Thread: If you could tell your 15 year old self something, what would it be?

I feel like most people have general regrets in life. They think back to their teens especially and wish they had made better choices when it comes to carious things. If you could go back in time and tell yourself something when you were 15, what would it be and how would you expect It to impact your life?

It's a difficult question because there have been inevitabilities in my life that not even the best life advice ("kill yourself" aside which isn't good advice at all and may break the space-time continuum) could have prevented. That being said, I'm sure I could make a few positive suggestions.

"Don't trust the prestigious college you'll be able to get into because it's actually kind of crap compared to the common one."

"Try not being too much of a cunt to the first women in your life, but don't expect them to keep their promises."

"Don't give up swimming. It might prevent a belly and it did help keep you really skinny for a long time."

"Change your primary gaming preference to PC."

That's all for now.

Honestly I would probably tell myself to just chill out more, and not concern myself with the opinions of others. I don't think it would have had much of an impact to my life as that's what I've learned to do when I hit 20

Probably to just relax and be safe in the knowledge that everyone else on Earth is too caught up in themselves to care, and that no one else has any idea what they're doing either.
