In reality it is the feelings that we attach to any activity that make the experience memorable. That’s a great point Laurie.

His fixation on the past is robbing both of you of what could be the best days of your life. I feel your pain here and it saddens me to see a potentially happy and satisfying relationship being held at bay. Try asking you husband to read this article and “<a href="http://advancedlifeskills.com/blog/what-controls-your-happiness/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">What Controls Your Happiness</a>,” maybe he will realize what he is doing to himself and your relationship. Let me know how it goes and thanks for sharing your comment. Hi KIm, I would say that your husband epitomizes the dangerous side of Glory Day Syndrome.

He's happiest when he's surrounded by memories of the good old days. Being his wife it's downright painful that his happiest moments don't include me. Sure, we have our good times and he is generally "happy" with me, but they really don't compare to how he is when he's traveling down memory lane.

Always thinking back to the things I did once, long ago, and either wishing I could change things or withing I could be back there again. But little good does that do. I spent so much time thinking about the past, that one day, I realized I wasn't doing anything for my future. Today, the present and the future are all that counts. What you did before is over and done with, and it is how you enjoy life that makes the difference. ~ Kristi <abbr><em>Kikolanis last blog post..<a href="http://kikolani.com/how-to-keep-rss-subscribers.html" rel="nofollow">How to Keep Your RSS Subscribers</a></em></abbr> I used to have glory day syndrome.

For me, our Glory Days were when we were doing something that we loved. We can live our Glory Days in the present when we continue doing what we love. "What we love" will probably have changed but finding what that is by taking action will make today a Glory Day. Thanks for the post - I really enjoyed it! GDS – that’s a great way to put it!
