haha!

Prescription medication has completely wrecked my memory! I don’t remember a lot of high school, just vague details about who I was and what emotions I went through.

I think having dogs instead of cats would have shocked me! I’ve been afraid of dogs my entire life (thanks to an attorney dad and evidence sized posters of dog attacks) and now I own one that’s 120lbs! I miss having cats every day though. As soon as I get a place with a good spot for a litter box I want like 3.

I was actually pretty liberal at 15 but went through a Republican phase at 20 that still embarrasses me. I mean, we all have to go through an awkward Republican phase right? Right?!

I will always daydream about perfect curls and my hair is straight as straw! My 15 year old self would be similarly impressed with how far I’ve come with my social anxiety, but she’d probably be pissed I still hate ordering pizza over the phone. But then she’d learn we can do it online and she’d be stoked.

God the money we could have made in Apple stock!!!

I have a lot of chronic health problems (mostly gastrointestinal so you can guess how fun that is) and that’s really the main reason I stay at home right now. I’m hoping once my daughter is older and I feel better that I can actually get out in the world!

I think my 15 year old self would be happy if my kid ends up cooler than I was because that isn’t saying much, hahaha!

Mine too! I am loving reading everyone’s responses!

Ah yes I dreamed of lofts too! I’d be so disappointed with my cookie cutter suburban house. I’d have cried.

Can I just say how thankful I am that I didn’t marry my 15 year old FIRST LOVEEE. HUGE DODGED BULLET!

SAME! That was my exact same dream and exactly where I am now. I think I’d be disappointed with my lack of sex now as a married person. This is so weird but I was one horny teenager. Lord help me with my daughter.
