I think I was excited. Now? I mean technically I’m an adult but I’m not feeling it… not exactly excited anymore

azure lagoon
#

Yes, I was excited to be a grown up when I was little. I wanted my own space, pets, friends, lover. Still growing up, not a little one, and now I'm scared to grow up fully.

I always had assumed I would be a train driver as a kid, so I looked forward to it. It wasn't a big dream, but I enjoyed thinking about it.

Now I do maintenance and development for the US Navy. It's a step up but honestly I kind want to still drive a train.

acoustic socket
#

I was. I wanted to get away from my family and have my own money and independence. As much as it can really suck to be an adult, I wouldn't give it up for anything.

fervent gulch
#

my reaction to that question:

#

but to answer it yes i absolutely wanted to grow up

#

(i regret it deeply)

azure lagoon
#

not really

fervent gulch
#

Little me wanted to grow up so she could be top of the school like the 8th graders. Cuz that was the highest grade to peruse at the time.

azure lagoon
#

once i saw how sad they were

#

i was like

#

no thx

fervent gulch
#

But my parents always told me how much they wish to be a kid again and to stay being a kid

#

i wish i listened cuz i did so much to wanna be grown

#

And then in 2020-21 it got worse because cringe culture started taking over and telling people how to live their lives. So i felt stuck on how to express myself cuz people called me "cringe"

#

I can happily say even with cringe culture at its peak today i'm showing my real self a bit more around people.

forest loom
#

I really never was. Adults always sucked to me. But I know that once you get to that certain age, you realize that you can't wait to get the fuck out of where you came from.

fervent gulch
#

I lowkey wanna give my pre-teen and 13yr old self a hug

#

especially cuz during 2020 someone was doing something horrible to her

#

she deserved better.

#

I just wanted to be a teen

#

never really an adult

#

except maybe a few times

#

cuz they get a lot of food n stuff?

#

#

I can't wait to be an adult only to be able to make my own damn decisions

#

and not be bossed around

#

I never really had a specific thing I wanted to do come to think if it i picked something so people would quit asking me but tbh I just want to be happy doing whatever thing I want at the time I don't really have a specific career in want. I just want to have fun

Yes i was and still am, also grateful that i am, autonomy is a beautiful thing, i don’t want to be a kid/teen again

blissful notch
#

yes cause i was like "freedom !!!! I can sleep and do whatever whenever"

azure lagoon
#

No the second I realized I would never have nap time again I was sad 😭

idle plinth
#

No. But I had a certain excitement for reaching age eleven. Because it was my favorite number so I always got excited about the thought of being eleven.

At most now, I'm just excited to be able to get my own place when I have the money and be taken seriously because I'll officially be an adult in a couple years. So I'll have more freedom. I'm not excited to have to be stuck doing things like taxes. But hey, there's worse things.

Yeah, I was, but also wasn't and I want to go back to being a kid, adulthood is heckin' stressful, but I want to get away from my toxic and homophobic parents

sage stag
#

Yeah I wanted to have my own house and stuff but not anymore because it's so expensive and complicated

sweet crest
#

Absolutely. I wanted to be able to make real choices, and to stop being treated as a brainless moron. As a sharp kid, that was endlessly frustrating. Any observations, thoughts, or anything I did was dismissed by every adult I met, simply because of the age of my body, rather than considering the age of my mind.

#

I'm not saying sharper kids are superior or anything!! I'm the most chaotic, crazy, and academically idiotic of all the people I know. This is just an infuriating observation, when I was in the mood to think but no one wanted to listen.

#

Trying to talk and have a real, meaningful conversation with an adult who can keep up with you, but everyone just looks at you with this "aww, how cute" and completely dismisses any intellectual capability or yearning.

#

(omg sorry for the text wall!)

eager charm
#

I wanted to know that I can eat whatever I want, all day every day, now I'm in 11th grade I don't want to have to deal with the finances of getting ice cream all the time

#

✨ no ✨

nova pollen
#

I was excited because my sisters made it sound like freedom. I never imagined that my process of growing up would be full of shouting and failing grades lol. Tbh, I just wanted freedom from the car seat though-

wicked heath
#

Absolutely not. The only thing that even remotely excited me. Go driving.

lone spruce
#

Nah

real egret
#

I wanted to grow up for the freedom/independence it brought, not realizing that you're the freest as a kid.

deft isle
winter wedge
#

İ was excited about being strong, independent and becoming a soldier when i grow up (Do not want to become a soldier now, wish to just have a breath and relax)

buoyant sable
#

As a kid I remember thinking being an adult meant that you had all the freedom in the world, could do whatever you wanted and only have to worry about yourself. Now as an adult, I see that all of those things have downsides to them. I still like being an adult, but eh, it's not all that

north topaz
#

No way I wanted to be a kid forever

woeful sequoia
#

Nope, I knew about taxes for a LONG time and have always wanted to avoid them, also the impending sense of my own death but mostly the taxes
