Late to the party

Sometimes I tell someone about something, but they don't listen, or don't care.

Then, much later, they tell me the exact same thing, and I'm like... 

FUCK!
I told you! I told you long ago! Why didn't you listen to me? Why did you only listen when someone else told you the same thing? Too late now! 
This... all goes on in my head, of course.

It's the same feeling when you love something that's brand new, nobody cares, but then it suddenly becomes popular and that kind of ruins it for you. I no longer share the things that I enjoy, people only know how to ruin things, or never really appreciate them as much as you do.

That reminds me... of all the life advice I give out and everyone ignores. I often tell Mom: We could spend so much time and effort giving advice, we can try real hard so other people don't make the same mistakes as us, but it's no use. They will never listen. We have to let them make their own mistakes. Only then will they understand.
