>>7195302>Guess there might be a part of me, which feels failed and not equal to my peers, so it keeps me under pressure now. To catch up and never repeat such hiatus again.Perhaps expectations are different in your country than they are in the USA so I can understand that. Perhaps it is a cultural thing that my advice/questioning cannot solve. I don't know where you live, but I feel playing catch up isn't going to get you the success you're looking for. When I was like this, and feel free to correct me if what I say doesn't apply and I'm wrong, I wanted to hit a point at which my peers would go, "Oh, he's normal so we can accept him" and let me be me. Until I realized most of those people were generally fake and held little to no interest outside of anything that could elevate their social status. Like I said, perhaps it's just me and an American thing. Maybe it's a matter of you trying to fit into a culture that you know wouldn't make you happy? Perhaps I'm just projecting. Then again, many anons here seem to have similar mindsets, so IDK... Maybe it's just part of growing up. Thoughts?
>>7195335Thank you, anon. We've agreed that we can make this work until she moves in November or December when she moves for her masters. Either I'll be coming with, doing a LDR, or we'll transition ourselves to where we are able to let each other go. Either way, I'm glad I have gotten to experience all of this. Love is nice.
