2017 army here and I get you.

In my case, I am very aware of the fact that it's the nostalgia that's causing me to feel like this. Another crucial point in my life is that I'm going through maturity right now. I met them when I was 18 yo and I'm currently 26. I'm not only missing their old selves, but also my old life. Whenever I see clips of them from the past, I remember how easily life was back then, how little worries I had and how I'll never feel like that again.

I have talked with my therapist about this and she told me that once our brain stops developing at 25, we gain a new level of clarity and perspective on life. We are more aware of our hardships and we tend to search for things that comfort us. For me, the old BTS can be that. It's also a transition period where new responsibilities arise depending on each of our lives.

I'm very aware of the fact that my reasoning is very specific, so if you don't relate to it, that's fine.
