I think we place too much importance on age. What is a "number" anyway? Isn't it more important how we feel? And aren't your friends more important that how old you are? If you have fun with them and enjoy them, then that's all that matters. I doubt very seriously if they even THINK about how old you are.
And you ARE making progress in your lifes' work. You HAVE met some "milestones." You're not just sitting back and playing all the time! You are a student and you're serious about your future.
Don't worry so much about age. The people you "hang" with are getting older too. Are THEY doing anything with their lives? Or are they just having a good time? Regardless, if you enjoy each other don't sweat it. You know YOU'RE on the right path--and you WILL meet someone in time.
No one placed any "high standards" on ME when I turned 30. In fact I didn't let it be KNOWN when I turned 30, because I didn't look 30 either. The last time I got "carded" I was 39 years old!! LOL I'm 63 now and don't look my age now either. And STILL no one puts "high standards" on me -- I place them on myself.
Enjoy life. Don't sweat so much. God bless and take care. Hugs, Lee
