Wise beyond your years?

**Vistravi** · 04-Mar-09, 16:25

Does anyone else feel wise beyond their years?

Anyone else feel older than they are?

I often feel as if i am almost 30 despite being only 20. I think the last few years have caused that. I often look at people my own age and think that i feel so much older than them.

Some of my mates who are a year or so younger than me to me are sometimes quite naive and trusting and i can't help but think that I wasn't like that at their age.

I'm the second oldest of 6 and when i was 16 I felt like I was more respinsible and turstowrthy than moy older brother who is 4 years older then me

my parents did say this to me then as well and my mum only said so last night to me bout it.

You are the youngest of 16 children?

**Bazeye** · 04-Mar-09, 17:01

No theyre the second oldest of sixteen.

Until recently yes, I also felt old than my age. I am now 25 and I finally feel my age, up until the last year or so I felt like you. Don't worry, sometimes it can be a good thing.

Quite the contrary. I am 54 and I don't feel any more wise than when I was 18.

i do but i only ever get down about it towards my birthday.

live for the moment once in a while try being spontanous(spelling

) try going out side your usual box suprise your self you are still young enough to make a fool of yourself and get away with it

be your trustworthy self there is nothing wrong with that but remember your only here once (i should listen to my own advise sometimes )

vistravi,you seem like you have had the world on your shoulders at some point and its the hard knocks of life that has made you grow up into a kind and thoughtful person.but just as there is sorrow in life there is joy too.you sound like a caring person but you have to take care of yourself too,so live a little and enjoy life and cherish all that you still have.none of us knows what tomorrow brings......
