Author Topic: What's high-school like?  (Read 12752 times)

What sort of difference is there besides age? Don't you realize that some legal adults still can't make their way out of being a child? It's based on maturity. I don't remember becoming a legal adult making you automatically an adult at heart.
i'm not talking about personality at all. i already explained the difference but you're apparently handicapped.

it's the difference in situations, responsibilities and even opportunities that separate actual adults from kids like yourself (regardless of how hard you're "trying" lol). i literally can not get my head around how you think that trying to be an adult means you're actually an adult (or in a situation to make comparisons)

You may be talking about the responsibilities an adult holds, but I'm not. Last time I recall, paying bills and having more opportunities has hardly anything to do with the strength of a relationship. It's how you spend the time you've got and trying to be strong together which makes it an "adult" relationship. Honestly, what makes you think there's a single difference between mature relationships and mature relationships when you're a legal adult?

You can drive more places, do more things as an adult, but that hardly gives you an advantage in a relationship. Before you say that's not true, why don't you tell me some of the amazing "adult" things you've done that is even the slightest bit better than what I've done? Sitting there and trying to pull insults from your ass isn't going to do much to prove your point.

Trying to be an adult is the act of growing into an adult. Certain legal adults have not tried to grow up and still live with their parents in adulthood, among worse things. Being older doesn't make you superior, it just makes you arrogant if you look down on people if they're younger than you. My point about maturity is relevant to your argument. Please don't dismiss it.

what do you mean last you recall? you aren't recalling anything because you're not an adult and you've got no idea how it works lol. the pressures of being an adult do affect relationships, but that's not my point. my point is that you're not in an adult relationship, and yet you're trying to give someone who is in one advice on them

you can talk about recalling x, and making comparisons between x and y, but you're doing so out of your ass. you haven't experienced adult life; and it doesn't come down to how mature you think you are, or how hard to try to replicate being an adult.

you are a child. don't make comparisons between child life and adult life - that's naive.

Are you serious? What makes you think I haven't researched and taught myself about what I'm going to have to do once I turn eighteen? Hell, I've payed taxes before. Soon I'll be paying for car insurance as well. I've experienced the very edge of  "adult life" (and in case you misinterpret that, I mean I've experienced some of it) by pushing myself farther than someone my age would usually go. If you don't understand what I'm trying say, I'm indirectly saying that most people my age are just receiving from their parents (choice or not) the things that they could pay for themselves (excluding the basic necessities of food and such).

I've worked a job and payed for my own things, refusing for my parents to buy things for me because I desired to learn the adult world before I entered it. I have left the job I worked for six months to move on to a better one. I'll be applying to a supermarket being built near my house once it's finished rather than applying to one down the road. All of the motivation to get a job and work for a car was to be able to see my girlfriend. She motivated me to do everything past my limits and to work hard to be able to drive there and see her.

Today, I am finally able to take my driving test for my driver's license.

While what I've just said may sound completely off-topic, I'm giving you examples of how hard I've worked in the economic world to get to where I am today. Being under-aged doesn't mean you can't do anything. The fact that you believe that a child can't do what an adult can (other than the things you can do by being a legal adult) is absurd.

so you googled how to be an adult and now you think you're qualified to give life and relationship advice to actual adults? lol

think of being in my situation right now. if a 10 year old came up to you, and had been dating a girl for less than half the time you had, would you actually take relationship advice from them? do you think a 10 year old relationship is the same as the relationship you're having now? if they told you they've "researched and taught" themselves how to be your age, would you then take advice of them? what about when they say you've got a bad relationship compared to them?

that's really laughable

It's a loving hellhole and everyone in it should have thumbtacks hammered underneath their finger nails with jack hammers.  Also note that I hate everyone in my high school.

It's laughable that you're over-exaggerating my entire argument. No, I didn't google "how to be adult". I learned about economics, politics, and even had hands-on experience with working a job. I don't know why you're trying to twist my words but it's getting obnoxious.

Being THAT young obviously makes a difference. Most people that age are just beginning to learn how to have those kind of feelings. I'm talking about the difference between someone old enough to have feelings and someone who is old enough to legally do things. Your comparison is pretty silly.

I learned about economics, politics, and even had hands-on experience with working a job.
so you mean you googled economics, politics and learned what full time work is like through your part time job at mcdonalds?

no you're right, you're a qualified adult. my apologies sir

Stop saying I looked up everything on Google. lol

My knowledge came from months upon months of learning something new every day. Also, it doesn't matter what job you have. Every person has to pay the same taxes and work hard in a job, no matter how high or low the job might be. Your sarcasm is uncalled for. But hey, I'll tell you one thing I started on Google: programming. Not only have I spent the time since then learning about it on my own, I started taking a course for it in school — online school, by the way, which takes far more of an independent person to handle because of how easy it is to slack off. You assume that just because I'm a minor, it automatically makes me unable to do anything an adult could.

Honestly, you're making it sound much harder than it already is. Stop over-exaggerating everything. It isn't hard to live on your own if you're responsible and have a good sense of planning. Why do you think I've been working on things like this now when at my age, I should be running around being a teenager and not caring about anything but passing in school? It's almost as if you're trying to make me sound like some sort of wannabe when I'm actually doing things rather than wanting to do them. :o
