When I was lying on the floor of my apartment after my divorce, depressed as hell, I realized that my unhappiness was based on someone else’s issues with themself.
I got up, dusted myself off, and decided that I wasn’t going to consider myself a failure based on the metrics of someone whom I no longer respected.
For me, it’s right now. Just broke up with my gf 2 days ago. There was nothing truly wrong with her, I don’t think. We were just in different life stages, she was 6 years older. Well, when I do turn 32-33, I’ll want to be ready for a baby too, and I’m gonna have to start now to be in a place where I’m truly comfortable with that.
I’m over 40 and still don’t think I have my life together…
That being said, I think quite a few people look at me and think that I do.
I bought a house around 30, I already had 2 kids at that time, and just finished my education. But I still don’t know how to do my taxes, or cook besides the odd boiled egg, and with hobbies I usually have more in common with kids rather than adults.(Boardgames, computer games etc.)
I can talk about politics, but only at surface level and I find talks about the weather incredibly dull.
So my recommendation to you is, don’t get your life together.. just make good choices and you’ll end up fine. (This is said from the assumption that I could learn how to do my taxes if I had to)

When I became a dad at age 20.
Shit kept falling apart and no one else was going to put it back together
Did you know that when you go to the hospital to have a baby, they just give it to you after a couple of days and let you leave?
Yeah, that’s the exact moment.

Jimmy, that ain’t ever happening.

When the scale hit 300lbs and I couldn’t play with my toddler for more than a few minutes without getting winded
14 when I got my working papers. Time to get to work.
The biggest one was when I found out I was going to be a dad.
