You're describing a sense of nostalgia. And no, I don't consider it immature.

Vagueposting.

It's not immature all to reminisce about times in your life that brought you joy.

am I immature if I feel

No. Never. Feelings are just as real in adults as they are in children. It's tragic, toxic some might say, that we've built society to think otherwise.

It’s not immature to miss something good in your life in the past.

Subculture or not it sounds like you just met some friends.

I also would love to know what the subculture was.

But IMO no, you're not immature. I think it's only natural.

Personally, I get sad just hearing stories like this. About subcultures, or communities, or groups, or websites, or games, that people used to love and get joy out of no longer being around because they died or faded away over time. That sense of loss makes me sad even when I had nothing to do with the community.

You can't leave me hanging, what subculture?

Punks?

What's the point of not mentioning which subculture? It's not exactly doxxing lol

No, it's normal.

What is immature is to dwell on it and prevent you from moving on with your life. Like, I'm in my 40s and I meet people who are still hung up on shit that happened to them in high school or college. It's weird.

I believe that is only human. Humans are funny that way. They like things and groups and get sad when you take them away.

If you are, so am I. I was part of the BBS scene, and it didn't survive the transition to the internet. I've never felt so well-understood since then. Sometimes I dream about the LAN parties and summer picnics.

Essentially, you're just describing a feeling of "Better Times", or nostalgia. Nothing wrong with that, and everyone has those feelings.

It becomes a problem when people tend to fixate on that, and not realize that time has passed. Not that you can't create those conditions and feelings again, but that life circumstances and everything else really make it impossible to replicate that same thing again realistically.

I think it may serve you better to focus on what about that situation made it great for you, and what practical means you have to create a similar social circle again that will approximate those same feelings. It won't be exactly the same, of course, but it sounds like you have just been feeling somewhat lost without a similar group of people around you.

Dunno what happened with your subculture but there is a recurring path that isn't pretty:

Geeks, MOPs, and sociopaths in subculture evolution

what was the subculture OP??

I swear to God if this is the chav woman again..

Juggalos?
