Is there any difference between "I worry about" and "I am worried about?"
For example: I worry about my future.
I am worried about my future.
Are they same?
For example: I worry about my future.
I am worried about my future.
Are they same?
I worry about =\ I am worried about?
No they're not.
*I worry about my future* (all the time)
*I am worried about my future* (right now).
*I worry about my future* (all the time)
*I am worried about my future* (right now).
Worry is the verb, worried is the adjective. If you worry, you are worried, and if you are worried, you are worrying. I think there's no difference whatsoever.
I guess it's something about your condition which is better described by "to be tired" rather than "tire of". Moreover, I haven't heard the word "tire" too much in Present Simple.
>>What about: I'm tired of watching TV. I tire of watching TV<<
It's much like the previous example as described in the fourth post. But it helps to add a little context, as in the following, to make better sense of what's being said.
I'm tired of watching TV; let's find something else to do. - puts us in the present so you're currently watching TV.
I tire of watching TV; I prefer playing video games - means you generally find TV boring.
By the way, I personally wouldn't use the phrase "tire of" when speaking but you will find it in writing.
