You guys are making me want a wife I AM SIXTEEN AND NOT INTO ROMANCE I CANNOT HAVE A WIFE
Of course not.You guys are making me want a wife I AM SIXTEEN AND NOT INTO ROMANCE I CANNOT HAVE A WIFE
You start as friends.
One step at a timeNeed me a homie to geek out with fr
Moved this to GTD as it seemed like the more appropriate forum for it.
Man, I wish 16 again. No worries about money, because my mom buys everything and the only chores I have to do is putting the dishes in the dishwasher and putting the dishes on the table againThis makes me feel sooo young which is weird because at the moment i feel so old when i keep getting told i’m basically an adult and am applying to uni in under a yearso actually thanks for that
Agreed but also sometimes my silly is literally being a teenage girl making silly comments comments about characters (in a perceived shallow way when it’s just meant to be fun) i like and idk if there are places like that for star trek where there are for other shows (and if you know any places/forums for that please tell me)
Also kinda scared if i say opinions and they end up being controversial and adults end up arguing with me or something (Example, I thought the hating Wesley Crusher thing was a joke because he’s just a kid and he’s TRYING despite hide mistakes and he has crushing (pun definitely intended) expectations and is simultaneously patronised and then I found out a lot of people do actually hate him and they got mad at me which i don’t want)

You are young and have time enough
So real, but also my countries school system sucks and i’ve taken an extra subject so i’m awake doing work from 5am half of the days and stay in my school library till closing at 6pm and have to do schoolwork like five hours a day on the weekend
but that’s a me problem being 16 is awesome man especially for christmas
Hi Annie !
Welcome aboard, and I hope you stick around. Trek needs new fans and you should be encouraged. A lot of us are getting on a bit, as you can probably expect from fans of a franchise that began in the 1960's !
And yes, indeed, many of us are old and ugly !
I can't really advise you how to meet other younger fans beyond chatting on here, but you could ask in your local comic shop if there are any fan groups in the area.
You could always start one !

Thank you so much for the lovely welcome, i was slightly dubious of the website but I really like it !
I don’t mind that a lot of the fans are older than me it’s more i don’t wanna make anyone uncomfortable-
I think you'll find most of us have long ago accepted that we're not in the first flush of youth !Thank you so much for the lovely welcome, i was slightly dubious of the website but I really like it !

A couple of pointers -
1) The Treklit section could be interesting to you, and we're fortunate enough to get some of the authors involved in discussions there. They're nice and won't bite, but please take care not to give any story ideas in the discussions - due to potential legal problems if someone says "Hey, you should do a story about Data turning into a microwave oven !" and the author was actually planning to, they then can't in case you sue for stealing your idea.
2) Theres a place on here called The Neutral Zone which you can't access yet as you're a newbie. It's less strictly moderated and can get a bit more contentious. I tell you this as if you do eventually go there, you'll sometimes find a bunch of people arguing and being less polite. There is a thread there "The Place Where It's Always Brit O'Clock" where some of us in the UK gather to moan about politics, life and the weather. There's teachers, lecturers, police, clergy and all sorts posting there.We argue, but we're a kind of family.
Anyhow, welcome again - explore and get involved.
This is so helpful thank youuu! <3 I will definitely be checking out the Brit thread when I can and the Treklit one.I think you'll find most of us have long ago accepted that we're not in the first flush of youth !

I like that this thread has turned into people on this website being my mini guides
At our age I suppose we're predisposed to taking parental roles...This is so helpful thank youuu! <3 I will definitely be checking out the Brit thread when I can and the Treklit one.

Very much appreciated lol
Speak for yourself! I'm not even old enough to...oh crap. [Does the math] ...I could have an adult child by now if I'd cared to. Glad I never did.
I love this energy
I hate to be the parent (have three children including a 16 year old son), be careful who you interact with and make sure if you decide to do something with someone you meet online, make sure someone you trust knows who and where you are meeting someone and make sure you meet publicly.
Welcome to the board, and have fun. It is a great group of people of varying ages and interests.
No don’t worry, I understand and despite me saying some personal stuff I am careful due to bad past experiences involving authorities and stuff, but I don’t think I would ever meet someone irl at this point in time (for the next couple years).
Thank you for the warning much appreciated
@Annie McCoy So what drew you in? Which show or movie?
