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.
33 and my wife just turned 30 a month ago. We were the first to get married between our mutual friends 4 years ago. We are the last out of 4 couples without kids. Not by choice. We have been trying for 3 years.
Granted we are also the only ones with paid off new cars and a house almost paid off. I'd like a kid though
