I was not ready for this

2 months ago 25

They didn't prepare me for the turmoil I was to face concerning romantic relationships. As you grow up, it seems as if things romantically go on a downward spiral. I'm 24 (F), jjust got my Degree and my age mates have either gotten pregnant, settled down or found their life partners. And then there's me. The one who feels that they've been very unlucky with love. I even decided to stay single for 2 years just to take a break from the emotional ache. Tried giving love another chance again back in August '24 and it tried to destroy me. I was not prepared for the sadness, confusion and heartache concerning my romantic life. I feel so sidelined. Like I'm watching people becoming happy. I dated a lot back in my late teens and very early 20s. Until I turned 22 and decided I needed time to myself and to get my life in order (I still am trying to get my life in order). I know everyone meets the love of their life at the right time but my time feels like it's taking forever. I'll continue to be patient though.

Can anyone relate?
