Were you once obsessed or highly focused on something and later that changed and now you find it funny?

[melanieeeB]

I was so unsure how to put this into a question haha but I hope you all get it

So I was from my teens on really obsessed with having a well trained stomach and visible abs.
I trained so hard for it, plus I wouldn't go out without doing some sit ups first. That's how obsessed I was with this shit.

I stopped 2,5 years ago with working out massively, I'm still fit but I just don't look like it and gained weight.
Today I really realized that I have grown a stomach and I just had to laugh, cause I look so much better now but I was always scared of this happening and now I just find my past me so stupid lol

Has this, or something similar, ever happened to you too?

I used to be obsess with my weight to the point where I was very underweight…. then when I started being more social, hanging out with people & getting involved with guys, I decided I would rather be healthy & enjoy life. I knew I would never be fat & that I didn’t need to worry about it so much. I gained back the weight that I needed, & then I got pregnant and I was living a completely different life. I wasn’t thinking about my weight. When I had my little girl, I’d made peace with the fact that I may never have a flat stomach again. Again, I wasn’t worried about it. I was health conscious, but my priorities had changed. Four months after, I was back to my “normal” weight. My body still wasn’t the same but I was so much happier and more confident in myself.
After a year, I did get my flat stomach back, but it was just through incorporating exercise. I hadn’t even been focusing on it.
Our bodies will always do what they’re supposed to, we just have to trust it.
There is no happiness in obsessing over anything.
Everything comes naturally when we let go of the need to control things.

Yeah basketball.

Going into my senior year it's kinda just one more year to get through, before it was i lived and breathed it.

Don't get me wrong after i graduate i still do pick up games but the obsession is over

I was obsessed with having a phone in grade 6 because almost everyone I knew my age and younger had one. My parents always told me they trust me and not the world but I always felt like they were lying and just didn't trust me. There isn't much of a difference between phones and other devices so I don't get where they're coming from. The only thing with phones is you can call people but who the hell am I going to call? A serial killer? Gosh. Well that obsession's over now but I'm still annoyed at their silly reasons.

Oh I can definitely relate to you on that! For me, it was being small and skinny. As I noticed how overweight people were treated and just the attention I got as a result of my weight. I then later realized in my adulthood, how finding confidence in simply how I look was unhealthy and fickle. So I started changing my focus to wanting to feel empowered and strong which is what resulted in me going on my workout journey and not caring how I bend down ( ya know how your stomach folds and causes ripples when you do and some see it as unattractive? Yeah, that used to make me super self conscious! But now Im like mann, fuck you im human love my rolls baby.), what I wear even on my menstrual days. I just feel so free now when it comes to my body. The only gaze I focus on is my own not the male gaze. 😥🥺

I was obsessed with Suga from BTS 4 years ago, the guy had such a nice voice but his face always sounds blurred to me now I just remembers he was kinda hot. I never understood a word of what he sang but his voice in their group's clips, when his tone changed from when he sang, gave me a sense of relief in heart.

He wasn't the best voice in the group but I did prefer his, although I don't find it silly but I changed my obsession target to Alec Benjamin's voice.

[Guy13]

There was this first girlfriend…I didn’t know I could get that freaky at 19…. I’m more like, “damn, did I really do that…that was like a bout of 🦇 💩 Crazy”. It’s funny now and compared to what other people do these days it’s rated G…funny now but at least I love hard 🤷🏻‍♂️

[yucel_eden]

I was obsessed with this Kurdistan thingy you know about as a teen. Find it funny and waste of time now.


Was obsessed with a girl in my teens till 22, find out it is laughable now.


Obsessed with money till a year ago, find it funny now

[NathanDavis]

would my OCD tendencies count for this... lol

[melanieeeB]

I'm gonna say yea haha

[NathanDavis]

I still put on my right shoe first... always, every single time and if I do not, I just won't feel right ever again, lol...

[Reesi]

I had like this guy for five years straight was completely obsessed with him to the point my friend use to be stalk him and do all my dirty work but now I look back like what was I thinking he not even all that in no way

[Pinay_ako]

I was obsessed with British boy bands in my teens 🤣. I had my walls covered with their faces and watch them on MTV like it’s the best thing that ever happened 🤣.

[himanshumask]

Yes that happens...
Because you are not prepared mentally to cop up to such problems at that certain point of time... but later we realise that was so silly
Like in childhood i use to think that who gets good grades will make more money... that time i use to get depressed if i got low marks... but later i realised money and marks doesn't go hand in hand

[Zolly99999]

I focused hard on building computers when windows 7 first come out.. I wanted to be the master of windows 7 and pc's... yep that lasted a long time. Lol does anyone even remember windows 7? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
