quite shy but with a naughty streak ;-) much the same as now lol

Hi David, Yes it's much nicer being an adult but I still get misunderstood, still get very passionate about things & say what I think needs saying but when meeting new people inside I am just as shy as ever. I developed a way of covering when I first got a job in a pub at the age of 25. I pretended I was on stage giving a performance & as I have got older I still do that but at the same time I try to think of the other people & forget me. That way I cope with the terror inside.

painfully shy and completely lacking in confidence and self esteem

Small, slim, very lively and happy.....

I was a good gal. Quiet and shy - school reports always said 'She has yet to blossom forth!'

Pretty hideous if I'm honest. Could change the mood in a room with one look and, despite appearances, was certainly no Sandra Dee! Daisy

hi hun, I was very innocent - was actually sweet 16 and never been kissed! was never allowed to go anywhere or do anything, never met boys as I went to all girls school. was a bit of a swot really I suppose. rebelled big-time later and certainly made up for it in my last 2 teen years!! I was very insecure, hated my glasses, my funny hair, my big nose, my small chest etc etc and felt I had to get attention in other ways. hmmmm not much changes !!! Maz. XX

loved bay city rollers david essex ect!! spent most of my time with my mate horses summer days riding bareback accross the fields had a boyfreind with a yammaha trial bike bright yellow he respected me !! great Bloke considering that was early teens later got a bit more emotional coulf go on 4 hours but wont bore u all!!

Aloner dispite having brothers and sisters ,very insecure ~loved being with my Grandparents who made me feel wanted and safe. R.B.

Horrible, hitch hiked when told not to climbed out of windows skived off school went to London came home at 1am to find my dad at the station not very pleased how mum a dad put up with me i dont know

I wouldn't have thought you were shy now Viv - you'll say what you think needs saying won't you:) Much nicer being an adult ain't it? Sue I can easily believe you got away with lots! You probably still could I reckon;)

David, why don't you believe me?? I seriously was a naughty girl, thought I could get away with anything as I had a nice Daddy who spoilt me!! I will write my memoirs and then you'll see... Sue

Glad I'm not the only one that hated school. Thought hard about this & I think just three words sum up my teenage years. Shy, intense & misunderstood. Haven't changed much lol Vivienne xx

Sue!! I was thinking nooooooooooooo pmsl. I bet you were very like you are now:) That's sad Debby but just cos yr mum might have been wondering what the hell was happening to you it doesn't mean she wouldn't have been proud of you.

shy lol

Damn right Dan - if my schooldays had been the best days of my life I'd have slit my throat lol

My poor mum must have been so disappointed with me My dad died when I was 10 Mum really proud of me as I was only 1 of 5 from my junior school to go on to Grammar school From 13 went downhill due to my own stupidity of preferring to be the clown of the class rather than study Single mum 6 weeks before my 18th birthday to a waste of space Wish she was around now so I could make it all up to her as she loved me no matter what I did. Also often wonder how I would have turned out if dad had been around :( Debby

Oh David, Suave , sophisticated, just as I am now.... Seriously, always trying to push the boundaries a bit further, I must have been a nightmare for my parents. In the village where we lived I was known as....... got you going there for a minute,lol! the spoilt brat. Ha Ha Sue

OMG Joy no wonder we get on ;;; your poor parents as well;; Babs

I don't envy my life, yeah I'd say pre 17. Glad they're finished. Whoever said they are the best years of your life must have been some ignorant smackhead living in a bubble.
