I was raised to pretend.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I was always a 'let's pretend' kind of kid.
Pretend was a big part of my childhood.
I'm really good at pretending.
Of course as children, we all, in all cultures and societies, learn behavior from observation, imitation, and encouragement of various kinds. So by the suggestion made, we all 'pretend' most of the time.
I was raised on the Internet.
When I was a kid, I used to pretend to be Bond; I used to make up scenarios and irritate my sister and annoy my mother and father pretending to be someone else, so I kind of was already acting when I was a child. I just didn't really know it.
If you're gonna pretend to be something, then you have to at least live up to what it is.
As a kid, I spent an awful lot of time pretending I was somebody else. I think growing up in the 1980s wasn't very exciting so you kind of create this secret life of an alternate person. You pretend to be whatever you need to be that day, so you live in that dream world.
I had had enough pretend. I wanted to be in the real world.
To pretend, I actually do the thing: I have therefore only pretended to pretend.
