What was your favourite age growing up?

- 16-26.
I got my first car and my first girlfriend when I was 16. It was my first year of high school. I became known as a rock guitarist and vocalist in bands. I went to lots of concerts and saw the most amazing bands. I was also surfing, skateboarding and did a lot of snow skiing and backpacking. I had a lot of friends and partied like a Viking. All I had was fun and adventure. I had jobs but was carefree.
Things changed when I got handed a corporate job at age 26. I had to cut my hair and wear a suit. My life focused on my job. The benefit was, I started making really good money and had to grow up. But the carefree days of my youth were gone.Is this still revelant?It was, Marianna. All I wanted to do was to be free and have fun when I was young. I never had any idea what I wanted to do when I grew up and I never pursued a career. I attended community college, but never focused on a major.
That's why I was extremely lucky to fall in to that job working in the field for the insurance company. It was a great company. I stuck with it for 30 years and retired with a pension and a lot of money in a 401(k). After I got married, they grated me a transfer to where I live now. My wife and I have been here now for 20 years and we love our home. If I hadn't gotten that job, I don't know what would have become of me.
- I’m gonna say anything from 13 years old or younger. Once I started going through puberty, it was all downhill from thereIs this still revelant?

- That was my least favorite age. 😔
Not sure I like any age better than the one I'm currently at, TBH. I love the freedom of adulthood and don't mind the responsibilities that come with it one bit. If I had to pick my favorite time in my childhood and adolescence though, I'd probably pick either around age 7-ish for the fun memories, and around 15-19 to redo in order to make life much easier on myself. I really made life unnecessarily hard in my teens, and really struggled with being self conscious and unconfident, too. There are so many things I could've done better and so many ways of thinking I could've adopted to have made the time easier.Is this still revelant? - I would have to agree with the age range. Things were easier thenIs this still revelant?

2136- Sixteen. I was super depressed and suicidal which sucked but also I had all the confidence in the world that I was the baddest mf who ever touched a football. I called myself the “unfair advantage”
so my head was pretty blown up but that confidence is still something I miss.ReactLike

Yeah it is. I only had one though because I didn’t give a shit about what peoples’ reaction to what I thought of them so I was pretty blatant
Hmmm... i don't know i never talked to u so i don't know for a fact if u are a bad friend
Haha thanks. Hopefully I’m better now. I became a lot more diplomatic around 17, which I’m not sure is a good thing.
- 0-7 I was figuring everything out I was incent and was discovering myself and the world around me! 🥰React

- 19 -21 because I was so care free back then. Also, I was out on my own and I don’t have the fondest childhood memories. I was made fun of at school and my parent were negligent.React
