Would the teenage YOU be friends with the Adult You?

No I don't think i would like me, well maybe a little bit. As a teen no adults knew anything or deserved respect from me because i obviously knew everything and knew more about the world than them. And any advice they offerred would have been ignored. One might say i was a rebel when in fact all i was was a little******* with nothing really wrong in my life so i had to pretend to be angry at the world. Now i am all placid and mellow and try to be friendly and do the decent and right thing, i have a great relationship with my 2 daughters but i really feel that if i met the teenage me he would hate me:) having said that i work with teenagers now and often see kids just like i was and usually they gravitate towards me as a mentor or whatever you want to call it so maybe i am wrong and the teenage me would have confided in me and came to me for guidance. Not convinced the adult me would like the teenage me though, there is another question;)

Honestly, we could be good friends. One adviser and one that needs to be advised, since I happen to be lost at times during my teenage days. an adult me could make the change on that, somehow!;)LoL I would also want to teach my younger me to be more responsible, as I used to be a "happy-go-Lucky" type of a teenager back then. But I do believe that I've grown more compared to the teenager I was back then, I learn to be more patient and prefers to accomplish things without even asking for anyone's help.

no, hahaha. i was quite a rebel when i was in my teens. and my mom is a stay at home mom who does not know many things about the outside world. my dad is a workaholic though he loves us so much he spends too much time at work and even sleeps at the office 5 times a week. now i have four children and all of them are in their teens now and i can say we have a good relationship than i have with my mom. i understand them and give advices too. i know what is happening in the world out there for i am aware of it.

What a great question. I think that teen me would be horrified by adult me. 1. where did the last 35 years go. 2. what happened to the 3 feet of hair that I had. 3. Where is the anarchic attitude. 4. You mean that you've been faithful to the same woman for 21 years. 5. You had a job. 6. Where did that belly come from. LOSER. Except that we said something much ruder then. I'm not sure that the adult me would very much want to be friends with teen me either. One thing that we do have in common though is our sense of fair play and our complete conviction that people are generally good, until they demonstrate differently. Now, teen p1kef1sh, let's go and get, for you, an underage drink.

The adult me would definately not like the teenage me, I was horrible. I am 34 now and I have only grown up over the last few years and I am a totally totally different person from what I was back then. I would have ended up giving the teenage me a hiding and I certainly understand how my poor mum felt, I am surprised she still has anything to do with me!!!

Teen me would be Adult me's friend because, while I have matured and a few of my thoughts on certain issues have changed, I am still Teen Me at the core of my being. I am still as much of a goofball today as I was back then, just a little bit smarter and slightly more mature!

If my teenage self saw me (I'm now 22) we would get along just fine. I really haven't changed much since except I now am more motivated to do well in school. Back then it was just a necessity now the stakes are higher with college.

Oh I think my teenage me would hang out with the now me. I mean, I have always been a bit serious and a bit of a loner, but I love a good joke...even English humor. I'm even still me, I just have had those adventures that I dreamed about as a youngster.

I think that I defiently would be friends with myself now...becaus I really haven't changed that much and i am still a teenager for the rest of this year...I think that I have matured somewhat this year...but for the most part I think that I have stayed the same as I have always been...again the only thing that might have changed is that i matured a little..

I think both of us will hate each other :-) But the adult me will be more understanding and tolerating to the teenager me.

Hmm, this is a tough one. I think maybe I would because both versions of me are equally lonely, and always on the lookout for kindred spirits. Although, the more I think about it, my teenage self might have thought that my adult self was a bit weird. And vice versa.
