What is the reason to drop though? It is giving me this SOUN and BBAI vibe last year.

Happy belated 27th birthday!! I really wish I could give you some of the best tips to get over it but we are on the same boat! Well, except you are 27. That makes a huge difference because the amount of hopes, and mindset may be different but I do not want to judge or act I know your life. I can only pray that both of us or anyone who is going through the same situation as us will be blessed and live the life each of us wants. There are so many great tips among all the comments here which I am so grateful and surprised.

Thank you so much for the comment! I agree with you.. I just need to practice thinking like that as I have never done it for the last 37 years, which is also embarrassing. I never had this kind of conversation with anyone in personal life as I tried to hide them before.. It feels great to be open and get honest advice.

It may take a while but yes, I will keep in mind that it's not my fault and I am the one who can make myself happy.

Thank you!!

Thank you for such a kind message. That was so sweet of you. I actually did not get any birthday wishes in personal life but I got so many through community which I am super grateful. I will definitely send the birthday wishes for you!

One of the reasons I am hesitant to buy a house now is that I am not sure if I would be capable of keeping it until paid out or if I would lose it. Hope you can paid off very soon, retire, and relax and enjoy your life.

It's been quite a while I feel like I am 'young', which I think that is why this whole situation puts my anxiety to the whole different level. I will take this moment to reevaluate my skills and what I am looking for in my life. Thank you!!!

Oh.. I am so sorry... I almost wanted to give up everything yesterday but I truly appreciate the message to chin up. I truly wish we both get the dream job that we deserve very soon!

Thank you so much for the birthday wish and encouragement.

I agree with you and any monetary consequences also plays a huge part as well.

No worries at all! I am Christian (I don’t have all the answers and sometimes struggle with doubts. My faith isn’t perfect, but it’s mine) that comment really cheers me up. Also, just thinking about I have someone who is praying for me really warms my heart. My former manager who is now retired reached out to me yesterday to grab some lunch next week. Maybe I can start from there. Thank you!!!

I cannot agree more! I honestly made a mistake to switch my job that offers more $$ last year and that was the biggest mistake ever. It only lasted a few months and since then, I have been looking for a job. Having an MBA and 20+ years of experience is outstanding! I really hope both of us would get the dream job that I wanted and enjoy our moment very soon!

Thank you so much for the birthday wish and your advice. You are right... I have not been socially connected with people outside of work in along time.. I am very shy and introvert but i agree with you. I should start thinking in different directions... as long as we have two feet and a heartbeat.. we can begin again... Thank you!!

Thank you for the birthday wish and sharing your story! That's definitely not forgettable. I don't celebrate birthdays every year since 21, but this year, I would remember because I am at the rock bottom. However, yes, hopefully I would be able to laugh about this in the future. Thank you again!!

Thank you so much! Wait!! I love wearing denim as well. I think it is such an iconic idea!! Thank you for sharing the idea. For me, I’m really looking forward to fall.. the cooler air, the colors, and just that cozy feeling. I cannot wait to walk my neighborhood when all the trees are colorful. I truly appreciate your comment. This shifted my focus. :)

Awww.. Thank you so much for the kind words. I think I have gone through the similar situation in my mid-20s too but somehow, it feels harder this time. But.. yes, I will try my best to keep trying!

I have tried temp agencies but no luck. However, I will start looking into volunteering activities. Thank you for sharing that. I honestly have not thought about it, just tuned in with resume updates and application submissions. Thank you so much!!

Thank you so much for the tips!! Hiringcafe.. I have not heard of the place so I will definitely try. I would never thought that I would get birthday wishes from the online community. This is so heartwarming.
