    I’m in my thirties and physically I’m ok, but it’s getting tougher mentally with each year passed. Job takes most of the time and it’s harder to genuinely connect with people the older you get. Whe I was a kid or teenager I could simply start a conversation with a peer and become friends in a matter of minutes. Not it takes weeks, because everyone’s working and has families. Getting older sucks

      If it makes you feel better, it doesn’t get much worse than where you’re at now in terms of socialization.

      A lot of people spend years wearing about what other people are saying and thinking about them. When you hit your forties you realize nobody’s saying or thinking anything about you at all, You’re too busy dealing with their own slice of hell.
