Over the last year or so i've become more adverturous & trying to live life to the fullest. It's great fun & everything, BUT it seems to be having an adverse effect with other people.
For example, I went sky-diving in the summer. It's pretty daring & adventurous non?
But, whenever i mention it to other people they simply don't care. They even act like they think less of me for doing it aswell. By the look on peoples faces when i tell them this you'd think i just told them i had sex with a goat. The reaction i get is rediculous.
It's not like i showcase my sky dive or anything. I only bring it up if the conversation is going that way & they ask me about what i did in summer or whats the most exciting thing i've done or something. Even then they act like i'm just showing off when i say it!
Are they just imtimidated or jelious that i've done something they want to do but will never get round to?
Other things are happening too. My old friends (The one's i went to school with.. I'm in uni now) seem to be 'growing away' from me. I've really become more outgoing & doing crazy spontatious things. But my friends don't have the same spirit as me anymore. I hate to say it.. But the last time i was with the 'gang' i felt that they were boring, goodie goodies, &.. well.. not much fun.
I've heard that some of them actually think i'm too wild or outragious & don't like it when i'm with the group!
Just cause i don't play computer games as much as i used to (some of these guys still play them religiously) & i prefer going clubbing than going bowling, etc.
I can feel we're drifting apart, & i don't want that! But i feel the same way with the general public aswell (except my uni friends, who are living the action packed life with me).
But, it seems my new adventurous, risk taking lifestyle is alienating me from everyone else.
Why? What should i do? i don't want to change as i'm only young once & what to experience as much as i can in my prime years so i never have to look back in regret.
But is this the price you pay for living life at 5 times the average speed?
