When did you stop believing in Santa?

[Comic Sans 401]

Probably when I was really young.

[Lisa 5,552]

Can't remember exactly, but I caught on to the fact that he wasn't real pretty early.

[Flying Vantas 106]

I never started un-believing.

Never did not feel my feelings.

[EverEverOn 346]

I was 11 when I realized that there's no possible way that Santa could exist. I was never really bothered by it, either.

[Kivil 1,721]

When my sister told me he wasn't real so like 7

[Yarishia 144]

If I remember I was 8 or 9 when my friend told me, that Santa isn't real.

[Mr F 1,521]

I never belived in him.

We don't celebrate santa, as a nisse (santa) a troll like mythological species.

They are around all year, they just sit around the barn all day. Why would they care about christmas?

Well Grýla is real, RIGHT?

[GeekySonic 1,150]

I never believed in Santa. As far back as I can remember (around 4 years old), we all selected presents for each other. One parent would take me Christmas shopping, the other would take my brother. We wrote exactly who the gift was from on the tag.

[ASGARDIANBRONY 128]

I never believed in santa because my parents didn't lie to me.

[ARagY 1,152]

I never believed in Santa.

[Courageous Thunder Dash 7,809]

When I was around 8-9, the year after I got my Playstation 2. 

[MasterSpark95 430]

I believed until last year, actually.

I never really believed in Santa at all, and if I did, it was usually just for the presents.

 

I did find an interesting video about the science behind Santa, if he existed:

(Note: Skip to 3:04 for the science part.)

[Tapfire 92]

I worked it out when I was like 8. Then I worked out that the lyrics of his song are creepy at 11, and didn't want to believe in him.

 

"He sees you when you're sleeping, he knows when you're awake" that's the NSA, not a bieng of pure joy and christmas cheer.

[EmeraldSkies 93]

When I was eight, I distinctly remember discussing with a little boy in my class how we would catch Santa that Christmas. The conversation progressed, and I guess at some point we realized how impossible it was for a single old fat man to visit millions of houses in one night.

 

Sneaky me decided to keep up the act until I was 11, so my parents would still get me a Santa present.

[SquipyCheetah 448]

I don't think I ever believed in Santa. It was kinda the same with God and such. It sounded stupid but everyone seemed to believe it so I just went along with it.

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 40,281]

I think I was 9 or so when the realization came along. I randomly talked to a couple of people in elementary school, which I had basically no friends there, they asked me if I still believed in Santa, I said basically yes, and they sorta ridiculed me for it. So at that point, I quickly started deconstructing it all and forgot about the whole concept. 

[PoisonClaw 8,153]

I think I was... 9? 10 maybe? I can't even remember how I stopped believing in Santa, though I think my parents just told us one year. 

[~Chaos~ 3,966]

When I was a kid at some point, can't remember the exact age.

[ILikeNightmares 163]

Since, like, always. I am not silly. Caught my mother planting gifts under the tree when I was 5. Wasn't sad at all though.

[Celtore 2,769]

Grade 5. I admittingly wasn't one of the most logical kids, hell, I couldn't even beat the great deku tree level in ocarina of time (the first dungeon.) I didn't have any reason to question it, so I simply didn't. The internet eventually revealed the truth to me, most likely Wikipedia.

[Nightfall Gloam 18,236]

I don't think I ever actually believed in Santa, IIRC.

[Plume 922]

I don't think anyone necessarily told me, it just sort of... Faded over time I guess, so I don't really know an exact age.

[Meson Bolt 2,647]

I stopped believing in Santa after I stopped getting Christmas presents. Or was it the other way around? 

[Kronos the Revenant 1,971]

As messed up as this may sound, I stopped believing in Santa when I was really young. 7 or 8, i believe. It was when they told me taht Santa goes down the chimney to drop off presents and looking at a picture of Santa. I started overthinking and thought well, no way Santa can go down our chimney. On top of that, I already knew that my parents give us the gifts for Christmas because we always buy them and I sometimes cheat on Christmas and peek when my mom's wrapping up gifts. XD
