Is it just me, or is time going by faster?

what the hell bonsaik?
are you like the escapist official phychologist or something?

i mean really

People ask questions on these forums, so I treat them as if they actually want real answers to those questions. Is that so unusual? I guess it must be...

It was a comment on how all the posts of yours of seen sound like something a trained psych would say.

Just so you know, I'm not a trained psychologist. I'm a little older than the average Escapist but I have no qualifications in anything relevant to psychology other than the "school of life"...

 

[Bernzz]

I feel the same way.

But I think as years go by our perception of time speeds up so every year seems to go by faster.

This. This is how I think.

OT: Honestly, Time seems to be passing at the normal rate, Although when you look [/I]BACK[/I] time seems to have passed very fast, Because you tend to forget how much effort it was to get up in the morning.

You made me lol.

Underneath where I live there's this really old guy who plays the radio a lot and is really annoying. The basement is a scary place.

 

[Craftybonds]

you're just getting older; it happens to everyone.

 

[Triforceformer]

Holy crap it's already 2010...sweet.

It feels like time has been steadily speeding up all through my twenties. I often forget that I'm almost at my quarter-century, and I have very little to show for it. There are also times when I feel like something was forever ago, but it was really only a few months, like my trip to France at the end of June; I'm always having to remind myself that, yes, it was this passed Summer, not two Summers ago.

Sometimes, there will be a day that can't end fast enough, but on the grand scale... where has the time gone?

 

[manaman]

Lately I have been feeling that time is going by a little fast, and for some reason this saddens me, I feel like I havent made something of myself or done any thing in my entire life.

Does anyone els feel like that.

Time speeding up yeah, happens as you get old.

Not having made something of myself, no. I am pretty happy with the direction my life as taken, except how badly many of my relationships have gone. But I still have plenty of time to get that sorted out.

 

[Tharwen]

Well, for me it generally depends on how long I spend asleep each night, thus how long my days are, which means that holidays go really quickly, which is annoying.

Unusual yes, bad no. We certainly need a psychologist around here, considering how crazy the average Escapist is.

What about me? D: Im in college training for my Pych doctorate

it seems to be going faster...

 

[Spiner909]

Time is relative. It's just perception. So, technically, it is faster.

 

[Muffinthraka]

Yep, it's because that as we get older each hour (or segment of time) represents a smaller percentage of our total lives.
In other words; to a baby who is one day old a week represents 7 times the length of their life thus far. Whilst to a 20 year old it represents 1/7300 of their life!

 

[Capachinola]

Just fly over the international date line like, 6, maybe 7 times. That should fix it, right?

 

[rt052192]

time flies when having fun!

I am 24 and I have wasted my life and I have nothing to do and less time to do it in and all I want is to be loved.
