I finally had to accept the fact that I was one of life's total losers and I was never going to amount to anything. I gave up on my girlfriend after 8 years, got the only job I could find (minimum wage retail), and stopped speaking to my friends. That was 30 years ago. I don't know why I still bother.

@TessDun Thanks for BA!

@hunkalove It is I feel the most relatable even not all can admit it. I hope by 40 I will totally stop being affected by society's/family's/relatives/other friends standard and just accept life as it is and be genuinely peaceful and contented. 🙏

@TessDun if you tell people you are 39 they always like to point out to you how old you will be next year for some reason! Once your 40 no one bothers anymore

@carolinehugz I told myself when I turned 70 I would leave SW because no one that old should be wasting what little time they have left on a website like this. I'm now 71, but I'll leave my age as 60-69 until the grim reaper drags me away.

@hunkalove I didn't know you could backdate you're displayed age on here
