Let me ask you a question:
Can you name something that was once important to you, but lost importance as you got older?

Drinking, going out on a Saturday night, money
Yep. This.
Going out and hanging with friends at the pub is def on my list. I simply have zero interest these days.
I think its a nice to do once in a while, but its not a countdown to the weekend and then whoop whoop its Saturday
Other people’s opinions of me. Growing up, I felt crushed at the slightest negative comment. I wouldn’t say I’m completely over it, but it only just registers in my mind nowadays.
I’m the same. I try to focus on valuing the right people’s opinions not everyone’s opinion.
Exactly. That’s the healthy way to be.
Oh, there are a bunch of things, but to name one, almost anything that requires standing in line behind more than six people.
“The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.” – Will Rogers
True words!
I will wait for a table at a great restaurant or maybe at an amusement park. Other than that I avoid lines at all costs. lol
Yes, cookies and Cap’n Crunch.
I guess that means you loved sugar when you were younger! lol
I will neither confirm nor deny these allegations 😂
lol
Sports, in general. With the exception of my college alma mater and the Cubs. I still care about both, and I’m what I’d consider a die-hard fan. But I’ve lost most interest in NFL, NBA, PGA. Not sure why, but having kids, a farm, a full-time job, etc keeps my mind on other things. 😃
I’m the same. I am now a casual sports fan. I keep up with scores and standings but I’m not upset if I miss a game because I have to go to Target with the wife.
Yep. Wait a sec? Have they mind tricked us?!?! 🤔
I think so . Lol.
Dammit. 😏
Being in the ‘right’ places and socializing with the ‘in’ crowd. Lol. Can’t believe that was an actual thing on my weekly to do list.
There are a lot of people who live their whole lives doing this. Glad you grew out of the habit. 🙂
Me too 😄
I’m with sonofabeach 96. I still know what’s going on in sports, generally speaking, but I no longer follow them like I used to for multiple reasons.
I was once a diehard fan of sports, but not now. My life has grown into something completely new and different. I don’t miss sports at all.
Definitely Night Clubs, at one time I was in one 6 nights a week. I can’t think of anything worse now. As for sports I’m still there, but it was and always will be Athletics, but that could be because I’m still participating. Apart from that Mars Bars 😜
I could not imagine going to a nightclub now. When I was young I wouldn’t leave my flat until 9:30 pm! Now I’m in bed asleep by 8:30. lol How things have changed. 🙂
Being right.
When I was young, I was extremely argumentative. I always wanted to be right.
Now, I understand that sometimes I am wrong.
You win best answer of the day! I have a nephew who is argumentative and it really gets old after a while. I hope he grows out of it.
I’m sure he will learn it too. 😊 thanks!
hopefully
The need to be perfect. Now it’s Meh…
Perfect it all things or just certain things?
Perfect in all ways.
That must have created so much stress
Yep.
Having stuff. I used to go out and shop for things I didn’t need.
The way of the modern world. We surround ourselves we useless things and most people do so on credit cards which compounds the problem!
Very true. My husband and I ran up a huge credit card debt several years ago. We managed to pay it back through hard work, sweat, and tears. Now, we only have one credit card and haven’t used it in more than a year.
