If you could write a letter to your teenage self?!


Question: I was listening to the radio where a song called Letter to Me by Brad Paisley come on. It got me wondering.

If you could write a letter to your 15 year old self and send it back in time to them what would you say?
(it doesn't have to be personal its just for fun)

I know in the song It is 17 but I am 15 so I am using my age.

This is mostly for adults Not for people to joke and say "i'll tell you when I am 15"

Dear Younger Mikah

Don't worry. High school will soon be over and things will get better. There is a life out there for you. Don't listen to your so-called friends. They are hurting you. Please eat. I know you don't love yourself, but I love you very much.

All the devotion in the world
Older Mikah, smiling

Take school much more seriously

i would say hi

You become 17 plus and do all other things.

id say why were u such a bum go out there and bone some biddys

i have already done this as a matter of fact, as a part of making peace with a very difficult teenage past. I wrote a letter telling that very scared frightened person not to end her life because it was going to be alright and things would get better in the years to come and not to be afraid. oddly enough as a 15 year old i only did not kill myself in the end because i knew deep down that things would get better. weird if you think about it.

I'd say dear me:
Everything is not as big of a deal as you think it is. You'll find the perfect guy, don't worry. College is rough at first, but you'll get through it. Never buy a hamster, and make sure you spend more time with your grandpa because you don't have much time left with him.

I would tell myself not to give up on the love of my life...

oui! I would say so much like DONT DRINK. STAY IN SCHOOL! KEEP THAT JOB U HAD! DON'T SLEEP WITH THAT GUY!! I would say so much! Listen to ur parents they realy know whats best usualy

I would tell myself not to be so bashful and to court the young ladies properly and frequently.

stay close to your friends and don't stray away from society. i stopped caring to be around people when i was 15 and now i've lost my ability to communicate!

to not get invovled in relationships cuz it doesnt help u and u can get in some bad stuff

I would write and say 'Be careful Phoebes, I know you think you have your life ahead of you and that you can fulfill all your dreams and ambitions and that your sister falling pregnant this year has made you even more determined but just watch what you're doing. Don't drink and don't have holiday flings because your life 'lacks excitement'. Stick with your boyfriend who loves you very much and work hard.'...I found out I was pregnant a couple of days after my 16th birthday

First I would tell myself to study a little more.
Not to be so hard on myself.
Enjoy myself as much as I can.
Love my family as much as I can, but don't do too many favors for them. (they learned how to abuse my generosity)
NOT to marry my first husband.
And not to make the choice of my college curriculum seriously.
Stop eating so many m & m's.
Learn to take on more social groups and classes.

great question. I would tell my 15 year old self to get it together and warn myself about what not to do...there's just too much I would say really...I've been through a lot...and a lot of it could have been avoided.
examples-love yourself first
-wait on relationships
-follow your passions
-believe in yourself
-listen and learn
-realize parents really do know a lot
-be the friend I want to have
-be true to myself

Appreciate everything you have, respect your parents, set goals for you like, have fun in a healthy way.

I would write to myself this:
never be afraid of anything, be yourself, and never give up, and let people know your real self, so they love you and hate you for who you really are.
The best thing in life is to love and be loved in return.
so do not chase love where you will never get it.

don't listen to your mother, because you are not worthless, and you will amount to something someday!!

1. Stop being so serious
2. Make more friends; don't wait until Senior Year
3. Listen to your parents, otherwise they are going to kick you out of the house in a few weeks (I got kicked out when I was 15)

I would say: Study harder for that exam, Don't marry that guy, and save your pennies!

Dear 15-yr old Erica,
I'm sorry you suffered with glasses and braces,
And being forced to go to an all-girls high school.
But don't worry...you are going to go to school in TX for a year and have the time of your life, and you will realize that you are indeed beautiful...despite what those stupid kids say about you now!

The world does not end in 1999. Do not sell off all you own!!

Dear self,
I know you want to have fun, but you have to realize that is not all that matters. Stop using your family as an excuse of why your so screwed up because trust me, they get worse. You need to be sober and alert for whats ahead. Oh yeah, your future husband is a hottie.

Love,

self

LOL I love this question!!!

Dear 15-year old Stefanie:

1. He just isn't that into you
2. The pretty girls and popular girls will not matter to you in 10 years
3. Study harder
4. You are not too good to work at McDonald's
5. Mom and Dad actually know what they are talking about
6. Your little sister is annoying but remember that she is looking up to you so you had better be setting a good example
7. Your high school teachers can serve as great references for college and future careers; stay in touch
8. Stick with it; no matter what it is and how bad you hate it
9. Math is not as important as being well spoken and well written (this is arguable, I know - but I spent too much of my time trying to figure out things I'd never use. I just don't have that math gene)
and
10. Shush. Gossip hurts. Don't say negative anything.

You're going to have a blast. Honest! The awkwardness is going to go away, and you're actually going to become a pretty competent, attractive adult. Oh, and dump James now, he's no good (but if you don't, you'll be so graceful when it all goes wrong that he'll probably wish he was never a d**k to you.) And hold out for a very lovely boy called Daniel. You'll find him where you least expect to...

In the end, all that matters is who's by your side for journey.

Wow - what a great question! I'd give you 10 points just for the question!

I'd tell myself a lot of things...like listen to your parents because they always, always have your best interest in mind and there's not much you could experience that they haven't already experienced too.

I'd tell myself not to settle for anything less than the truest and purest love, and not to get discouraged, because even if it takes a little while, he will find you. And when he does, you will know it like you know your own name.

I'd tell myself that sorrows don't drown, they float.

And I'd tell myself about the value of freedom here in the U.S.A. and how it's important to thank a service person when you see them, because they'd be willing to take a bullet in the brain for you, and they don't even know your name.

That's a very interesting question i may give u a star after repleying.
I would basically just say to myself work harder in school, because all i did was muck around. I did come away with a couple of GCSE'S after leaving school, as i only started working hard during the last couple of months of my last year and I just wish i could have tryed harder rather going out every night with my freinds with not a care in the world! lol xx

im 34 now, to me it seems like i was 15 not too long ago. i got pregnant in high school as soon as i graduated :) (hard but i did) i got married to my babies father. i did not go to college. everything seems so perfect me with my baby with my own family thought nothing would ever go wrong. but it did, after waisting 13 years of my life and 2 babies later i realized i had made a big mistake this person i thought i was in love with. i have 2 kids i love to death, but now i know the importance of what my mom always told me about going to school and getting a degree. i did not understand it then but i do now. because now i have to work full time in a job that really doesnt offer me what i believe i deserve. so i think if i could go back in time it woule definetly be getting a degree, and not rushing in to getting married. although i dont regret my kids cause i love them to death i wish they had came at a time where i had totally finished accomplishing my dreams.

I am 48 years old and have many, many regrets.
A letter to myself at 15 would say:
Don't wait to go to college.
Save your money.
Don't drink and drive.
Don't smoke.
When you see a pretty girl, ask her for a date and don't worry about her saying no.
The people that today you think are cool are going to disappoint you someday, and the people you think are silly are the ones you will someday admire.

You have asked a great question. I'm looking forward to how others respond. I hope the young people will learn from the mistakes of the people who have gone before them.

to my 15 year old self hummmmmmmmm i that woiuld make no sense b/c i would be sending it into the future
