I dont know why but i always feel like i want to have a younger friend that i can take care of and look after and i just think i am gonna be really good at it!

Ever since i was young I'd always stay at my relatives house and all my cousins would be happy to see me and play with me and i was the oldest cousin and it just made me feel happy that they looked up to me and that i was smth important to them . Like those kids wouldnt share their chips with anyone except me!

Unfortunately now i have grown up and.. i became SUPER shy to a point i just dont feel comfortable interacting with any children specially if there is any adults around NOT BECAUSE I AM A MAP OR ANYTHING but like just something inside me makes me feel like I'd look immature if i try to play with kids now that i am an adult. And honestly i kinda hate it because i see other adults playing with kids but i have to restrict my self so i can look more professional infront of relatives and such.

But anyway *sigh* i just really wish i had a younger sibling that i can look after and take care of or like a younger best friend i always think it would be cool JUST LIKE IN VIDEO GAMES TOO like pragmata where u have to take care of the young girl... i didnt play the game yet i dunno her name and uhmm in ace attorney u have to look after maya fey and pearls and i also find that sweet, like man i just wanna feel like a parent and responsible and i wanna raise a well behaved child its really a dream that i wish it comes true😔 sorry for all the rant

Does anyone else ever feel like that? Wether you are an adult that wants to take care of a child or you are a child who wants to have an older person that u also watch out for them??
