life is too short to spend worrying about what people think about you. they dont know your story so keep it real and just be yourself. Besides chances are they're worried about what you think of them.

kellyxxx agony auntIts not late at all, I'm 19, I think people start to learn about life at this age because you have gone through high school and realised that all of your problems were petty. Then you think, 'I've realised that my issues in high school weren't worth worrying about, there must be a million other things not to worry about now!' Thanks for the comments. Xx
