I will be 35 in a few months and feel like life is passing me by.
I work long hours in what, until recently, I thought was a successful career. Now it turns out that my successful career is at a bit of a dead end.
The thing is I have made a lot of sacrifices over the years for my career. So I suddenly find myself at 35 with no friends (they all got married and had kids and I was left behind), no relationship (been too busy to sustain one in last 15 years), no kids (and no prospect of any), crappy small flat (which I can't sell in the current market), no close by family, no money to try something new or to get away from it all.....
I kick myself now for putting everything into my job and worry that I am going to be alone in a job I hate with nothing to show for my life. Do other people feel like this? Or am I just feeling sorry for myself?
