Living in the 'fast world' (myopic timeline perspective) reduces emotional investment in others' futures because you dismiss their plans as futile or feel less happiness for positive events (engagements, births) and less grief for deaths because everything ends soon anyway; this distorts relationships and reduces emotional authenticity.
