Eli5: Why did a day feel forever at age 10, but now at 25 it feels like 2 hours?
In: Biology
On average, adults are far busier than children. Time tends to feel like it passes faster the busier you are. Imagine a day in the life of a 10 year old vs that of a 25 year old. The 10 year old has school and some homework. The 25 year old has work, maybe social obligations, perhaps a lover, a family to take care of, Bill’s to sort through, health appts to make, taxes to pay, politicians to vote for, sex to have, online forums to argue in, and on and on.
