Have your interests changed......

I think almost my interests have changed.
Except for movies.

I used to like to travel now I can't stand it.
I used to like to go to the movies now I don't.
I used to golf, bowl, racquetball etc.... now I don't.
I used to like to go out to bars and such and now would rather just stay home.

I had a pool table in my basement for years. I lost interest and seldom play anymore

I lost interest to hang out with other kids
Used to read alot,not anymore
I lost interest to live in a city

One thing I've noticed, I'm not much of a consumer anymore. There's so much stuff out there that I don't need or don't care about. I'm sure it's the stage of life I'm in, but it does seem weird sometimes.

My taste in women has improved. Wiser.

And my taste in women started off pretty darn good with which to begin.

Sandman3- your idea of a "dream vacation" changed like mine did! Actually my idea of a dream environment changed. I went to college in a city and I thought it was SO exciting, worked in cities too. But later on I lived out in the country and I could not stand the thought of city life anymore.

Sure, there's a lot more to do, more stores, plays, movie theaters, etc., but I prefer small town life (boring as it is!)

My taste in food changed also. When I was a kid my mom used to yell at me for picking onions and tomatoes out of my food at the dinner table. Now I cook with tomatoes all the time. I like onions too.

I used to drink coffee by the gallon! But I seem to have lost my taste for it. A friend of mine turned me on to peppermint tea. I never thought I'd be a tea drinker!

Used to love candy and all sorts of sweet stuff. But I seem to have lost my sweet tooth. On Christmas Eve I helped out with the Christmas Eve pageant at church. The pastor, Father Andrew, gave all of us helpers a box of chocolate covered cherries. I still have mine unopened.

Everyone's interests are bound to change as we get older. We aren't the same people we were when we were toddlers, although at 62, I do love sitting in the dirt in my flower beds and digging. I will also probably graduate from protective pads to out right diapers in the next few years!

As far as interests go, I'm no longer a teenager, so I no longer think like one. I'm no longer in my 20's, so I have sort of lost the wanderlust I had then. I also no longer have the need to get ahead in the workforce. I'm retired now. All of that is behind me.
I'm no longer in my 30's when I was worrying about the mortgage and all of the bills and the expenses of raising a kid.
I no longer even think the way I did in my 40's and 50's.
As we grow older, we are always learning new things as life around us changes. It's no surprise that we change too.

I loved traveling, but the phones have totally killed any chance of cultural exchange, conversation, and people are becoming pretty empty all over the world.
I used to love playing basketball, but now at 35, I've had too many injuries.
I absolutely HATE driving, and though I have a car, I sometimes pay an acquaintance $10 for a quick trip to the grocery, etc.
I used to love going to basketball games, but now I just prefer to watch at home.
