Emotions from the past

Not that I ever was a very emotional person, but I suppose I used to let myself feel emotions more strongly.    People would say, "Wow!  Look at that guy doing DDR on Heavy!" and I would want to say, "That's only a 7-footer, I can do 10 foot songs, backwards even!"  Of course I would never actually say that, but I'd always want to.  People would say they're smart and I would think, "Man, if you're going to just call yourself a genius, you're probably not that smart."  I hated it when people who weren't that good at things bragged about themselves, or other people talked so much about them, when I could easily be better and they might never recognize me.

I used care more if I won or lost too.  You probably think, "Everyone wants to win," and yeah, I used to too.  I used to let myself be bothered by more things.  I used to care more about people getting what they deserved.  (Not that I ever knew what that was.)  Basically, I was just a totally different person.

Not really.  I didn't really change that much.  I think I did let some of my emotions weaken though.

I think the me of the past was wrong, but not for feeling emotions more strongly.  I think it was a mistake to give them up, partly for what I defined as "strength."
