I'm nearing 30 as well and it's taking heavier and heavier mental toll the more I think about it. Late teens and early 20s are supposed to be your peak years as throughout that short period of time you can enjoy all the freedoms of being adult while having little to no responsibilities. It's amazing how short this window in life actually is and how quickly it whithers away. While others have toured the world, met various people from different walks of life, explored sexuality and relationships I have rotted all these prime years away in front of the screen whether it be at the office or home. At almost 30 I'm at the emotional maturity of a 15 years old, thoughts of having sex make me uncomfortable and I completely don't see myself in any romantic encounter with a woman. My life is a joke and I've become that guy my father always joked about.
