So I'm 23 which is still young but I have been feeling like a failure lately because other people my age have gone to college or are getting married. I work minimum wage job which I think is great for my age but other people (regular customers, church members, people outside of my family and friends) are always pestering me about school or rubbing it in my face that so and so from high school is now engaged...I just feel like I'm always behind in life stages. I got my drivers license last year which was something people used to pester me about. I know these people may have good intentions but it is secretly hurting my feelings allot. I didn't get financial aid so I'm not going to school this semester. Just wish people where more considerate before they say things.:-( its not that I'm lazy or not trying but that the means to get these goals are not avaible yet. I feel like people see me as less than others because I haven't been there yet.
