I know EXACTLY what you’re talking about. I’m 13 and I’d do almost anything to be born in 1959 so I could be a kid in the 60s and a teen in the 70s.

I love the era I live in, but, I’d do anything to go back to the 30′s. I know that that was the Depression and, everything, but ththing’s seemed simpler. I melt into it all. It’s when everything really started to unravel and break loose. I could talk about it for hours. But, my point that you aren’t alone in thinking that you belong somewhere else in time, because this one is kind of just stealing from all the others.

Ah, I’m 14 also and I know I should have been a teenager in the 80s.

I’m near the same age.
I have the exact same feelings, the 60′s was my time.
I create my own now:)

I can definitely relate. I’m 19, and I too often feel this way.

By: Liz

Liz — Sun, 16 Jan 2011 14:20:11 +0000

So know the feeling, I was the exact same way when I was your age. But as time went on, different eras wound up inspiring me to a point of kind of mixing all together. You’ll find your niche. Don’t worry.

I am the same way! I was so meant to be born in like, the 19th century or something instead. (:

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.

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.

Your beautiful – role play the era you want with someone that gets you.

By: Laura

Laura — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 17:13:03 +0000

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).

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.

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

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

I feel the same way. I haven’t decided between Australia or America yet, but I need to escape.

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.

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…

By: abigail

that’s kind of hard to do if you don’t believe in god

By: abigail

abigail — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 21:09:16 +0000

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.

By: Monica

Monica — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 03:20:53 +0000

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 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.

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.

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!

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’m sixteen, but i wish i’d been 16 in the 60′s.

Drew,
unnecessary.

and personally, at the age of 18 id love the 70s or maybe the 20s.

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.
