What is wasted time
Wasting time referred to wasting time, passing years in vain, and wasting time in life. This idiom was often used to describe wasting time without achieving anything. It came from the poem "Yong Huai" by Ruan Ji of the Jin Dynasty: "Entertainment is not ultimate, and the day is wasted." There were similar expressions in ancient literature. For example, Zhang Fengyi of the Ming Dynasty had a sentence in "The Story of the Garden: The Queen's Clothes":"If I can't take revenge and die, I will bury the Longquan Leopard Tao and waste my time." The usage of this idiom is more formal. It can be used as a verb or an object and has a negative meaning.

Our wasted youth

From the information provided, on the one hand, it was possible that the youth was wasted because they did not grasp the time to do meaningful things when they were young, such as not making a name for themselves in their prime. Youth is wasted and fruitless, and white hair and sorrow are too late.") If one were to struggle in their youth, they might only be left with lamentation when they were old. On the other hand, from a modern point of view, wasting youth may be manifested as not living according to one's own heart, but just spending it in a muddle-headed way (such as "sending the child to school, and then coming back to lie down, it's another day of wasting youth"). At the same time, there were also descriptions of youth wasted in literature. For example,"Youth wasted away the face, drunk alone in the pavilion leaning on the white old man" described a state of aging after wasting youth.

Some people might think that not actively striving was wasted, while others might think that not enjoying life and not following their hearts was wasted.
