Probably in your 30's then!! Or some women peak closer to 40!!
Guys daring each other to ask you out, but never landing a date!!!
HI!!! ME!! OH, they flirt!! Their eyes, they do be 'a wandering, but do you think, for one stinking minute, I get asked out!?!? BOYS!!! what a joke!!!
OMG, let me talk about the workplace here, since you mention feeling like a loser for not having a job---oh, it will get worse working, because get these two life stories!!
One time, I had this CSR job all lined up through this job I kept through college---they um wrote a letter, so I could get a car loan, right out of college stating my salary. So I show up for work to switch departments. The MALE boss, tells me, ahhh, I'm sorry, I didn't agree to that, because no, I don't think you handle being on the phone with clients, you are just too quiet!! (((UMM, EVER heard MY Phone Voice!!! I'm great on the phone!!!))) What an idiot!!
Oh, and then there was this one time, I was temp/reception/accounts receivable/payable for this roofing company. The MALE Boss, decided I wasn't Eye Candy enough!! ((yeah, he's the type that breaks his neck looking at me now...*birdie*))
Loser for not working? Nyet!!
Work through those Self Esteem Kinks, and then you'll see what we are talking about((geesh, I was about to write ghetto...what we be talkin' 'bout, iight?!))
Loser over boys?! Nyet!! I am not a man hater, but I am discovering a certain power in having grown into my skin!! Like a Swan Song!!!
Loser over fearing driving!! Do you know how many people are scared of that! Plenty. Those vehicles, have you seen some of the other drivers out there?! It's an obstacle course out there!!!
Anyways....
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! You are no longer a teenager

I've had potential for 20 years now. When do I actually get to be good? Is there some point that your potential actually becomes something or is your potential something that is never realized until you're lying on your death bed and looking back on your life?
And what about my potential to be in the exact same place 20 years from now? No one ever talks about that kind of potential. Sure, I have potential to be a successful human being, but I also have potential to die alone on the streets in two years. I also have potential to walk out of my house tomorrow morning and get hit by a car and die and my funeral, everyone would say "oh she had such great potential". Wow so sad that I'm dead. I could have amounted to something but never did wow what a waste of my life.
Maybe I'm being overly cynical or just excessively impatient, but it's so frustrating watching and listening to your friends talk about their relationships/exes, talking to people who don't know you very well and they make some sort of covert statement about how I'd know how relationships are, or your older friends talk about getting engaged when you're convinced you'll probably be at least 25 before having your first kiss. It's like I've been on this earth for two decades and not a single person has found me at all desirable even when they're drunk.
