I feel very lost. How many people in their mid 30's don't know what they want to do when they grow up? I'm really having a hard finding my place in the world. My life seems to be self combusting and there is no way out. 6 years in the airlines has taken its toll on me. I just can't seem to find my way.
My wife, whom I am separated from, is allowing me to move back in the house. I am at the point where I can't take care of myself anymore. I don't know if it's a good idea but have run out of options. I want to save my marriage but may have waited until it is too late. I want to go back to school but don't know what I want to do. I have applied for grad school but have been denied both times. I have a degree in History which has proven to be useless in terms of providing a career. |

Many people that are thirty some thing (plus) have a hard time at finding their place in this world.... and the stats show that the average person changes their career 2 to 3 times in their life time.... So try to cheer up - for you are normal. And - as far as going back to school goes.... why not try and find out what your passion is and then follow that road.... Good Luck. LoVe, Rhapsody -  P.S. I use to be from Kentucky..... born and raised in the mountains of KY until i was 12 years old.... then we moved away. What part are you from? |

I am really sorry that you are going though this. I have nothing concrete to offer, but I do believe that just by acknowledging and offering support, a tiny difference is made.
Actually - I do have something I might like to suggest. Have you told your wife you would like to save your marriage? Does she know? If communication is possible, perhaps you could tell her what you are feeling about saving your marriage without pressuring her. I don't believe that it is ever too late. My thoughts are with you.
