how can i handle that my life never turned out how i wanted it

[c=7700B2][i]as a child my dreams were to have a girlfriend, get married, travel to the states, travel around europe...have fun times, play the field with women...go to parties, meet people.....but none of that happened sadly, because i suffered with mental problems and had a difficult life...so i missed out on my dreams.

i did have a few flings with girls in my teens, so i didn't completely miss out.....but overall did miss out big time.

now i feel gutted sometimes about it and find it hard to come to terms with...i live alone now in a flat on my own, with my only support system being my elderly parents who live far away.

oh and i'm 46 years of age now, so no longer a spring chicken.[/i][/c]
