Do you think your personality is closer to who you were as a child or something life shaped over time?

Nah, I'm the same as I've always been (minus the similar intense perviness XD ), just more seasoned and intensified. :)

In some ways yes, but I was a very angry kid and I’m glad that part is gone.

Completely different now! Becoming a parent was when I first started to really change.

I'm kinder now and I have more restraint. As a kid I would just get into fights with other kids if I thought they said or did something they shouldn't have been. I still have the same sense of justice and loyalty, I'm just calmer with it.

That's commendable, keeping the kid spirit alive.

No, I think I'm more different now. But of course some core values have stayed and traits, like my humor too. I've been goofy my whole life.

There is a part of me that is still the child, or at least wishes that I was, and that's deep inside this broken and cynical robot 🤔

I've changed a lot, and mostly for the better. I grew up with racism, homophobia, ableism, etc. I'm working hard on leaving that behind.

Vastly different. I was a very innocent and naive child who didn’t know anything about the world.

Something life-shaped. My mother told me that my personality drastically changed when I was a child. When I was a toddler I was allegedly fearless and quite social and had a lot of energy. Then I changed, got quiet, shy and overly cautious. Of course, I can't remember it. I remember that I had anxiety all my life. There are traits that stick with me and traits that changed with different stages of life.

I was very shy as a child.. i’m less so now..

I'm really not like a kid anymore, except when it comes to my liking of film and music. Too many experiences, both good and bad, have molded me into the person that I am today. It's a shame in a way, I used to be carefree and live life to the fullest. Now I'm anxious all the time, I worry constantly, I'm lonely, and I'm sad a lot.

Definitely plenty of elements that have stuck around. The dreamer, the humor, the introvert. I suppose even with them hanging around the adult version of me has made it all a little bit more grounded. I can accept that sometimes the need to function is going to outweigh a feeling.

I don't think ive changed much. Im a little more open to changes in small doses. I mean we all adapt and evolve over time in varying degress. I think something i miss and appreciate more is humor. I let the perv out occasionally as well

I'm the same as you, personality is basically still the same as when I was a kid. Same humor. Same fear of people and crowds. The only thing that’s changed is I’m way more pervy now.
Kinda scary right?

There is still a lot of the child in me: love of the outdoors, curiosity, etc. I have gained more confidence over the years, and that's good.

Life shaped over time. Im definately not who I was as a child.

Life lessons have allowed me to grow, to be less myopic, to care. I owe it all to women I’ve had relationships with.

Well lets see, I`m taller and older, but still have the mind of a 12 year old. ;)

Same here
🙋🏻‍♂
Minus the pervy part

Same, goofy as ever, even more so!!

All of the above, I keep my child self well and here but I have also changed and grown!
