I am 25 and almost every day I think about the past decade, about high school, about good times when I was 14-19. I'd give my soul to the devil to be a kid again.
Now everything is boring, nothing excites me anymore, although I can buy anything I want, I feel empty inside. I will never be 16 again and walk with a teenage girlfriend along the beach. I will never again play World of Warcraft for days, not caring about anything. I will never again have everything, all decisions, schools, friends, in front of me, not behind me.
yes. YES. me to a T unironically just spent 10 days of my life recreating my life in the Sims, down to the same highschool friends and college buildings. I wish things had gone differently.

Dude, I dont know. You grew up in worse social conditions than I did and I'm not kidding. 10 years ago people weren't so obsessed with shit like Instagram and you didnt find people to fuck via Tinder.
But the only thing that comes to my mind - enjoy every day. Every single one of them dude. Just squeeze them out because it's the only thing that you'll remember from being young. And if not then then when, when you're 30?

I don't know if It's nostalgia but I usually feel a ghost town sort of feeling for most things now. Where everything feels empty now where it once was lively and enjoyable or something along those lines. I really enjoy that feeling. Everything feels empty

>21 >only good memories ate from being a little kid >most have faded away
Video games, locations in real life, tv shows or any sort of media. If I return to things I used to watch, play or just go to in real life it feels empty. Especially if I actually remember it vividly from my past. It feels empty compared to whenever I originally played it, watched it or went there I guess. Considering how little I go out though mostly video games/media in general.

>tfw desperate to find evidence or anecdotes of 25 still counting as "youth" and hope people confuse me for looking 20 because I haven't done fuck all in a decade

I reenacted it twice. The first time was me failing all my courses, never leaving my room, and having my social needs down to 0, while being miserable in life (Sim would cry all the time, and have a shrink visit once in a while.) Then, I used a cheat to make the sim a teenager again I relived my life, successfully completing college, making friends with everyone, getting honors, becoming neighbors with my best friends, getting married, getting a dream job, etc.

I would give anything to wake up in 2002 and be 6 again or at least in 2006 and be in 3rd and 4th grade. now I'm 22 I wish this was all a bad dream and the things I've been through never happened. I'd do anything to go back, sell my soul i don't care
Tired of this glow in the dark meme even worse than the shrek cringe comp one. Tired of everything
Liam Sanders
Yep, I have so little attachment to my current life that I would go back to being 12 again in a heartbeat.
Noah Hill

I've got problems with nostalgia but my biggest one is with escapism.
I play too much video games, read/watch too much fantasy shit (especially isekai shit). I always get told about how I should get a job, a place of my own, a gf, etc... But even in my socialist shithole, it means working working something like 48 weeks for a month of paid vacation.
I am nostalgic, but not about the things. For example people in this thread reminisce various media things or activities they've done. I mostly think about the feelings and how the times look compared to now. I don't know if it makes sense.
I usually daze off in the current and then I'm also dazed off in the nostalgic memory of a specific event. If I remember a time I played with friends as a child, I am back there but thinking about the above mentioned things in an absent way.

Life sucks now and it sucked then too. It sucks less now, actually.
