Trying to catch up

UnicornKeeper107 January 9th, 2022

My peers and friends have all dated either in high school or just in life in general. I am 23 and just now trying to figure out if I want to date or if what I feel is the desire to date or if I'm ready for all that but I just feel so behind in life like I didn't hit this milestone so in my head I feel 12. Anyone else have this kinda feeling or situation?

I just want to tell you that you are ok. Everyone has a unique path to figuring out what they want in life and who they want to spend more intimate time with. Don't doubt your worth or your future just because you are on a little different timeframe than the people around you. You will find your person ❤️

Hello, and thank you for sharing! After reading this, I feel like I can understand your situation. It is easy to feel left out when it feels like everyone around you is in a relationship and you are still trying to understand what it is that you want in life. But you are still very young, and have a lot of time to figure out what you are looking for in a companion if that is something that you wish to pursue. Everybody’s path is different, so you do not need to compare yourself to your peers or friends and feel pressured to be in a relationship just because it seems like they are. Only you know when you are ready to date and if that seems like something that you are interested in, and if you don’t know right away, that is okay! Our lives are constantly changing, so it is only natural that our feelings will change too! Wishing you all the best!❤️
