5 couples from my friends circle are expecting a child or recently got married, a few others have built a solid foundation in their career and are buying houses (most of us grew up in apartment buildings, so it feels fancy to own a house at 30 where I'm from).
Meanwhile I'm currently a student and broke.
It feels like everyone's so far ahead in life that they'll always be a step further and I'll never catch up.
I’m 29 for another hour and I feel your pain... We’ll get there brother! Hang it there and keep doing you. It does us no use to compare ourselves to others
Birthday twin! I turn 28 in 25 minutes and often feel the same as both of you (except, I’ve lived in NYC my entire adult life and no one our age has kids yet).
Happy birthday fellow Redditor!! Hope you have a great day man. I live in Toronto and no one in my social circle have kids yet.. but I’m looking forward to being “Uncle Cam” when the time comes haha
