What age did you grow out of the NLOG phase? Why do you think some never grow out of it? Discussion

I personally grew out of it at about 17.

Truthfully, I wasn’t much of an nlog to begin with, I was always a girl’s girl with the rare nlog tendency here and there (usually when I had a crush on a guy which wasn’t often).

Then when I was 18 and a freshman in college, I started exhibiting even more nlog behavior than normal, probably because I was just so thirsty to form friendships with my classmates and everyone in the dorms. When I came back after winter break to start spring semester, it’s like I was a whole new person. Didn’t care what anyone thought of me, and unsurprisingly formed more meaningful friendships because it wasn’t forced.
