It was 7 in the evening. My younger bother and I were in bed. I was 6, he was 3.
My parents had guests for dinner and my brother and I were playing in bed.
My father stormed up the stairs, shouting that we were being too noisy. He grabbed me, threw me against the wall and went back downstairs.

My brothers death in car crash when I was six

Asking and asking for a Harry Potter book set, then finally getting one and rereading them three times in 2 weeks.
When I was 9, I had been begging and begging my mum and dad to get me a dog. They finally got me one when I was ten. My reaction: 🤔😱😶😐🤑🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Hey Pandas, What Was Something That Shaped Your Childhood?
Okay so, when i was younger, my dad would yell at my brothers a lot, and sometimes my mom too. And I guess that just made me not to get yelled at and made me scared whenever someone would yell.
For example: one time I was in school (7th grade) a teacher asked me where I was going in a really loud and mad voice. I thought it was my dad for a second and I started crying and panicking.
I’ve started recovering since then, and I’m slowly starting to stand up for myself more, but yelling definitely shaped me as a child… I had lots of panic attacks when people yelled too… I’m having less of them, fortunately.
Anyways, thats my story I guess.
Hey Pandas, What Was Something That Shaped Your Childhood?
In the late 1950s, I was the first child, grandchild, niece, etc. The world revolved around me and life was grand! Then, two months before I turned 2yo, I was given a baby sister. No one had asked if I wanted one. She was just suddenly there. My replacement. Obviously. • ● • Everyone I loved constantly told me that, as The Big Sister, I "knew better." They all believed that I had this weird power. • ● • But I didn't, and I was terrified they'd discover that, in reality, I DIDN'T know better! I didn't have a freakin' clue! It only got worse as three more siblings appeared over the years. • ● • With each milestone, if I made any kind of mistake, I was reminded that I knew better.
You're a big kindergartener now, you know better than that! You're 13yo now, You Know Better! • ● • Since I'd always known better, I didn't dare ask for instructions or guidance. For anything. Not even as the new mom of a newborn that cried continuously. If I did, they'd realize that I was a fake all along! (This was way before post-partum depression was recognized as a reality. The internet and its wealth of information did not exist.) • ● • While it's getting easier, it's still hard to ask for any kind of input from someone. The fear of being found out and ridiculed still rears its ugly head, even tho I long ago accepted that, unfortunately, I am NOT magic. • ● •

CG5 and JTmusic. My world would be a lot sadder without them. Also dnf. It makes me happy.
If they compliment your physical appearance like your eyes or body, rather than something you chose like your makeup, outfit, ect. Then they're probably hitting on you. Speaking as someone who's both flirted and been flirted with.
Also, if someone DOES compliment something you chose, tell them where you got it. If they seem awkward or uninterested, they were hitting on you. If it was only a compliment then they'll be interested. Sometimes it's both though, so this isn't fool proof.

Girls who are flirting will laugh a lot. We also find a way to touch. Making eye contact and smiling at you is also another good one.

When the girl who has a crush on you says “I can play guitar” when you say you like girls who play guitar, then she has a crush on you. I’m not good at flirting at all and honestly neither is my girlfriend but this is a true story that proves how oblivious I am.

I wouldn't consider myself good but I'll say this.
Just care and show affection to someone and you'll be good to go

If you're in a group of friends (new or old), find a natural opportunity to hang back. Someone who's interested in you will notice and take the opportunity to talk to you in private. Now this isn't full proof but it'll at least give you the opportunity to feel for any chemistry between you.
