is it me? Have I changed in 5 years? Am I aging? - GoFuckYourself.com

Fletch XXX · 12-04-2007, 01:59 PM

I dont have the desire to troll people, I have no desire to instigate religious arguments on message boards. I am no longer interested in any kind of debate online.... I think only of my family and things that have to do in my life.

Is it me? Have I changed over the past 5 years?

I go months without looking at message forums (other than my own) - I havent been to GFY in months. I come back and it seems not much has changed. I see people making threads about the same shit they were doing 4 years ago - and I ask myself, how do these people retain that level of interest in nonsense?

I see people trolling the same people they were flaming years ago... still at it.

Is it me? Am i aging? Anyone else feel as if they have totally moved on?

JFK · 12-04-2007, 02:04 PM

perhaps the thrill is gone? Years ago this whole scene was something new and shall we say "wonderful", now its just the same old, same old ......

Martin · 12-04-2007, 02:05 PM

Yes Fletch it is the fact you're getting older...

Happens to all of us..

lazycash · 12-04-2007, 02:05 PM

Well since you are sober now I'm sure that plays a big part in it. Your past late night drunken high rambling used to fuel much of your trolling and arguments.

spooky181 · 12-04-2007, 02:05 PM

Same as anything you do for a while, the novelty will always wear off...

Fletch XXX · 12-04-2007, 02:11 PM

yes its true, i have been much much much much much more sober since the death of my grandmother two years ago,. When that happened I was living in Los Angeles, partying everyday and had done so for almost a decade, I didnt see my family for years, distanced myself etc..... it shook me up, i needed change, needed direction... without going into it, I just buried my grandfather this week. So I guess i am a bit conscious of my moves at this moment.

I am 31 and i feel like i wasted a lot of my time on earth basically just "getting fucked up drunk" - More than entire decade spent just partying hard nonstop. I am done.

My late night days are done. Now I enjoy laying next to my wife and thinking about the future, planning for the future, instead of living in the past and trying to obliterate myself daily with intoxicants.

Its weird to think about all the crap I went through in the past 5 years to get where I am, and then look back on myself, my behavior etc...

I am not the same person I was years ago, thats for sure.

My life and family mean more than the other crap that clouds our vision as we progress through life.

CDSmith · 12-04-2007, 02:29 PM

Yup I've definitely noticed you've changed a lot over the past several years.

As have others.

I do sometimes miss the old Fletch though, even if you don't. The old Fletch was pretty damn entertaining at times.

BradM · 12-04-2007, 02:34 PM

The mind also bores itself with repetition. You can only say and read the same thing so many times before it becomes drivel. Because there are no new ideas or topics here... we've literally seen it all.

corvette · 12-04-2007, 02:35 PM

fletch, you married cherrylula(sp?)?

L-Pink · 12-04-2007, 02:37 PM

Older, wiser, and maybe a little gayer.

yes, I married her before we left California to buy our house. We were together for like 9 years before getting married and felt with buying a house together etc, we should maybe go for it. So we did.

Wow, I have to admit that post shocked me to say the least. Honestly, you used to annoy me more than other poster in here, you always seemed so jaded, drunk and angry. I didn't know you were only 31, I had you pictured as a washed out alcoholic in his late forties who probably wasn't going to see 50.

I'm not sure how you arrived where you are now, but keep it up, the future looks bright if you can maintain that attitude and lifestyle.

Damian_Maxcash · 12-04-2007, 04:25 PM

We all change over time. I used to get really wound up on here, these days I see it as therapy.

If I have had a bad day I can come on here - I can rant and shout and nobody really cares.

I suppose it boils down to GFY used to wind me up, now I use it to wind down.

rip raster · 12-04-2007, 05:08 PM

I hear where your coming from man...I haven't had a drink in over a year haven't smoked in almost the same time. I can't remember the last time that I was at a club. It seemed that anytime we would go out I would see someone get stabbed or shot or at the very least be lying on the sidewalk bleeding and being attended to by paramedics.

It was just getting too much, I have only gone out a handful of times since and usually for someones b-day or some other special occasion. I would rather just stay in do a little work make some food maybe watch a movie.

I have outgrown that scene as it seems that you have as well Fletch, you just realized earlier than I did (I just turned 38). I look at it as kind of a learning experience and I wouldn't be who I am today if I had not gone through all that.

Anyways I wish you the best man, sobriety can be a high in it's self

Spunky · 12-04-2007, 05:14 PM

It gets tougher everyday but I still plug away.still hitting the clubs and picking up loose women..I just turned 46 and I know my days are numbered where I can't do that anymore..till then..fuck it

Dude, you are wiser now ..

I remember having same feelings about my childhood .. when I used to love buying and keeping little chickens, see fish swimming in my own little bowl aquarium, playing naughty, teasing friends and many other silly things. If you ask me now, I'd say that was just a waste.

When we grow, our priorities change.

How old are you anyways?
