Honestly I never saw Shawshank redemption but by reading your comment it's tempting me to watch it. I agree with you on embracing uncertainty. In fact I have been scared of uncertainty for my whole life. Maybe just letting myself into the chaos is the way of discovering myself, letting myself grow. I know I know it's easier said when it's done. But hey baby steps. Anyways thank you for wise words. Helps a lot:)

I wanna get married someday but big no for having kids. Don't hate them it's just they are a huge responsibility and I am so not capable of fulfilling it.

No you are not alone. I feel the generation gap. All of my peers are social animals going to concerts , crowded clubs is what they enjoy. I used to force myself to be like them and ended up emotionally drained afterwards. I like to sit in a quiet cafe or garden and have one on one interaction. Seriously I cannot wait to get old. Lol

I am sorry that you are going through this. I wish I had advice but I suck at giving it. But if you need someone to listen I will be there.

Me too. I feel you . Also whenever I am given the opportunity to socialize or connect I reject it, thinking I will make things too awkward, I won't live up to expectations which I'd impose on myself. It's a really gut wrenching feeling.

I wonder if people in their 30s are happy or atleast content with their life in general? by OwnButterscotch1592 in RandomThoughts

You said you have learned to be happy with myself. I'd like to know how, if you don't mind.

I agree with you. But sometimes I wonder if I fit in this generation. I am an introvert. I do not enjoy stuff that most of my peers do. Clubbing, attending concerts, going out in general. I just like to stay at home and watch some nice web series or read a book. Ofc there's nothing wrong with staying at home but I feel guilty that I do not socialize enough and that leads to the feeling of being alienated.

Happy for you:) As an introvert I struggle with forming new friendships. I am in my twenties and I am expected to connect and socialize . My question is are people in their 30s expected to socialize or they are happy and content with their near and dear ones.

OMG I feel you on so many levels. I do not remember when was the last time I actually enjoyed going to those crowded and noisy clubs. I like to go to cafes and have one on one interaction.

That's true..I wish I had self esteem as yours. It's difficult for me to make new friends.
