What worries you about becoming your future self?

[xSuperMario64x]

I live in constant fear of rejection, so I'm afraid that I'll spend so much of my life studying what I love (astrophysics) and then not get anywhere with it maybe because I'm not perceived as social/outgoing enough. Though in a way, I'm not worried because I don't believe physicists are very social creatures anyways. And I always have piano. Piano, I know for a fact, won't fail me.

I guess the other thing is, I don't know if I want to live alone or not. Like I really don't want to get married or anything, but I don't want to be a loner for the rest of my miserable life. Maybe I'll just find a nice boy to live with me

oh boy, there's a lot. i'm afraid i'll never find a nice, loving partner and will have to settle for an abusive relationship. i'm also nervous i'll never learn how to keep money. i just spent 98 on CARDS for gods sake. and for my sweet 16th all i want is games. im just so lonely being homeschooled with only my mum in the house and my guinea pig. loneliness scares me. this forum helps but it's not enough socialization for a teen girl, yknow?

I guess the worry that things will either stay the same or get worse. Plus, just taking on the weight of the next several decades of life. New fun things and adventures and loves, but also tragedies and traumas will likely be the price for those good things.

I'm worried about being poor, homeless or alone basically. Or bad heath too of course.

 

[moo_nieu]

bad health is a serious worry. I don't wanna be bedridden :/

I honestly constantly worry that I'm not living up to my full potential. But then I remind myself that successful people don't all make it in their 20's anyway and it makes me feel at least a bit better.
