For anyone who needs to hear it:
Your late teens/20s are a weird time in your life. Don’t panic if you think somebody is more “ahead” than you. The concept of being ahead is nonexistent anyway because life’s not a race and each person has different hurdles to overcome.
It’s totally fine if you’re single. It’s fine if you’re still finishing school. It’s fine if you are still looking for a better job, or for any job at all. It’s fine if you haven’t had sex yet, or haven’t gotten your driver license yet. It’s fine if you haven’t gotten your own place yet. It’s fine if you are still figuring things out, saving money, putting the pieces together. It’s fine.
Don’t feel jealous of or lesser than people your age who have done these things. You don’t know what obstacles they faced to get there and they don’t know what you’ve faced. Don’t undermine the progess you have made.
Because, trust me, you have made progress. Even if it hasn’t materialized yet in the traditional way.
You are still young. Like really young.
You got time.
A few months ago I mentioned to my friend that she should buy her boyfriend flowers because more men should get flowers from their partner and she did it today and apparently he was shaking from excitement and emotions because he’s never recieved flowers before. So, anyway, get yo man some flowers.
That’s honestly the most pleasant thing I’ve ever read. Guys should get flowers. I want flowers. Most dudes only get flowers at their funeral.
If a masculine person likes flowers they should get flowers. I hope you get some flowers.
I was supposed to be wearing shorts and eating by the pool not crying in a diner every day
