I feel that im starting to notice bitterness in some older people in my offline life, people that i actually encounter. Im not saying that this applies to all older people of course, but in people in their 40's, 50's and 60's, they seem cold, insensitive and as if jealous of younger people, maybe they see that we still have options, choices. Some of these people that appear bitter to me now, they were whiners, whingers, lecturers (as in doing your head in) type of lecturer (like gimme a break types) lol and i wonder if some of these older people have set themselves up for being that way earlier in their life. It's not like im a teen or something where the age is just too far apart, im 33 myself but i look at some of these people (some of them relatives) and wish they could see themselves and hear how they come across to people. I phoned an aunt today, first time i got a chance to talk to her for over a year, she hadn't called so i thought i would make the effort plus had something important to tell her, i almost got frostbite from that phonecall though It's not like im not trying to understand these people, as i say, it's not all older generation folk, but there seems to be a type. And before someone says that "oh they have been through troubles" well haven't we all, ive been through a ton of drama in my 33 years but i dont feel bitter like they do.
