did people stop telling you how wonderful you were and what great potential you had and stop caring if you weren't living up to it?
I just noticed it myself.
People used to tell me how wonderful I was all the time and then I guess I was about 25 or so when it stopped. I started getting all frantic about not getting enough attention and stuff. I'm sure some of you remember.
Anyway... it just struck me what might have brought on the change and I was wondering if anyone else experienced the same sort of thing...
So when exactly:
Did that happen to you?
Did you lose your virginity?
Did you fall in love?
Did you break someone's heart?
Did you realize how much you didn't know?
Did you realize you had to start over?
Did you lose your way?
Did you abandon your past?
Did you stop looking forward and start looking back?
Did you lose your first love?
Did you give up?

Re: Actually, I'm still being told that. In less grandiose terms. But i'm not yet 25.

I only remember being told that a few times, when I was in my late teens.
