Did you miss out on being a teenager, considering you started modeling at 14? I never fit in like a typical kid. My sister was captain of the drill squad, but the cheerleader jock thing was never for me. Instead, I took photos and developed my own film. I loved modeling because I loved the photography aspect.
Did you encounter lots of slimy dudes? I run into slimy dudes pretty much anywhere, not just in the modeling world.
