What was your biggest issues in each time period (a decade) of your life?

With each 10 years our problems and issues changes. For eg.

1-10 yrs : Feeding I guess.🙂
10-20 : Teenage issues. Controlling parents, Need for freedom. Love, Boyfriend/Girlfriend drama
20-30 : Relationship issues, Unemployment.
30-40 : Family issues, Mortgage, financial issues
40-50 : Teenage children driving you nuts, First signs of health issues, divorce
50-60 : Health issues. Loneliness 😖
60-70 : Many issues...can't remember 🤔

So what was the biggest problems of your life in each decade of your life?

So I do not seem to follow the normal path I think!

Maybe you can say I have relationship issues, I don't have relationships really any more in my life it is too hard for me and is always will go wrong.

I have no worry for things like unemployment and financial issues, I have a good job and side project and always will earn a lot of money so is very comfortable like this.

I don't have children so I don't worry for this is not something I ever want to do, and I still am get on very well with my mother, my brother and my sister so family is ok for me.

I don't feel lonely, I think with work and colleague and friends and family this will always be enough for me.

Health issues, this is maybe the big thing for me but is not age health issues like you say. I have many mental health issues but I know for these and is part of me now and I know how I can best manage this.

But everyone has issue and worry in life, for some is always different things x

@MadraLaska You seem to be in a better place than most.
And you mentioned mental health. I find it more and more common among people. It just clogs the flow of happiness in life, isn't it?

May I ask why you find it hard to have a relationship? Do you find the other person don't have the necessary patients with you?

@Renkon Yes there is too many characteristic and requirements from me it makes it so hard for any one to be with me for too long time! I know this now and for me I just have to learn to live life for this way.

@MadraLaska Like attracts like. So I don't think you should compromise your core values.

Sometimes you meet someone who has qualities worthy enough for us to make compromises.

Basically everyone is looking for the perfect person. Rarely exist. Instead look for people with right kind of differences. And a good human being.

You should keep looking, who knows. Also don't miss on those simple joys in life.
