When I was about 12 I found a dead kitten on the side of the road and was so sad for the kitten and their family that I biked home and got out my special box (a shoe box decorated with patterned paper) wrapped the poor, dead kitty in a bit of clean cloth and left it in the box on the front porch of the house i found the body by. Then I went home knowing I had done a good deed and that family would feel better about their dead kitty because it was in a special box and I thought no more about it.
As an adult I randomly remembered my good deed... yeah, that family probably didn't even have a kitten. They probably came home, saw a box decorated by a 5th grader, opened it up and thought "What the HELL!!??"
To that family, whomever you are, my sincere apologies. It wasn't a morbid prank, I promise.

I was likely almost kidnapped and raped. When I was 4-5, I was at a department store with my mother, and she had wandered off, probably chasing my brother. I was painfully shy and scared anyway, but when two adult men approached me, I knew it wasn't okay. They started talking to me, all friendly, asking me my name, and what I was doing there. I was petrified of being rude, so I answered, but didn't feel comfortable, and ducked away as quickly as I could to try to find my mom. I then felt guilty because "they were probably just being friendly," and I was afraid they'd find me and tell my mom I was rude, and I'd get in trouble. I actually felt guilty and ashamed about this for decades until I realized that no adult men have any reason to approach a little child, and like any good predators, I'm sure they could tell that I was easy to manipulate, and I probably was two short steps away from "Want to come see the puppy we have in our car?" or something. I never told anyone about this.

Oh wow. That really sucks I'm sorry that you experienced that. I don't want to overshadow your story, but I could've been raped too. My ex boyfriend didn't understand the word 'no', and if he hadn't been grounded, I'm sure I would've been. I kind of understand fear behind this.

I used to take snacks like ziplock bags of cookies and hide them in our VHS collection. A week would go by and we'd have no snacks in the house at all. My mom would find me eating them and watching a movie. She'd ask "Where did you get those??" My answer was always the same "Had 'em."

There is no problem with that, and I'm proud of you! I still haven't managed to kiss a girl, cause I'm too shy.

At some point in elementary school, I was minding my own business and walking back home after a long day and this random truck pulls up to the nearest stop sign and waits for a really long time as I walk closer.(because that was the way home) Reminder: The road was CLEAR AS DAY and something clicked in my brain that said "If you get ANY closer you are going to get kidnapped" You wanna know what I did to this sketchy truck that was probably going to kidnap me? I held up both of my hands at my chest and.... flipped the driver the bird with both of my hands.. YUP! The funniest thing was IT ACTUALLY WORKED! It got the dude to drive away and leave me be 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I was born on a bomb!
A little clarification: I was born in a hospital in the Netherlands, in 1963. The hospital was probably built somewhere in the 1950’s. Many years later a new hospital was built in another location in the city, and the old hospital was demolished. One day there was a small article in the local newspaper that during the demolishing they found an unexploded WW2 bomb right under where the maternity ward had been…
According to that news article the bomb could still have gone off all the time.
Not really a secret, but if some website asks for a ‘secret security question’, I’m often tempted to use this.

I used to strip completely naked, crawl inside my pillowcases, and force myself out pretending I was a baby being born. Several times. I was about six.
I would also wake up in the middle of the night, strip everything off my bed, and meticulously make it up again, then just go back to sleep.
I was and am a weird kid.

My youngest son had an unusual habit, he was maybe 4 or 5 at the time. He always wanted to wear socks to bed, so of course I'd put some on him. When I went to wake him the next morning (or even from a nap), he would be wearing them on his hands! He never remembered taking them off his feet and placing them on his hands, but he did that for a couple years...lol

So.. I kinda liked barbies but wasn't really into them but I really wanted to do glow-ups on them (New hair, different faces, stuff like that) and so I would take the heads off of them to redo their hair but I could never get the old hair out so there would just be random doll heads around my room😅

This kid was following me around a playground (we were both in preschool) and I told him if he doesn't stop, I would throw his hat over the fence and out onto the street. He called my bluff and I followed through with it. After that I felt really bad and swore to myself that I wouldn't tell my parents until I was sixty. But anyways that was my darkest secret for several years.

In grade school, I was about 7 or 8 yrs. old, a boy sat behind me and was constantly pulling my braids. One day he did it once too often and I picked up a book, turned around and hit him over the head, HARD, with it!

I was at a pretty big summer camp, and we were playing capture the flag.
I was pretty emotional when I was younger, still am, sometimes. I would throw tantrums at the tineist thing and get really, really, mad, espeichally if someone cheated in a game or something was unfair.
so anyway, we were playing capture the flag, and I was the jail guard. there were like, 4 people in jail, and someone from the other team tried to free them, but I tagged him before he got to the jail, but he insisted that I didn't tag him in time, and he and his buddies just walked away and then mocked me. I think something happened earleir in the game, because I was MAD. like, seeing red spots in my vision mad.
I tried to talk to the camp councelers, but I was screaming at this point so I don't think they could understand me. this made me so, so, so, mad that I ran up to one of the kids who had freed the people from jail and scrathced him. (I have really long nails, by the way.)
he was reasonably upset, and the camp councelor was called. since it was a big summer camp, she didn't know my name and so asked me for it. (obiously to email my parents.)
I was really sad and scared the rest of the day, because I thought that my parents would be really mad at me, but when they picked me up, they weren't mad. they never talked about it. I don't think they even got the email.
I kept quiet but was scared for years that they would dig up that email and find out.

Of all the weird s**t I did as a kid... I'll skip that and go ahead with saying my sister's chopping off Barbies' hair habit. We later read serial killers and psychopaths did this as children and I never let her live that one down (she's perfectly normal btw)

Okay, So as a kid I loved to climb things. Alot. One day, after hockey practice, my tennis ball went over the wall and got stuck under the scoreboard. I didn't want to lose the ball so I f******g ran up the wall and grabbed the top of it. (I was a really tall kid and the wall was only like 10 feet up.) When I ran over and got the tennis ball back I threw it down and jumped off the top of the wall. (I don't know what I was thinking because I prob could have never walked again) But I landed fine and was grounded for a week.

When I was about 8 I was taking a class at the YMCA (wasn't a swimming class, but can't remember what type of class it was). Anyway we were standing in line and I got bored so I decided to do a pirouette (to bad I wasn't taking a dance class it's where I truly belonged) I had my arms out as I turned I accidentally hit the girl behind me in the face. She started crying and bleeding from the mouth (found out later I had knocked one of her baby teeth loose) the instructor ran over and asked what happened some kids said I hit her, I denied it. I felt absolutely terrible but I was scared I'd get in trouble. I never told my parents, I'm not sure I've ever told anyone that story.

( check replies at the end)Similar thing happened to me in 2nd grade. I was in line, and as a kid NOBODY. NOBODY. CUT IN FRONT OF RHYLEIGH. I whould literally get sooooo angery. So, we are in the lunch line, the day before spring break. And this kid, let’s call him billy, walked in front of me. I said hey that’s not your spot! He was like yuh huh, durrrr! And I get in front of HIM. well he started squirming trying the best his little second grade legs could do. I tried to block him, and my arm started stinging and ALLLLL the kids gasped. There was blood on the floor, and he was screaming. Long stiry shirt, I elbowed his mouth, and he bit his lip open. Now, at the nurses office, mrs.....uhh...let’s call her mrs.jerk bc why not any way mrs jerk took an ice pack, SLAPPED my arm with it! And then, we did an Easter egg hunt (remember it was the day before spring break) and geuss what!?!?!? I HAD TO GIVE BILLY MY EGGS! While the class watched the movie “hop” I sat in another room, crying. I an so angry to this day.

Well, I used to eat my fingertips off…
And eat chapstick…
And I lost five pebbles in my ear… to this day they haven’t come out of my ear
But the main story I want to tell is that in Kindergarten, this kid said he was an alien and he could make me an alien too. Like an idiot I beloved him. Cut to, he convinced me to curl up in a ball and close my eyes super tight until I started seeing colors. In hindsight he probably was making fun of me as I did it… but still.

I would steal my older sister's and mom's Harlequin romance novels (it was the early 90's so they were super popular). They figured it out, but never actually said anything - they just disappeared overnight. I think we were all too embarrassed to actually verbalize it 🤣
This is probably pretty common and not that shocking, but there you have it. I learned a lot from those books, and I wasn't even 10.
