I'd agree with you if I were 15 years younger and knew what I know now. 20 year olds should have blind optimism; there's opportunity for them everywhere. I'm a long way past that point now, however. I have to navigate the path I put myself on.

It's not about what I'm worth. With relationships, it's about not being interested in worn-out 40-year old divorcees with gaggles of kids. And work-wise, while I don't 'love' what I do, I'm competent, and it's the perfect job in that I get a lot of time off. Wish I made more money, but, hey, who doesn't. I get by, no complaints.
I'm not luv, in any case. While I do see myself as a 2 or a 3 on the looks chart, maybe a 4 if the poor old girl left her thick glasses at home, I also realize that doesn't matter a whole lot in the overall scheme of things. I have other qualities. Just wish I'd realized that when the options were more...palatable. Like I said, if I was 15 years younger and know what I do now. It's just a waste of time at this point. |

I'm a bit of a strange duck, though. I'm basically Peter Gibbons - my dream in life would be to do nothing. And I don't really need much. Computer for gaming/work/'net, as many books as I can get my hands on, a TV, an MP3 player with audiobooks. Food. Lots of food. Someplace nice to walk/jog outdoors. That's about it. |

35 is certainly young, but that doesn't change the fact that I don't find the great majority of real world 35-year old women attractive, and it only gets worse the further north the number goes. But hey, maybe I will when I'm 50, assuming I live that long.
To each his own. |

Yes, I'm sure college campuses are just bursting at the seams with 20-year olds looking for guys my age.
Well, okay, if I was in a tax bracket about 1000 times my current one, but let's be realistic here. |
