What did you used to do that you don't do anymore?

I'm no longer a doormat for men but I do still let my children walk all over me sometimes.

Hopefully I'll be able to return here one day to say that was something I used to do that I don't do anymore as well.

 

"I used to be disgusted, now I try to be amused"

 

I'm amused at how many people 'used to smoke at lot of pot'--no offence. I don't drink at all 'cept for my birthday and Christmas but I do 'smoke' pot (use a vaporizer) when I want to. Perhaps I used to smoke pot even when I didn't really 'want' to but felt I needed to.
I used to not have heart failure so I used to not take any prescription drugs.
I used to be a licensed clinical therapist and was really happy doing so. Even though my heart function is such now that I probably could go back part time I no longer care to help people for pay.
I used to let anxiety cripple me.
I used to think that maybe I'd never be happy in my marriage. I now think it's possible.

 

I am, too, Fangirl. Some people are healthier than they used to be, some are less healthy than they used to be. So no one is still using a lot of drugs and still skinny?

I'd have to say I'm a lot less hung up about sex and sexual things than I was when I was younger. This is the existential cruelty of life. We get hipper/wiser at the same rate that the opportunities shrink. Or something like that. At least in this one area.

 

Used to have more fun.
Used to look forward to the future.
Used to smoke - everything, tobacco and pot

running on the street, basketball, tennis. Knees are too fragile now for that.

 

I used to do drugs. I still do, but I used to, too.

I used to go three or four nights without sleep when working on projects. (Silly bugger)
I used to speak fluent French. er .. and semi fluent Latin.
I used to actively WANT to compose music.
I used to not recognize romantic signals. I'm not actually any good at it now, but I'm a bit further along the way.

 

I used to remember what I used to do......

 

I used to sweat the small stuff to the detriment of the important.

 

I used to bike everywhere as a teen, then drive everywhere, now I bike most places again.

I used to be a slob.
I used to be a major movie buff.
I used to be into fashion.
I used to be more optimistic.
I used to laugh a lot more.

 

I used to think I had figured out the world financially. I had a plan to retire at 55 or earlier and travel the country. Oops....wrong

 

Not like the old days ashland - when you could have ridden the rails with Benji, Lassie or three unlikely friends travelling across the wilderness together in search of home.

 

I used to be in a hurry to go anywhere.
I used to party and drink myself into oblivion.

I used be a normal weight (now I'm pretty fat)

I used to hate my job (now I dont mind it, maybe even enjoy it some of the time)

I used to spend more than I had all the time (now I dont and cant, and I dont feel any different at all in terms of quality of life living of a pretty tight budget compared to when I was running up credit all the time, only thing I miss is not having a car)
