Adults keep sayin dat high skool is the best time of your life and that ill miss it wen i get older. that scares me, because i dont care for high school, i get sad there cause i got no friends and i have to leave home every morning. What is there to look forward to later in life, if high skool is the best time of your life im afraid of the future

I think it's better being an adult, but then I'm still a teen.

I think that it's better, being an adult. I've graduated from High School, 15 years ago. I'm glad that I'm not in High School, now. I don't miss it, at all.

It is far better being an adult, but the 10 years of adult from teen:adult is a (*&(&%^%#E^

Me too!!
High school was a living hell for me...but then again, I am still a teenager now, just not at high school anymore. I don't think adult hood will be any easier in my opinion. Then again, I will have to wait and see for myself.

Life keeps getting better. I HATED my middle school and high school years, and I was recently invited to attend my HS reunion. I thought, "why would I go back to see the people who made me miserable?"

I can tell u that life doesn't even begin until after graduation. But, stick in there and graduate. Life is hardest on those without HS diplomas.

I didn't have real friends in school, and never dated or went to any of the social things. But once I started working, I found a lot of nice, interesting people. Now, I tend to be a loner, so it wasn't like I, personally, had this huge transformation, but there isn't the "social hierarchy" that you find in HS. So. you're someone who is just trying to make it like everyone else.

I'm now married (YES, I even found someone who REALLY loves me just the way I am!) and we have a child. I NEVER, NEVER saw this in my future. I always assumed I'd end up alone. So, FYI...HS does suck, and life DOES get better.

As a teen, I'd say adult.

But once I'm an adult I'll say teen.

=_=;;;

For me, and I think for most aspies and geeks, being an adult is way better.

Being an adult has been a LOT better for me. My teenage years were a nightmare. High school was the worst time of my life. The only thing I miss about it is all the musical ensembles I was in.

No one in this thread is saying teen. Truly, being an adult is better :)

Ahahhahahahahaa! :lmao:

The best time of my life was NOT high school. I wish that part of my life never occurred. It is much better after high school. Much much MUCH better.
