Ever since I moved back home from USA old friends have, naturally, popped up and it was fun the first few times but now I just don't have an urge to meet them. I am one of those that don't like "going back in time" but it also makes me feel bad because I am a truly nice and caring person. Not really sure what my question is other than: is this OK behavior from my side or should I be more pleasing? IP: Logged |

I'm similar. I think it's ok. I don't think you should have to feel bad for who you are. As long as you're not rude to them I think it's fine. You could explain that you've changed, life has changed, etc. Depending on the exact situation of course. IP: Logged |

I feel the same when i visit home and see people i haven't spoken to, seen or heard from in a while. I think as i haven't seen some people in a while, it became more apparent to me how much i have changed since i left home. Please don't quote might edit later IP: Logged |

Not "Going back in time" peopleis that a syndrome or something? Because I am exactly that, and I thought it was just me. I almost never go back in time or place. I really really loath going back to anything after i am done with it. I dont want to imagine going back to live in my home place and hang out with people from my old times, even thou everything is possible of course... IP: Logged |

I agree. I moved back to the city from a suburb and all of my childhood friends from the suburb had tried to reach out and hang but I either didn't respond or made an excuse. I didn't want to be mean but I'm a completely different person now with a whole new group of friends who I have a lot in common with. You couldn't pay me to hang with those people, we have nothing in common. I cut ties with my past. IP: Logged |

do you mean that you have to host people in your house coming from the US? not sure I understand.. in any case, the first person you need to please is yourself. only when you feel happy you can give something of yourself. otherwise you will feel drained. if you feel the need to go into the new country and explore more of it rather than keeping so much contact with your past, why not? it is your right to decide when you want to be with other people or even alone and when you want to connect with your old friends..
