He'd absolutely approve of how I am right now. I got exactly what my 15 year old self wanted. It's my 25 year old self right now that doesn't like where I am very much. At least in terms of my personal life. My younger self wanted me to have dedicated my entire life towards science and medicine - the only things of value in this world, he (I) thought. Personal relationships are fleeting, everyone ages, and what matters is doing what is best for the species.

I followed his advice. I hate myself because now I am alone. All alone. And the pain is horrendous.

Every single action I have taken has destroyed, willingly, any chance at a social life. Swore of drinking. Swore off parties. Swore off clubs and hobbies. 10 years spent studying. Following the straight and narrow path towards academic success.... and for what? To realize that all my classmates in Medicine achieved nearly the exact same results without having to give up their social life. To realize that I have turned myself into an emotional basket-case unnecessarily.

While I am quite proud of certain aspects of myself, I am consumed with a deep, deep loathing for other aspects of my personality, and I despise my younger self. It'll take another 10 years of work to undo the damage he has done to us.

my younger self would most likely make some asshole comment and I would beat the shit out of him. I was a little asshole, now I am still an asshole but fuck are kids like 2000% more annoying as asholes. There insults make no sense and their grapse of logic sucks. Atleast we would both still have horrible spelling and grammer lol.

Pretty much this. He and I would both view each other as dumbasses with stupid world views.

He'd be impressed with my grown level of nerdiness, and would more or less just be me, but smaller.

Pretty much the same level of socially liberal thinking.

Pretty much the same hobby, but I'm more into the I.V.'s and E.V.'s of Pokemon now.

More facial hair, which is always a good thing.

This.

Also, he'd probably be blown away by all the current gen system games I have. He would also be impressed by all the "M" rated games I play that he couldn't play.

Well, only 16 but I have a fair few talents...
Extreme Sarcasm among them but hey, you win some you lose some.
But I think I'd be proud of what I can do, but disappointed about my fitness :(

I'd probably be suprised that I've become alot taller than I was at 13/14. I think she'd also be quite pleased that I got some actual friends and I fixed a part of my insecurities. I think the few things past me would be sad about that I'm not living in England, don't currently have a boyfriend and that I'm not going to study Psychology. Law school is the way now for me :)

Yeah, this, depending on how far back you go. 'Junior year of high school' me would be dreading where I am right now, whereas '1st grade' me would be excited about where I am right now.

Younger me - "Why are you on the computer all the time? Isn't it boring just typing all day?"

Older me - "I would go out and play ball tag everyday, anyday but I'm the only one my age who wants to."

Younger me - "Growing old sucks."

Older me - "I can drive now."

Younger me - :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Younger me: "Oh my god... I'm gay when I'm older?! Wait... What's bi-sexuality? OH MY GOD, YOU HAVE SO MUCH ANIME/ MANGA! You know free porn sites? Why do I look decent? When did I finally get my hair dyed?! I'm a photographer? I wanted to be a psychologist though :( I'm no longer a virgin!?"
The me now: "Yeah, about that... I'm getting you laid now."

Yeah :') I think it would go something like that. Apart from I don't think the 'younger me' would like the music I played in the car... Unless I had a secret passion for Asking Alexandria, Slipknot and Bring Me The Horizon back then.

Followed by: "Why does Mummy and Daddy hate us? :("
To which I'll have to break to younger-self: "Because you were a mistake, Jack... You were always a mistake."

LOL :')

Seeing as how I haven't conquered the world, don't have a ninja army, or a fighter jet....
He'd be unhappy...

Depending on how young, either stoked that I am much healthier all around now or homophobic just because I like to cook now. I was pretty closed minded

He...er, I, would hate me. And I would hate him...er, me...

We would hate each other. I was an annoying little kid. I also hated any "grown up" because they did things I didn't like, so...

Why are so many people able to get along with their younger selves. ;__;

For me, it'd probably be a mix.

It'd be like "Oh, you lost weight! That's good! But you're still kinda chubby... oh, well, you know, Rome wasn't built in- what?- 10 years now?

and you've had two girlfriends! And one was really really hot! But you're single now and sad about it all the time!

You skate now! But you're fucking terrible...

You have a job! And it's fucking terrible...

You have an amazing gaming laptop! But you use it for browser games and Haven and Hearth...

... wait, scratch that last one, Haven and Hearth is aawwwwwweeesssoommmmeee." *inter-time high five*

He probably wonder why I'm so obsessed with writing all of a sudden and why I stopped playing Nintendo. He probably wonder why I get bitter so easily too. And why I watch a show for girls.

I figure he'd think what I'm doing for a living and that I work from home is pretty neat. He'd probably be glad to know that he isn't going to look the way he does (did?) for long. Hopefully he would take the advice about posture and such a little more seriously after seeing the direct results of not doing so. He'd be shocked to find out that not only am I going back to school soon, but I consider it a good thing too.
