Like the title says, I missed the boat 15 years ago in high school and never recovered. Now almost all of my peers appear to be married with kids, so that leaves me feeling utterly screwed. I've tried coping by immersing myself in romance novels but that has the opposite effect. The cynicism has led me to lean into dirty humor which has cost me jobs.
I'm currently working with a therapist about this so I'm not just relying on the internet. Any preliminary advice would be highly appreciated though.
TL;DR, I missed a fundamental social milestone in high school of getting to experiment with relationships, and 15 years later I feel like I'm completely screwed.
