Is it Me or Them?

Question

I've began to distance myself from many of my friends that we used to chill out together. I just feel like the things that we used to do together, no longer seem exciting and interesting anymore. I find it rather pointless. People say that I am just mature for my age, but is it really just me? or Can this situation justified by simply regarded as maturity?

Am I too serious to think that our time is running out, and we better get ourselves on the right track in building out our future through work, earning money and investing, vs. taking the time easy, and waiting for things to fall onto our laps?

I don't want to be stubborn if my view on life will lead me to regret. But at the same time, I don't want to follow whatever excuses to just be 'lazy' and waiting for things to happen.

Answer 1

I've found that my group of friends slowly changes over time as my interests change. I feel this is normal and natural.

We are friends because we have mutual interests Once those are gone the friendship is no longer worthwhile and we no longer expend energy on them.

Answer 2

Probably a bit of both. You could call it maturity because you no longer find the silly things your friends do interesting anymore. Eventually, everything is the same - you don't change, they don't change, and familiarity can be boring. I find it hard to find things fresh and "exciting" all the time, when you've done it a thousand times before. But that doesn't mean you can't enjoy it. Relax and have some fun.

Answer 3

Oh, I completely understand you. I have more or less the same problem. You're on the right track girl. We all evolve, and sometimes, because of our different 'evolution' we part with our friends. I think it's normal. Just try to find some friends that suit you now. I'm on that quest.
