How did you find out Santa wasn't real ?

WIZE

My sister told me to go downstairs to catch my mam putting the presents under the tree because she had an arguement with her .

He sees you when you're posting. He knows when you're awake. He knows if you've been bad or good so turn off the high def porn.

When I woke up one Christmas night and heard him sipping tea in the kitchen after laying out all the pressies. Except the "him" was my older brother.

I was in 3rd class and one of my friends told me that she had found all her santa presents in her house before christmas. I went home and confronted my mum and it all came out about santa, the tooth fairy and the easter bunny

Cupcake_Crisis

I saw my dad bringing down all the presents from the attic

Going by your location you might want to tell the pope who you met at the Barbecue

No, that's when the easter bunny has a BBQ

If you think the Easter bunny or Santa are fake then they obviously don't like you and you don't get invited to their parties

I was aged 7, it was the 27th December

Me: "This Gameboy's rubbish"
Mom: "Don't say that Tom, it cost a lot of money"
Me: "Well you didn't buy it, Santa made it!!"
Mom: "HE'S NOT REALLLLLLLL
Me: /crying

bleg

i thought about it

Cunny-Funt

I thought about it logically one day (helped that it was summer and miles away from that 'magical' Christmas time) and realised how messed up the concept was and started thinking about the implications of there being such a magical being that did all that stuff.

It all started to seem really fecked up so I just bluntly asked my dad about it then and he told me the truth.

I was 28.



hehe nah I was 9 years old. I remember cause I've a little sister and keeping up the act meant I could still get presents each Christmas from "Santa" on top of the ones from my parents. Muhahahhahaa.

If only more people thought about religion logically one day. Although I can't help but wonder if those at the top are a bit like me when I was 9, keeping up the act to reap the rewards. hmmmm....

Aw, that's nasty!

I was 6. Older cousin was trying to make me cry:

-Cousin: You know Santa's not real!
-Me: Will I still get presents?
--Idiot drops the ball right here--
-Cousin: Uh, yeah, from your parents.
-Me: Ok then. (Toddle off to play)

That wasnt a present in his pocket

sky88

i found my presents figured it out from there

MissIT

My best friend found her presents so her mam told her the truth, then she told me .

I let them think i still believed for another 4 years. That way i got presents off my mam, presents off my dad and presents off santa.. im an evil genius.

Agent J

I cant remember what age but probably about 7/8.

Couldnt quite work out why santa insisting on stopping at both my mothers and my dads house seperately...

robinph

It was never suggested that he was real.

midlandsmissus

My older brother told me when I was 5! the boll*x

stovelid

My Mum went and ratted to me. I was actually vacillating before that and would have probably got another year out of it as well.

Sharpshooter

I didn't exactly find my presents, one Christmas eve I found the wrapping paper that my presents miraculously appeared in the next day.

I never told my parents as it was obvious they got such pleasure out of wrapping them and waiting for my reaction.

It wasn't the same after that though.

So true.

I can't remember how I found out...I think I just figured it out.

When I was in third or fourth class, I was insistant he was real because there was no way my parents could afford all the presents.
I think that was around this time, or after that, that I found the receipt for one of my presents, so I told my friend, who told his brother who told his mother who told my mother who told me I was being nosy, and that Santa was real. And that the receipt was for presents bought for one of my Dad's friend. How gullible I was

christina_x

i was about 11 and we were watchin home vids and there was a part in one where my dad and bro were tipsy enough but i couldnt figure out when it was or what they were doing, there was just an awful lot of giggling. next thing i see them carrying in my computer and bike and stuff that santa had brought the previous Christmas, and placing them near the tree. was sickened:p

How'd that work?

I just realised that is it impossible for a man do what he's meant to do, about 9 or 10.

Even now my parents still say Santas coming haha.

Joey the lips

Santa's not real :eek:

Next you will be telling me there is no easter bunny:rolleyes:

Ha, I did that as well, my parents are really soft and couldn't bear to tell me the truth, so while I figured it out naturally when I was around 9, they thought I still believed it when I was around 13

Extra pressies FTW

citizen_p

i was about 6......found "santas present"
never believed since

Parents bought presents and stuck them under the tree, which I'm guessing is the same as happened for everyone else?

Yes - and then said they were from Santa.
But you implied they didn't.
So, how'd that work?

Was never said that the presents were from santa, they were always from whoever it was that had gone down the shops and bought them.

Dudess

Quite late - girl in my class told me when I was 10. But then I was in denial for a few months ("of course Santa doesn't come to her - she doesn't believe in him") but by that Christmas I underwent a conversion - to not believe in Santa was "cool" and grown-up so I was quite happy to be filled in on the truth.
