What makes a middle a middle?

[Pup]

I'm curious if I'm a little or a middle and I have a hard time to find an age range that fits me. I was curious what would fit me the best, middle or little. I haven't thought of being a middle before. So this has opened some doors. I also have a hard time te get into little space, so I haven't got the chance yet to explore myself in that area. (What I like and what I do.)

So, what makes a middle a middle? 

 

Maybe that makes some things more clear for me.

I'm a middle, and for me that means I do teen stuff. I watch teen shows (like Shadowhunters, Riverdale) and I also still do things that I did in the 90s (clothes, for instance. Yay jean overalls!) but, there's no good or bad way to be a middle.

 

Another thing I think defines a middle from a little is middles don't regress as far. To me, they go back to 10-18, while a little goes younger.

 

Of course there's overlap. I don't care how old I am, diapers are awesome.

 

I've heard people say middles are more bratty, but for me it's the opposite. The younger I regress the more bratty I get - or rather, the more I just don't understand stuff. Like why can't I eat ice cream for breakfast again?

 

It's all subjective.

To me, a middle is more childlike and littles are more like toddlers or babies. Middles usually identify as 10 to 18 year olds and littles 1 to 9. BUT you can call yourself middle or little, there is no clear definition of the two.

Helpful reminder, you can search old posts asking the same questions as this one. Just type your question in the search and if it doesn't pop up you can make the post yourself.

Hi, glad you asked. I just did a search for the word middle on the home page and this recent post came up.

I have become a "search" smarty. There is so much info here on almost every topic you can imagine.

 

I love searching, I learn so much. Hugs

Thanks for the answers!

I guess I should have searched first.

I will do that next time before I post anything.

 

I'm searching for an age range, but maybe I shouldn't limit myself. (And try harder to get more in little space, but there are plenty of topics about that.)

I've been helping people for around 15 years and have been fortunate to even help littles find themselves. I would always suggest there is no rush in categorising your age to start. Just see what is natural as and when it happens.

 

I've known many people who say they're little but don't ever classify they're age. Instead they just see age regression and the ability to relinquish their adult responsibilities

I range between little and middle. I intentionally dont put a label on my age because i like the flexibility of feeling itty bitty but also sometimes having deeper conversations and more responsibilities. Some people seem to think they need an age label but i personally dont believe in that.

I'm also someone that doesn't really put a label on myself. To say that I don't believe in it would be a stretch bc I believe in just doing what you want haha. If having a set of standard rules or guidelines to dictate how your little side acts (because that's pretty much what having a little age is) is good for you, then do it! I would rather just go with the flow and respond to everything with my first instinct.

Thanks! I'll try to get more in little space, maybe that will help things a little bit! And I think that I am not going to set an age for myself. I am just going to be me. Adult or little, I will just be me and not a role I'm playing.
