Don't steal that porn mag. You don't have £500, you're not the bill payer, they don't have £500 and you don't even know where Guyana or São Tomé are!! It's not worth it!!

Even if the recorded story does tell you it wants you to fuck it senseless!!

Stop caring what others thought of you, as they were not around for long.

Stand up for yourself more, you might have gotten more out of life.

Study harder in school, you had the brains.

Don't buy that air pistol, you will regret it for a lifetime.

Stick to your cycling, you were good at it.

I would tell me, who my friends are now and that they are still around for me.

Believe you are attractive (especially pre kids) and don't settle for second best because you were grateful for attention, get to know your dad better as you never know how long you've got, go to uni at 18 not 28 and take up all those law offers, save more, and don't spend so much time angsting about what other people think because it will hold you back.

Don't follow that fool to college, go somewhere else.

Follow your own passions and don't let anyone dull your light.

Men will always be a head fuck so stay out of that game for a while

But my younger self was a head strong bitch so I would probably ignore myself

*throws spanner in cosmic works*

The laws of physics allow for time travel but the amount of energy needed if prohibitive (more than is contained in our Solar System)...

However, assuming such a machine was created it is not possible to travel backwards in time to a point before the time machine was built.

Sorry.

Should have spent more years as a teenager doing stuff and worrying less?

This. Plus be open about who you are, I spent 30+ years hating myself for being a CD, in mortal fear of being found out until I finally told my friends and they all shrugged and said "so?"

So many things. I'm really happy with my life right now but I could have been here so much earlier if I'd just made some different calls:

Late twenties - Know when to let go, and when not to settle. Don't stick with your girlfriend and marry her despite her not being what you want just because she's got a good heart. In doing so you will break it and shatter her life in ways you can't even understand. Leave her before it gets too serious but stick by her as a friend, because she's one of the very best you will ever have. Do not go to South Shields in August 2014. A nightmare awaits you there which will permanently alter you as a man and will blight the next 2 years of your life.

Early twenties - go to university earlier - Yes you need to go out to work at 16 but you dont need to wait till 26. Because if you do, while you will get a good degree you will have no true understanding of the student experience and just feel old.

Late teens - get in the gym, and stick at it. It's not impossible, you just haven't stuck at it long enough, if you can lose 7+ stone in your late twenties it would be so much easier to lose 3-4 in your teens.

Mid teens - Give up on that crush, it's never going to happen, she's a stuck up cow and won't end up going anywhere near as far as she thinks she will. You will eclipse her by age 30. On the other hand, Beth isn't teasing you, she really likes you, and you should jump on that shit because she's actually really cool.

Early teens - You are NOT inferior, you are not a leper or somehow wrong. You are a big fish in a small pond. Neither let it define you and make you shrink, nor let it allow you to become lazy.

Pre-10 - Do not take their offer to advance a year. They have your best interests at heart and think they are doing the right thing, and yes you are more than capable academically. But it will isolate you from your peer group, make you a target and set up a cycle of violence that you won't get out of for a decade. Avoid.

Not meeting

I'd only go back to October 2011 & tell the ex to move out then rather than wait a it longer (took me another 4 miserable months to prove I was right & he was cheating).

Oh & tell Frank how I really felt about him sooner & not dismiss his sore throat as tonsillitis

go travelling at 18, have some fun and enjoy yourself, career can wait.

And most definitely do not get involved with and marry that man. What are you thinking it was never going to work. You are not worthless and do not need to settle for second best.

You are not dirty and a slag for enjoying sex, it's ok , it's fun, enjoy it.
