When to give up?

I have given up trying to maintain relationships that aren’t the best for me. Sometimes a person hangs on to a relationship too long because they remember the good times, and hold out hope the situation can be repaired. However, while I always try to work things out, I no longer try to hold on to people who are a negative influence in my life. I don’t need to be weighed down by drama.

I haven't gave up anything, just take longer doing it. I think it is different for everyone

Well, if it's not worth it why continue. Kinda like people who quit mylot simply some of them are just tired posting or something. As for clothes I donated some of them because it wont fit me anymore.

I can think of some things that I haven’t done in a long time, but I haven’t given anything up that I can think If.

This is something I have been wondering. Specifically for me, when younger I was a keen SCUBA diver. It was a huge part of my life for 20 years! I finally gave it up when Little One was two, it was just too difficult and time-consuming and not family-friendly. I sold all my equipment and promised myself that I would start again in due course. Now time has passed and I'm wondering when should I go back, or even should I go back at all? Or should I encourage the girls to try and we could all go together?

With physical things your body tells you it's time to move on especially if you suffer a significant injury. Other items like movies, books, travel may depend on your interests changing as you age. I have given up on many sports I enjoyed. At a certain age, one can no longer effectively or physically do them. Hitting a baseball, playing and even throwing a football, or shooting a basketball are things I did frequently when younger that I cannot do either because of physical limitations.

I think you need to relinquish things on your own terms, as you are ready, but before your are forced to by becoming decrepit.

I think nothing will stop me..even in age.

I do all of the things that I did when I was younger.

Age does not slow me down, I eat, drink, and enjoy what I like, I still enjoy the movies I did long ago, I wear what ever I like and I do not think about adjusting my life to accommodate my age,

Like all humans, I have gone through my phases. I rode a bicycle and rode a horse when I was young. I hiked mountain trails. I can't do those wonderful things any more. I have learned to walk with a cane- my cane has a dragon's head so it helps me to not feel quite so ancient. I am grateful that I can get up, stand, and walk. I am grateful that I still can drive a car though I can't and won't drive a car in heavy highway traffic.

I don't think that I have given up on anything as such. But yes, I would not go out of the way to make an impression or please someone as I did when I was young. Maybe that's the wisdom I have got that it's nit worth it.

never gave up, instead you may change your style, way of doing things may be. i think i change the way i used to use social media, i was so obsessed, posting everything online, and then with passage of time i realized that i should keep my privacy and avoid putting everything online.. So now, i do not usually post, but follows people to stay updated with what's happening round the world.
