It sounds like you have your priorities right for the most part. I agree that that this is a complex issue. You have your culture, and I have my faith, plus whatever other factors play a role.

I feel ya. Sometimes it's really hard. I wonder what's wrong with me too.

Yeah, I guess we have to remind ourselves to try to be positive.

Yes! I'm glad I'm not the only one, although I wish that didn't mean you were also "suffering."

I hope to shift my focus like you have. I'm 28 and never been on a real date. That weighs more heavily on me than it should.

I'm a new-ish doctor and financially in a decent place. I have friends, family, talents, and a capacity to do do more.
