I wasted my best years and have nothing to show for it. I grew up in a poor family so I always was told education above all else. During college I went to parties, made friends but my main goal was education unfortunately. I was so nervous about getting through pharmacy school that I spent all my time focusing on school and not hookups or girls. Towards the end I gained a lot of weight on top of being always obese. I had a mental breakdown and messed up a lot.
Now almost 2 years removed from graduation after messing up my first job, I have a full time job in a hospital( had to take a paycut to just get this experience).
Now I’m old Im 26 M working, while exploring other opportunities that interest me in my field(already got a few interviews), I’m hitting the gym and on ozempic. I’m going to therapy.
I’m working hard for myself but I missed the crazy hookups and stuff. And dating apps don’t work for 5’6 guys, women don’t care if a guy is trying.
All a woman is gonna see is a short 5’6 virgin who’s overweight. She’s not gonna care about the work I put in or the fact I’m interested in getting to know her. She’s gonna think how I’ve gone this long without seeing a woman naked and having sex and assume I’m a creep.
I’m feel like I’m ever gonna get a good job, or a family, or happiness. All because I ruined my life. And I don’t even know how to get over that.i worked so hard to improve my life and feel like I’ve ruined it.
It sucks knowing I’m gonna end up homeless without a family someday.
