I don't get very excited about anything anymore, either. It's like an even-keeled attitude. Less ups, but less downs too.
I think people see "new" stuff as their "savior" - the "thing" that will make them happy (!!!), and they get all excited. The feeling lasts for a short time, and then it's on to get that next new thing!
I think it's a sign of maturity and emotional intelligence to not get excited. There's more internal supply of validation and satisfaction, and less external is needed/wanted.
What do you think?
