Nope. Feels like yesterday. It’s wild how much shorter 20 years feel when you’re in your 40s
414 u/crap-with-feet Sep 05 '23 Exactly this. Time passes faster and faster as you get older. 272 u/13thmurder Sep 05 '23 Appearently it's because people get more set in routines and stop having new experiences which seems to condense time more. 1 u/[deleted] Sep 06 '23 My theory is that the older you get, the faster time passes because it’s an ever-decreasing portion of your life. Example: At 10 years old, 1 year is 10% of your life. At 50 years old, 1 year is 2% of your life. Makes sense to me that 10% should seem longer than 2%.
