It feels strange to say, but it feels like I "stopped" getting older/worldly wise/moving forward in 2016-2017. I just don't chase the latest hype trends much, and I don't chase the latest tech either. I don't care about being "hip" much in fashion or appearance. I take my time getting to the newest entertainment (with the exception of theatrical movies) and resist getting new social media. My smartphone is practically an enhanced Youtube machine. I only replace it with a new phone if I HAVE to. Ditto for computers.
Would love to hear if this "time stopped for me at ____ year" thing has happened to anyone else. If it was a temporary thing, would love to hear about that too. For example, 2018 and 2019 were among the worst years of my entire life, I was STUCK in place and so I think I "artificially" tried to black out those years in my mind, hence going back to the happier times of 2016-17 in my mind. Do you feel left behind, and have you felt that way for years?
