The thing is, people are saying I've changed, alot. Over the past few months I've lost 3 friends - all for different reasons. And I'm always having arguments with my friends too. I'm worried that I will lose more. Is it just that I have grown up? A ex - friend said I have become more spiteful. If this is what growing up makes me, do I have to be this way? What can I do to stop myself changing into a bad person? x Reply to this Question Share |

It 'should' not be so surprising if your friends had changed along with you. Growing up, as I was just telling a friend earlier today, means to shed excess, filter out the unnecessary, build on your strengths. A child can grow up and still be playful, silly and experimental, no matter if s/he is 10, 30 or 100 years of age.
