Yes, this. Before my mid-20s, I thought it was just something people said about aging and not an actual phenomenon, but then I started to notice it actually happening. I realized, when you are say, five years old, a year represents a fifth of your life, but at 25, it's a 25th of your life, so maybe it makes sense that years seem shorter the older you get, because they are ever-smaller fractions of your lifespan. Or maybe that's just a bullshit rationalization? I don't know. All I know is that it seems to be a real thing and it just keeps getting worse the older I get.
