I'm 27. I simultaneously feel like I don't know anything and also like I've come to understand some deep truths. Maybe they're just personal truths, I don't know. First of all, there's more to life than women. So many men are chasing women or parteners in general. And for what? A lot of people my age have ended up in situations they aren't emotionally prepared for and then they get stuck. Living with another person and being emotionally available and compatible with that person is a lot of work. And if your primary motivation is just to get your rocks off, I think you'll be terribly disappointed. The other truth I feel like I've discovered is that there are a lot of "childish" things that I love. I recently put those little star sticker things that glow in the dark all over the ceiling of one of the rooms in my condo. I'm planning to paint the walls like a grassy meadow with flowers and then fill the room with beanbag chairs. I don't know, when I talk to other people about it, they don't always get it. It sounds like a playroom. Because that's exactly what it is. And it brings me immense joy.
