Young Adult Star

For a project in my psychology class about Erikson's Stages of Development. We had to write about our life in each stage and have an appropriate image. All anatomy is based off my own at that age, as well as how rats develop.

I said:
"This is my current stage of life. Age has never really affected my relationship with people, so my friends’ ages range from 14 to 74. I am involved with the local Unitarian Universalist Congregation, who are a people of deeds, not creeds: we care less about you believe is going on in the spiritual world, and more about what you do in the physical world. As long as you agree with our principles and science, we accept you. As a result, we are involved in many liberal causes, and pay our taxes since we are political. I participate in this community for this and its sense of family. I have retained some friends from primary school (one of whom was my first true friend), but due to our busy lives and my being an ambivert, I don’t see them much. I see my mate (I use mate because I date all sexes and genders) nearly every day due to his being 2 minutes away from me. I feel it is a healthy relationship, and enjoy our time together. We have similar humor and mentality. I still live with my parents, who are very much still in love, so they are still a big part of my life. They know I am not straight and no longer agree with their religion, and they, mostly, allow it. I definitely seek intimate and solid relationships, since any relationships lacking this I quickly disband or do not commit much effort to."
