life is so bland
Life is so bland and empty. I am 41y F with 1-2 friends, good career and financially stable. But every other aspect of my life has been a failure. I am single, don't get invitation to events and always alone. I used to have so much hope for the future but these days (since I was 39), life has felt empty. Even things that used to excite me like investing and earning an income just does not excite me anymore as I ask myself what am I working so much for? Is this how life is for people as they grow old single without children? I am considering SMBC but worried about having an unhealthy child as I don't have the bandwidth to care for them. Does it get better?
