[MBTI General] Describe your teenage self

[Slay]

Also dumb, crazy, wild things you did. What activities you were involved in

 

[Yama]

14 year old me was a super embarrassing INFP 4 knockoff brand and I am ashamed of him. God I can't even describe him except that he was like, the opposite of me now (and no that doesn't mean ENTJ, lol)

 

[Lady Lazarus]

No.

 

[erg]

No.

You really like this word "no", huh?

I was so horrible 16 and under. I believed in the kill or be killed mentality, thought feelings were stupid. Probably called a few people a crybaby. I made shitty role play websites, and somehow managed to avoid all the drama my siblings were involved in. I was obsessed with Hetalia, and wrote shitty fanfiction for it. I listened to be people's conversations and even wrote some of the things I heard down. I thought I was better than everyone especially at 13.

Very moody and temperamental. I would have probably have been typed as an unhealthy enneagram 4 if people got to know the 13-17 year old me. Enjoys solitude, whether through good moods or bad moods, since the external world saps my energy much quicker than the average person. Clumsy with fashion. Head in the clouds and has a tendency to bump into things by accident if I don't pay attention to my environment. Explosive anger at rude people since I just want everybody to get along and be friendly, and when they don't, I can become quite aggressive. Despite this alarming image, I am also easily moved to tears, who has a lot of love to give, but don't know how to. Always there for my friends, giving them advice and insights in ways that they haven't thought of before. Able to see underlying motives of certain individuals from miles away, though I was shoved aside as being too crazy for telling other people about what I think of someone. Would rather daydream my life away than to be a part of this world, and simultaneously, wishing I can be a part of this world and just be normal like everybody else.

I was pretty naive, I was shy, gentle, and kind of broody femme without realizing it. I didnt speak much because my voice was changing. I read a lot. lot lot of romance and scifi/fantasy. Cheerleading wasnt an option for me for reasons never explained to me, ended up in theatre. I was generally distracted, and quite perceptive about others emotions, and kinda clueless what to do about it. I mostly tried to keep some of my more personal things secret. I was kind of a stray cat through social circles.

Thats just too lovely...


I knew another ENFP guy who was a pretty big muscular guy and goofy at the same time. He wanted to wear dresses as a kid and luckily for him his mother went with it. A true hero of a man.

Aww ^_^

A big ball of mess mostly. Questioning existance, wanting to travel the world, to find myself, to find everyone else, to understand everything, everything out there in the future, i felt society was too constricting and life was too small.... all whilst drinking alcohol and taking drugs which I couldn't handle... overspill was not pretty. My drunk drug self was a very unhealthy ESXP drama drama drama. The sober me used to retreat and hide form the world. I am a calmer more content person now.

I can relate to that, I didnt get into the other aspect till after the Military spat me back out.

In my teenage years I was a very shy and nerdy person who could be really charming and outgoing when they wanted to be. I was bullied for various reasons by some of my peers which is something I still carry the effects to this day (I have trouble trusting people to some extent). I was always very interested in quirky and off the wall stuff like science experiment kits and surreal art and loved reading both fiction and non-fiction. I also aced all my classes but was embarrassed about it as I dont want to be seen as a cocky show off. [MENTION=30038]Gentleman Jack[/MENTION] I would say i was the ENTP version of you basically as we both lacked confidence in many ways.

Oh boy... grab a seat, kids!

I was a bit of a shy rebel, if that's a thing. I had 2 close friends in high school, and very few acquaintances. I was pretty quiet and awkward around anyone besides those 2 people. I never dated and was almost 18 when I started seeing my first boyfriend, who was pushing 23 (we stayed together for 5 years, pretty good guy and not a creepy cradle robber or anything). My dad died at the same time as 9/11 due to health issues. We didn't have contact at the time, but it affected me nonetheless and I pretty much stopped caring about school. I stopped doing homework, which led to embarrassment and skipping class, which led to skipping entire days, which led to me dropping out in my junior year with a GPA of zero-point-something. I racked up 9 truancy tickets and ended up having to do a shit ton of community service hours. I went to an alternative schooling program for dropouts in the beginning of my senior year and ended up graduating 6 months before the rest of my class. On the English exam, I got a score of 100%. The woman in the administration office was utterly shocked and said that she had never seen that happen before. I grew up poor and throughout high school I'd steal clothes so that no one could tell. I'm talking hundreds if not thousands of dollars worth of clothes. This was before ink tags were on everything. My friends would steal with me and once we collectively got caught. I was wearing what I stole under my clothes while my friends had stuck their stuff in bags. For this reason, I got away with it. I stopped stealing after that because I felt so guilty for what I had done over the years. One time, in study hall (which was in the cafeteria), a pregnant student wanted to go to the restroom but the teachers wouldn't let her. I got really pissed and threw a chair as far as I could and yelled something like "this is bullshit!" They sent me to the office. Another time, I was coming down the stairs with a friend while a teacher was coming up, and I said the word "fucking" in conversation. Said teacher asked me if I "kiss my mother with that mouth." I said "I don't kiss my fucking mother." Speaking of my mother, she sent me to a juvenile detention center once, complete with police escort and handcuffs after I threw a typical 13-ly tantrum. I cried the entire way and had to spend the weekend there. During my period. Thanks mom. We also used to do really embarrassingly stupid shit, like meet in this bathroom that we referred to as "the retard bathroom" because apparently we were fucking assholes (I come from the era of "retard" and "gay"). There, we would skip class and do dumb stuff like make enormous "spit balls" out of toilet paper and plaster them to the ceiling (that poor janitor), intentionally clog and flush toilets, effectively flooding the bathroom, and even wrote a ridiculous bomb-threat once to get out of finals which they literally handled by painting over it. I never really drank in high school, but I did smoke pot and closer to age 20 I *MAY* have done some harder drugs. (insert "cocaine is a helluva drug" joke)

I didn't realize until now just how awful I was

 

[Hiraeth]

Oh God, I hated those years.

I was super shy and awkward, a total outcast. Hated school and everyone there and just wanted to get the hell out ASAP. I went through many fair-weathered friends and eventually had one pretty good one, but we later drifted apart after going to different colleges. I was super depressed throughout most of my teenage years and never felt like I belonged anywhere (still don't, but I embrace who I am now). Just glad my high school years are completely over.

 

[entropie]

teenage self liked porn, beer, computer games...

but hadnt white hair!

 

[julesiscools]

Depressed and antisocial. High school sucked.

I was a very good student, being first ranked in my class through a couple of years. I ended up getting a B in Calculus senior year which messed that up so I ended up third in a class of about 600, not reaching my goal of being valedictorian. I played on the tennis team for two years and really enjoyed it but wasn't that good. I was on the chess team and we were good. We started that team when I was a freshman. The last couple of years, we won conference, division, and 4th then 3rd in state. We had flexible scheduling with 8 periods. You could go one to seven or two to eight. I always went one to eight as it allowed me to take more classes. I guess I did study a fair bit. I had a group of friends that I played cards with several times a week for a couple of years so I got good at that. We also sometimes played pool and ping pong which was fun. I was not into drugs though I did drink a few times. As to girls, I was extremely picky with looks and which ones I would consider going out with and at the same time too chicken to ask them out which wasn't a good recipe. There was one that asked me out and we dated three times I think. I did want to go to prom and at one point had asked this girl and we were going to go. Her parents would not let her as she was a sophomore and they thought I was too old. I asked some other ones including a really attractive one I sat next to in accounting class, that i got along with really well. There were others. My mom even asked a couple of girls. They all said no. So no prom. Then when I went into college, in the fall of freshman year, I met and fell in love with a very beautiful girl and was with her for three years until she moved away for an internship of sorts. I was with her constantly. It was kind of like being married in college. I almost never skipped high school. In college, I would go to classes if I needed to go which was usually. It depended on the teacher. I was not wild or crazy much at all in my teenage years. I worked all through school during the semesters and summers - in the cafeteria, as a night guard in a freshman girls dorm (that was nice), working in warehouses, odd jobs through a temp agency, as a busboy in a Greek restaurant, etc. Pretty steady and stable kind of person I guess except that I did tend to procrastinate and pull a lot of all nighters to get stuff done and study for tests.
