I agree completely. I’m 15 and this generation is ABSOLUTE crap! Nobody knows what music or personality is any more! Check out my band http://www.myspace.com//helpdemolishbarbie Let’s change things and make the world the way we want it!
Your only 14. Period.
Guess what, life sucks! I’m sure the era your talking about is the one where men ruled, beat their wives if the dinner wasn’t done and the laundry wasn’t folded.
DREW, you are an IDIOT. Obviously you don’t understand this postsecret, and are some weirdo living with their mother at 40 years old, and not young enough to understand this.
wow I never thought I’d see mine up here! :O
I get what drew means, like the past is really oppressive to women and stuff, but the music, clothing, PEOPLE were just fabulous. I wish we still had that culture.
thats what I meant.
it’s the craftsmanship I miss
I had a beautiful singer sewing machine from the 50s that still worked perfectly, and the attention to detail was so much better than anything made today
and it was metal and wood, not cheap plastic!! lol
my nan gave it away to Jacob’s Well and I was devastated D:
we don’t make things beautiful anymore, I have a normal sewing machine but I still miss that work of art
Exactly! I was born 50 years too late. I relate to people over three times my age better than people my own age. I would give my wrinkle-free face and perky boobs for memories of the 60′s.
You were not born in the wrong era. There is life after death and you are here to live. Start living by allowing yourself to associate yourself as a kid and let the adults be grown up.
i never thought any1 else might feel like that too. i always think, i shouldnt be here now, i should’ve been alive during the victorian era. thankyou 4 helping me realise i’m not weird. i think it may be a past life coming through, but that still doesnt help me turn back time!
I wish everyday that I was able to nip back in time to the 20′s-50′s and just stay there for a bit. mingle among the crowds, listen to the music I love played on vinyl, see the old movies i love on screen and just revel in the time thats rightfully mine.
so what if theres the downside of men over women, i’d sure as hell deal with that then have to deal with amount of shit our worlds offering.
for now though, i’ll take imagination over real life any time.
Although I know how you feel, I wouldn’t want to actually live in another time. If I lived life in a different era, then I wouldn’t see the magic of that era. I’d take it for granted (much like I do with life now).
Also the health care wasn’t half as good as it is now.
I’m a 14 year old brit, and I want to be an American 40′s housewife. I love everything about the lifestyle, and it kills me that I’m stuck in this metal box of a country.
The only reason I wish I was born in a different era is so I could have seen Pink Floyd and other classic rock bands in their prime.
However, as much o a dick as Drew was life does suck… If you spend all your time wishing you were in a different time period you’re gonna let time pass you by and miss the amazing things that are going on in this current generation.
The main reason I’m glad I live in this generation is because as a former Marine and two time Iraq War vet I have nightmares and survivor guilt from Iraq. However, I would rather spend 5 years straight in Iraq than have to fight in Vietnam, WWI or WWII. Iraq sucked horribly but compared to some of the other conflicts I’m sure my tours were a cakewalk.
Надо радоваться что мы родились в это время т.к. раньше все было плохо,не было ни денег не еды.Были войны.А сейчас мы должны наслаждаться жизнью данной родителями.Виктория и з Беллорусии.
It is Necessary to rejoice that we were born in this time since earlier all were bad,was not nor money of meal.There were wars.But presently we must enjoy the life given parent.Victoria and z Bellorusii.
Do you not think people during the era you wish you were part of thought life sucked, just as people today do? If you lived in the era you would not notice the beauty and uniqueness because it would be what is normal.
Also time is passing you by, things change, but memories, photos, films etc stay. Looking back on a previous time is fun, maybe you may dream sometimes but things need to move on and always do. Holding on to something that is so distant is pointless, people need to enjoy life in the present moment (even if that includes admiration of another time).
wow. you should be releasing your anger in the same way the posters on here are – anonymously and not immediately directed at someone you don’t even know. And for the record, I’m 28 and couldnt agree with her sentiment more.
My best friend keeps sleeping around with older men.I secretly hope one day she'll catch something or get pregnant for being so stupid at 16 2 weeks ago
There is nothing wrong with our friendship; I dont have a crush on you and your gf doesnt bother me. Im stirring shit up bc Im bored. 2 weeks ago
He just broke up with his girl friend, I'm afraid I'll be a rebound. I'm in love. 2 weeks ago
I wasted 4 years wishing for you, you turned out to be a drug addict and a slacker. Why can't I stop loving you? 2 weeks ago
He just broke up with his girl friend, I'm afraid I'll be a rebound. I'm in love. 2 weeks ago
Im only 16 but I know how you feel
I agree completely. I’m 15 and this generation is ABSOLUTE crap! Nobody knows what music or personality is any more! Check out my band http://www.myspace.com//helpdemolishbarbie Let’s change things and make the world the way we want it!
yup, i totally get that
i know how you feel…
i was born in the wrong country
Your only 14. Period.
Guess what, life sucks! I’m sure the era your talking about is the one where men ruled, beat their wives if the dinner wasn’t done and the laundry wasn’t folded.
BTW. Your ugly, so who cares?
Dont be a dick drew
Umm. I think that was really rude.. I agree with Alice.. you don’t have to be a dick
DREW, you are an IDIOT. Obviously you don’t understand this postsecret, and are some weirdo living with their mother at 40 years old, and not young enough to understand this.
Drew has point. Life sucks.
Why would you be so mean?
I’m fourteen. And if anyone said that to me, I’d be beyond hurt.
All this hate and yet no one has pointed out the typo? Come on internet YOU’RE letting me down.
your an ass
I completly understand!!! I to feel out of place all the time!
Same age, same feelings…you’re not alone:)
NO ONE CARES ABOUT PEOPLE LIKE DREW.
everyoting was better back in the 50′s!
I think you are probably remembering a past life.
wow I never thought I’d see mine up here! :O
I get what drew means, like the past is really oppressive to women and stuff, but the music, clothing, PEOPLE were just fabulous. I wish we still had that culture.
thats what I meant.

Drew,
unnecessary.
and personally, at the age of 18 id love the 70s or maybe the 20s.
i know how you feel.
i’m sixteen, but i wish i’d been 16 in the 60′s.
Exactly! I was born 50 years too late. I relate to people over three times my age better than people my own age. I would give my wrinkle-free face and perky boobs for memories of the 60′s.
You were not born in the wrong era. There is life after death and you are here to live. Start living by allowing yourself to associate yourself as a kid and let the adults be grown up.
that’s kind of hard to do if you don’t believe in god
Omg i totallie get what you mean!! the 70′s would be prime time 4 me!!
i never thought any1 else might feel like that too. i always think, i shouldnt be here now, i should’ve been alive during the victorian era. thankyou 4 helping me realise i’m not weird. i think it may be a past life coming through, but that still doesnt help me turn back time!
oh, and i’m only 17. so it has nothing to do with age. we’re just special and have a strong clairvoyance
I’m a 15 year old guy and I feel the same way. I’d be awsome if I could just runaway to the 50′s, 60′s or 80′s
where are you from?
you can email me if you want to be penpals. sifictionrox@gmail.com I’m feeling a bit spontaneous from all these secrets.
I feel that way too. I wish I was a hippie at the Height-Ashbury scene.
I’m born in the wrong country, and when I have finished high school I’m packing my bags and leaving – probably for good.
I feel the same way. I haven’t decided between Australia or America yet, but I need to escape.
I wish everyday that I was able to nip back in time to the 20′s-50′s and just stay there for a bit. mingle among the crowds, listen to the music I love played on vinyl, see the old movies i love on screen and just revel in the time thats rightfully mine.
so what if theres the downside of men over women, i’d sure as hell deal with that then have to deal with amount of shit our worlds offering.
for now though, i’ll take imagination over real life any time.
i wish i was born 5 years earier..
but i’m used to being lonely now. =l
treasure good friends/people
I’m fourteen as well,
and I completely agree with you.
I know exactly how you feel.
i know how you feel.
After seeing PRIDE AND PREJUDICE
i wished i lived back then,
call me crazy.
but thats what i want.
=[
Although I know how you feel, I wouldn’t want to actually live in another time. If I lived life in a different era, then I wouldn’t see the magic of that era. I’d take it for granted (much like I do with life now).
Also the health care wasn’t half as good as it is now.
We only want what we can not have. We always will. Embrace the moment.
i agree 100%
I’m 18 and feel the same way.
I feel the exact same way! I’m 16 and I wish I was born in the 60s and could have gone to woodstock!
not to be a total brat but you should have been born in the 50′s, cuz no one goes to woodstock as a nine year old…
I wish I could’ve been able to enjoy the 90′s as a teenager and not just as a little kid
I’m 19 and totally understand. I shoulda been born in the 60s
me too. i’m 12 and i belong in the 80′s
I’m a 14 year old brit, and I want to be an American 40′s housewife. I love everything about the lifestyle, and it kills me that I’m stuck in this metal box of a country.
I feel the same way, and I thought I was the only one.
I’m 14 too, and no one i’ve ever talked to about this understands me
The only reason I wish I was born in a different era is so I could have seen Pink Floyd and other classic rock bands in their prime.
However, as much o a dick as Drew was life does suck… If you spend all your time wishing you were in a different time period you’re gonna let time pass you by and miss the amazing things that are going on in this current generation.

Her ugly? Oh, I thought yours.
Do you not think people during the era you wish you were part of thought life sucked, just as people today do? If you lived in the era you would not notice the beauty and uniqueness because it would be what is normal.
Also time is passing you by, things change, but memories, photos, films etc stay. Looking back on a previous time is fun, maybe you may dream sometimes but things need to move on and always do. Holding on to something that is so distant is pointless, people need to enjoy life in the present moment (even if that includes admiration of another time).
Your beautiful – role play the era you want with someone that gets you.
dress up and play the role at home
You an ass. She is beautiful.
wow. you should be releasing your anger in the same way the posters on here are – anonymously and not immediately directed at someone you don’t even know. And for the record, I’m 28 and couldnt agree with her sentiment more.
come on…really? people aren’t supposed to be mean here.
That wasn’t meant to sound harsh.
Obvious troll is obvious.
Protip: Insults sting much more if there’s at least a grain of truth to them. Calling this adorable girl ugly is just stupid.
Uh, I posted that as a reply to drew. I don’t know why it ended up down here.
