My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Man, you're not wrong, 2009/2010 feels so close, I can't believe it's been a decade since games like Mario Galaxy 2, Bayonetta, and Uncharted 2. The 2010s flew by like a bullet train.
Still, when I think about all that happened in that time, all that I experienced, achieved, and overcame, I have come a very long way in that time.

God, I know that feeling. I'm 31, and in some ways I feel ancient and passed my prime, while in others I feel like I'm still a teenager masquerading as an adult. I feel like emotionally I'm younger than my actual age, but working with kids and colleagues who are mostly in their 20s makes me feel older than I am.

Totally this.
Besides, I have the feeling that I'm doing with my life now what I should've been doing years ago, and what I did years ago I should've done it before, and so on. It's like being in a race against myself, just running and running, but always knowing that I'll never catch up.

I can definitely relate to that. I was developmentally delayed so I got around to a lot of things later in life than most people; even as an adult I didn't have my first relationship/girlfriend until I was 23, whereas all my peers were dating in high school.

My situation is definitely worst. I'm 28 and never had a girlfriend, while my best friend is 25 and has a four year old son.

Sorry man, I know it sucks.
When I was 20-22 at University and everyone but me was dating 'n' mating, I definitely felt left out and like there was something terribly wrong with me. If you'd asked me when I was 22 I was starting to think I'd never get to date or have sex in my life, it was all starting to feel totally hopeless.
I'm afraid the only advice I can give is to put yourself out there as much as possible and not give up.

21 was my age, but I had a massive dose of luck back then, and that relationship was over almost even before it started. Hard for me to really click with people, and vice versa.
