Recently turned 30 and struggling to even know what i want my life to look like. On paper things good enough – have a good job, steady gf, and will have enough cash soon to buy a house. People have a much harder life than me
The issue is i dont feel excited for any of the classic next steps. Im on the younger end of my friend group, and theyve all moved on from enjoying big nights, or going to festivals, or going out for drinks etc that shaped our 20s, and now when we do hang its becoming increasingly centred around kids
It feels like 30 is that age where youre expected to start sorting the rest of your life out, but that feels incredibly depressing to me.
I did recently become an orphan, so it may just be the depression talking, but does anyone feel lost at 30 or that the traditional next steps feel like what you should do rather than want to do?
