I’ve realized recently that my friends are growing up around me. It makes me feel lonely. Would they forget about me? I want to run after them, but a part of me keeps me back. Is it wrong to stay a child? Is it wrong to want to stay a child? I know everybody still has that childhood inside them, but what about me? Wanting to have sleepovers and have pillow fights, wanting to laugh about boys, wanting to make childish jokes and laugh at them, are they all worthless? Do I have to throw them to grow up? Putting on makeup, going shopping for clothes, dating boys, dieting, are they what I have to do to grow up? I don’t like that. I want to be with my friends when I grow up, but I don’t want to do those things. I’m scared. I don’t want to be alone. I’m scared. Please tell me what to do.
