I have it the other way around. Sometimes when I go on a trip or some event, I feel meh or notice uncomfortable factors too much and actually look forward to go back home at some point. Only when I look back later I realize how awesome it all was. I guess I need some time to process things, or my mind makes them look better in retrospect.
@NerdyPotato I sometimes feel like some things literally come to me much later in a form of a dream in a very combined and not clearly recognizable form. A common theme for me are markets in some country I visited on a vacation where ripe fruits smell amazingly. I love that scenery and it always makes me want to go on a trip again but when I realize how much all the planning and traveling is a pain in the a**, especially with the prospect of doing it all alone, suddenly such a tiny fleeting moment doesn't seem to be worth it all. Especially when I experience it vividly in my dreams already.
@CrazyMusicLover I can relate. The planning (and exhaustion) is why I decided not to travel anymore. I'm grateful for the things I experienced on previous travels and I'm glad I did those, but seeing more isn't worth the hassle.
I try not to think about it too much. If it's enjoyable at the time, I enjoy them. If they just don't seem as fun later but also do no damage in the long run, it's all good. Preferences and priorities change and that's probably a good thing.
@SnailTeeth it's subjective but we're all being pushed the same things, like food, sexual items (clothes for example, makeup and so on), sex itself, drugs and alcohol even, are many times not as enjoyable when consumed. We're absent minded and overdoing it I guess.
@Lostpoet many things. Dating could be yes, sex, chips and similar foods, visiting tropical islands, whatever you know of this scheme of advertised goods
