Try not to be hard on yourself about it. Sometimes when we are younger and our priorities are very different, we let sporting events get the best of our emotions.
When I was in my 20s , I would break things in fits of anger and just be miserable if the Saints lost (and from 1996-2006 they lost a lot of games).
It took a while for me to realize how crappy I was to myself and those around me - but once you have that revelation, it changes everything about how you consume sports involving the teams you love and how you treat those whom you love.
I can still be miserable (inside) when the Saints lose (or get hosed) but it’s remarkable how quickly it all passes now.
Here’s to good times ahead when all this other drama is behind us.
Wonderful post.
I was young indeed but I’m still ashamed of that. I was absolutely miserable to be around if the Saints lost. My time for being a moron (lol) 92-09. The Super Bowl changed me. Sad that it took that.
It’s funny, I’ve created 3 lifelong die hard Saints fans, an Ex fiancé an ex wife and a daughter. My relationship with 2 of those three has been nil for a long time, but their love of the Saints endures. ?
Losses only sting for a moment now, and they do not impact how I feel or interact with those I love, at all. Only wish I could go back and change how I acted back then.
Thanks for the well wishes, same to you my friend.
