If you could send a letter to yourself aged 15, what would you write in it? (no stock and lotto numbers

Letter - Greetings to a 15 Year Old
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFJ8EFzywjw

>Dear you,
>Who’s reading this letter
>Where are you and what are you doing now?

>For me who’s 15 years old
>There are seeds of worries I can’t tell anyone

>If it’s a letter addressed to my future self,
>Surely I can confide truly to myself

>Now, it seems that I’m about to be defeated and cry
>For someone who’s seemingly about to disappear
>Whose words should I believe in?
>This one-and-only heart has been broken so many times
>In the midst of this pain, I live the present

>Dear you,
>Thank you
>I have something to tell the 15-year-old you

>If you continue asking what and where you should be going
>You’ll be able to see the answer

>The rough seas of youth may be tough
>But row your boat of dreams on
>Towards the shores of tomorrow

I was already playing Visual Novels and eroges by then, so all is already lost. I was even on 4chan.

I'd tell myself that in one year, /jp/ will be created and your social life will disappear. It's too late to stop it.

>> No.9687259

Dear me of 15 years,
I know this is a very awful period of your life,
If it can be of any consolation, I can tell you that this is the worst you'll ever feel, at least until the point I am in now.
I won't tell you to cheer up, because... well that's pretty stupid.

I know about all the many things that are worrying you, and maybe you're wondering if I can tell you whether your worries about the future are justified or not.
Well... for the most part... they are... but once you're inside it it's not as bad as you may think...
At the very least don't worry about your studies, you'll finish high school without having to repeat a year or anything, you'll just hate every single day of it... and you'll keep dreaming about your high school days for years to come, usually about you not being prepared for an exam or an interrogation...

Your university days will suck for a different reason. You'll have even less friends than you have now. They'll be the most lonely years of your life. You'll fall in love so much it'll destroy your mind, you'll literally become crazy for her, but you'll just make a fool of yourself. In the end she'll tell you that she's already taken, but you'll still suffer hell for the whole next year.

After that you'll become a NEET, you don't even know what that means yet, basically you'll just spend your days in front of a PC all day. It'll still be better than everything you'll have experienced until then, trust me.
At least don't worry about getting a job, your parents won't make a fuss about it, and they've got a lot of savings, it's fine.

You're probably thinking you want to kill yourself now, but I know you don't have the balls to actually try it, so it's all right.

Farewell, until you become me.

Holy fuck, you're one hell of a massive faggot. I've only had like 5 friends in my entire fucking life and I never complained about it. I feel even better when I'm alone because I'd rather be "lonely :(" than have to deal with neurotypical retards

Learn to draw better.
Learn Japanese.

Buy Makai Kingdom.
Stop acting like [pic related] and at least reject girls instead of letting them fantasize about raping you or whatever it is they do at night.

The things I'd say to my 15 year-old self are things said self already knew, just couldn't be bothered to do. I'd tell him to program. I wanted to program back then, too, I just never did, not even now.

So lazy.

>> No.9687341

Dear Self,
Hey. I don't remember you much, even though it's only been five years. Your memory problems don't happen for another couple years I think, but it's no big deal. Not remembering stuff is a lot more relaxing than you'd think.
I think you realized you're bi at this point, so lemme just say that you should let yourself move away from the romantic notions you're always on about. By this time I'm a pretty "transgressive" person. Mainly just don't be afraid to fuck tradition in the ass and find your own interests. Maybe if I'd worked on that earlier I'd have a better station in life.
Oh, by the way. JT is lieing to you, and has been for years. You're "internet friends" so it's not -really- a big deal. Everything he told you about himself is a lie, but his personality probably wasn't fake. Guy was too much of a narcissist to fake that. But he's an asshole, just do what I did and generally don't listen to him or follow his advice.
Take some goddamn meds. Like for depression. Maybe that will get rid of those memory problems and you'll grow to be a totally different person than me. Wouldn't that be neat? Here's hoping it doesn't just leave you full of regret.
Oh, and, don't sweat high school. A GED is a fine replacement; what job you get is really about who you know and experience over any diplomas.
Be you later.

Dear me,

Stop trying so hard. You might not realize it but you're overworking yourself.
Don't take high school so seriously. You'll do just fine.
You have learning disabilities. See someone about it before you ruin yourself like I did.

You're also gay. I thought it might help to know.

Sincerely,
Yourself

Look up Touhou, it's cool. It'll only be another year before future you got into it, but it's a lot better than all the stupid shit you like atm.

Dear me at age 15,
Stop being such a stuck-up faggot that hates everything and start learning more foreign languages. Don't let Latin slip away, and be sure to definitely get started on Japanese and maybe also some other languages like Chinese (Mandarin and Cantonese), Russian, Spanish, French, German, and Korean. Also, get started on ASL and also JSL when you get the hang of Japanese. You'll thank me later.
Yours truely,
Me of the future

You know, I don't really have much advice to give.

By the time I was 15 most of the damage was done, and nothing save for the flow of time would heal it.

There is some advice I could give, but rather than being "do this" it's more like "if you want to do it, do it like this" walls of text.

If there's a single thing I could say...

Maybe: try to think of others as people instead of just characters for you to interact with, and stop living your life without considering anyone's point of view but your own?

But I don't think that little fat piece of shit that was me at 15 would heed any advice anyway.
