The full title of this category should be “Things I Wish I’d Known When I Was 18″, but that would probably be a little cumbersome for the hyper-links in this blog.

Can you think of anything you wish you’d known when you were 18? Or even a bit older, going into your 20s? Of course you can. We all can. To have a wise head on such young shoulders would have been a tremendous advantage . . .

Like most young men of that age, one of the foremost topics on my mind was girls. And when I think back to some of the occasions when I messed up with a girlfriend, and the way it happened, I still cringe in embarrassment. If only I had known then what I know now.

I don’t want to sound like someone who thinks they know it all, because I don’t. Not by a long way. But I’m pretty sure I know a damn sight more now than I knew then. [And so you should, you've been around long enough. - Annon.]

Perhaps the main thing I wish I’d known back then is this. Girls aren’t generally interested in being made to feel that their boyfriend is the most fantastic boy in the world. They’re interested in being made to feel that they are the most fantastic girl in the world.

There must be thousands of other things, but that’s one that came off the top of my head. Let’s hear from anyone with a contribution to make to this question – What do you wish you’d known when you were 18? Or even 20?
