Sometimes I reflect back on my life and I get sad about how I missed out a lot in my late teens and my twenties (especially my early twenties). I hated my life so much and I felt like I wasn't allowed to have fun. And I know I'm directing my anger and remorse to the wrong place, but it's really annoying to hear my friends talk about how fun and cool that time had been.

They got to go out and have fun. And I know none of us had easy lives, it's still really painful to hear them be fond of a time in which I felt like the world was crashing down on me. I also hate talking about it because they keep doing the whole "but you helped your family out"/"but you're not there anymore" positivity bullshit.
Like, yeah no fucking shit. But I still have to acknowledge and feel the negative feelings.

I also get really sensitive when they talk about the fun times and try to argue with me when I tell them I didn't get to go out and do the fun thing with them. "I could have sworn you were there."
No, I wasn't.

Ugh I hate feeling this grief so much.

Yeah, I have this weird belated FOMO when it comes to my youth. I never did all the things people connect with being young - I never went to clubs, bars, got drunk or partied, all that stuff. And it's not like I actually WANTED to do any of it but it still feels like I missed out on several key-experiences and it's this weird melancholic feeling.

DA I am someone who had parties in their youth (not a lot of them, but some) and I kinda regret not getting better education or being more ambitious. And frankly I don't think I realistically could be what I wasn't. But I still have regrets. Probably being middle-aged comes with that I guess
