I think my past self would cringe at my present self. 😕

@turningthekeys Because...reasons. 😒

@TheFlippantSide Perfectly describes my situation as well. The old me would not be very proud of what future me has become.

Yes, with a little smile too .....:)
Fauxmyope2 · 31-35, F
Sometimes! I have learned a lot from my mistakes though.
SW-User
Yes. I had a very wild past and to know me now you wouldnt think I did the things I did. But my past made me what I am today so I leave my past in the past, where it belongs deeply hidden, in a locked safe inside my brain. 😎

Every time that I think about it. I made some bad decisions but am a stronger person today because of it.
Torsten · 36-40, M
sure do. certainly far from perfect at times
I still try every day to live down my past.
SubstantialKick · 36-40, M
I am not proud of my past at all.
turningthekeys · 31-35, F
@SubstantialKick me neither.
SubstantialKick · 36-40, M
@turningthekeys Yeah, and letting go of it has been one of my biggest struggles.
SW-User
Constantly.
turningthekeys · 31-35, F
@SW-User do those thoughts interrupt your day to day tasks? or are you able to push them aside?
SW-User
@turningthekeys they just appear at random times on random days. And I'm like "wtf was that dude".
turningthekeys · 31-35, F
SW-User
All the time.
turningthekeys · 31-35, F
@SW-User all the time? like all day?
SW-User

turningthekeys · 31-35, F
@SW-User ahahahaha
SW-User
@turningthekeys I've done some stupid shit! ahahahahaa!
indyjoe · 56-60, M
Of course I was not perfect and I still am not perfect...there are a few things I cringe at the thought/memory of, but though I may not be exactly proud of a lot of it I don't necessarily cringe at the bad/not so good parts of it for the most part either.

@lilangel does it interrupt your daily activities?
lilangel · 26-30, F
If I get a flashback of it from something I see on TV or on my phone I start feeling sorry for myself. It’s a matter of not seeing things that trigger bad memories for me. I get really triggered.@turningthekeys
Selah ·
Cant cringe if i blocked it out😜
turningthekeys · 31-35, F
@Selah how do you manage to block it out?
Selah ·
@turningthekeys maybe i cringed so hard i damaged that part of my brain
TheBatQueen · 22-25, F
Oh god I cringe so bad I feel like sticking my head in the ground like an ostrich
turningthekeys · 31-35, F
@TheBatQueen oh. do the thoughts interrupt your daily activities? like reading and studying?
TheBatQueen · 22-25, F
@turningthekeys no no , sometimes I think about my past mistakes and there are really awful
WillaKissing · 56-60, M
Never ever perfect. I was Blessed and I survived a lot I should not have, and it only made me a better and stronger person. But damn sure never perfect.
JupiterDreams · 31-35

turningthekeys · 31-35, F

@turningthekeys Got you all rebellious into your adult years, didn't it?
SW-User
Yeah..I did some stupid stuff through impulsiveness.
turningthekeys · 31-35, F
@SW-User (me too)
afterlight · 56-60, M
There are a lot of past memories that should never see the light of day. Lots of embarassing stupid things.
turningthekeys · 31-35, F
@afterlight same.

Yes. Dumb mistakes
deadmoon · 31-35, F
I don't cringe at my past. I glamorize the shit out of my past. I cringe at my present.
turningthekeys · 31-35, F
@deadmoon why?
and what changed?
deadmoon · 31-35, F
@turningthekeys The fact that I don't like the person I have become. I didn't like myself very much back then either, but boy do I like the old me a lot better now. Perhaps that's just me over glamorizing the old me and the life I used to have because things are much worse now and so back then seems so amazing to me in comparison to now even if back then I really wasn't all that happy or fulfilled either. But that's just how I feel.
I'm a walking destruction zone... So - I've given up cringing - I just fucking embrace it 😊
Lol, hardly. I did some spectacularly stupid things along the way. I marvel and facepalm while cringing. 🤦🏽‍♀️
turningthekeys · 31-35, F
@bijouxbroussard lol me too.
