I most certainly did... *feels embarrassed*

So cringe worthy.

In elementary school I had a huge group of friends and I was ''the leader''. I'd boss them around and tell them who they could and couldn't hang with. They were always apologizing to me because I'd lash out at them over something stupid. All the new girls would try to befriend me and I was so mean towards them ๐Ÿ˜ข

I was voted class president. It was me vs this Leo guy that I did not like at all. I would be angry at my friends for hanging with him. I was definitely a problem child in school which resulted to me being expelled in 4th grade. They said I was a bad influence on the other students lol. What ultimately got me kicked out was because my teacher went through my diary and saw that I wrote how I wanted to strangle my principle lol (she took my candy away from me at lunch, like, wth).

I was so competitive. Everyday at recess, we'd play this game called four square and I was team captain lol. We took that game so seriously.

I was so self absorbed (I've calmed down over the years lol) and such a jealous person. I think that's why I didn't want my girlfriends hanging with the Leo guy. I think I may have had a crush on him but I'm quiet sure I didn't. But that's not even the half. I was nothing but a spoiled brat.

I was a depressed child. My Sun in the 8th House and South Node in the 8th House destroyed my childhood. I was obsessed with thoughts of death, Hell, the after-life, dreams of burning in Hell and never telling anyone about it. I was haunted!

My Geminilicious experience didn't start only until about middle school, when the seriousness kind of went away and I accepted life for what it was.
๐Ÿ˜ข That must have been horrible. I'm glad that you're doing better ๐Ÿ™‚

Painfully shy and quiet. My mother says I was a very obedient child. A natural loner. Momma's girl. Straight A's, always did my chores without my mother asking. Very old spirit at a young age. Never asked for money growing up but I remember at 16 going to the movies so I thought but came home with my first job as the new popcorn girl. ๐Ÿ™‚
Awww, what's your sun sign?

I was quiet in class and around new people...but around my friends and family I was outgoing. For the general public I was seen as shy and quiet, but relatively friendly. I never cried in front of everyone. I kept to myself because I'm naturally more introverted. I had my aries hyper moments, but I always knew when to turn it on and off I guess
Me after my reality check....

Lol, that cool. So are you a mathematician? ๐Ÿ™‚ I was such a nerd. Lol. I always had crushes but the boys didn't know. I wasn't considered one of the beautiful ones until after I turned 25 and went to my first reunion and was shocked at the response.

I was 100% Aries as a child I was bossy and everyone loved me. Very upbeat and friendly I was so competitive about tether ball when I was in 1st through 3rd grade. I use to always play it lmao. Also I was in gymnastics use to go to meets ect. Some where towards the end of 5th or 6th grade I started to become very sheltered and depressed. I swapped from aries to cancer 100% . All I did was sit in my room and play video games, I went from popular social butterfly to weird hermit with no friends. I lost all of my physical attributes and still kinda sad over it. I just recently started working out and I'm trying to get in shape. Kinda over being this shy hermit lol.
''I swapped from aries to cancer 100% ''

I feel you. Good luck with getting yourself back together.

@livictori Oh wow. Not allowed to have friends? That's crazy. And I think I'm strict.
It makes me an awkward and introverted adult. But I have a strong independent spirit and I'm very comfortable with my individuality

Good for you being comfortable in your individuality. That's what is missing. Everyone follows behind someone else to a point that it was a created into a successful business aka Twitter.

That's regarding environmental problems? Very impressive. Your parents must be proud. Funny how a person can be as a child and totally different as an adult.

idk, cap.
Severe daydreamer, hard on myself, a bit gloomy to others...people always asked me what was wrong...an overachiever one minute, and total slacker the next, very creative and loved making things. Fascinated with rocks and minerals, and by tornados. Wanted microscope and telescope every christmas. Thought I was the "chosen one" at 5yrs old lol...started feeling close to GOD around 5 too. Started to feel like a bit of an outcast at 5/6. Prideful and stubborn, got whipped with a thorned switch and wiped the tears away two seconds later so my mom didnt see my tears. When I was real young my mom said Id look at people and say they were going to pass away, and they would within days.
Was worried about death, getting visions...always realizing life can be taken at any moment , and it still worried.

I was aware of how people used manipulation at a young age and sometimes i could be very manipulative.I was exposed to a lot that i shouldn't have been exposed to - for example when my mum gave up getting me to bed, i stayed up alone watching movies that had sex, violence etc in it. I didn't understand it and it scared me. I felt quite isolated actually. In terms of how i behaved, there would be moments i would be sensitive and others when i was extremely selfish to the point i harmed other people physically/emotionally out of frustration. I wanted to feel involved with the people around me but at the same time, i wanted to feel free on my own. As a child, i liked to figure out things on my own but i was impatient and angry with myself when i didn't grasp something straight away. Taught myself how to ride a bike at 4 because i used to watch my mum teach other children and as a teen, i liked to teach myself how to work out equations - my maths teacher didn't know how to make me do what he wanted to teach, so he made a deal that he would let me sit on my own and set me individual tasks.

Not sure if any of that seems specifically scorpio.
Do you mind if I ask you a question?

Overly shy, nervous, too sensitive .... psychic, knowing a lot for my age, very loving, affectionate


A few years before my mother passed on, she asked me what happened to that shy girl, i didn't want to say that i had escaped the overprotection of her mothering, but instead said *i grew up mother*

Still sensitive (nature of the work), psychic, loving and affectionate, but no longer shy


๐Ÿ˜›
When you say psychic, what exactly does that mean?

You just reminded me of my biggest crush in middle school! She was a Aries, very sentimental girl however.
I think she tried to talk to me but I was scared of girls hahahaha
Ayyyyy, haha. It's ok. I was scared to talk to boys too. Shy people always are missing out *pouts*
Yeah but now apparently my personality switched to ENFJ and all I seem to do is make people love or hate me by my eccentric ways. No more middle ground for me lol

Do you think you perfectly fit your sign as a child?


Yes. I was fucked up lol

I still am fucked up, but to a much lesser degree now.
You should tell me about the f'd up things you did. Just curious.
I was always angry, always rebelling just for the sake of it. I threw tantrums, stole things from classmates, broke things, got into fights (broke a classmate's arm over a book when I was 8). I was extremely bad tempered and depressed most of the time - I always had to be right. Being dragged to the principal's office became a normal thing for me. Also being that way made me a target for bullies - no one would believe me if they did anything to me because I was a troublemaker anyway (all this was before the age of 13). When I went to high school I internalised everything and stopped acting out. Became an A+ student, followed rules, did what I was asked to do. But I was still angry and depressed, plus puberty didn't help.

However, everything changed for me when a close friend died.

Wow. I've got nothing on you. Sorry about your friend though.
