With thanks to sunlit_shadows for the link and to gyldydshadoe for conversation:

There are a bunch of us, but apparently we're not finding eachother?

Are any of the rest of you (late 20's or otherwise) experiencing this? Do you have any thoughts?

i have that at 40.
most people i know have kids or Big Careers or families or established Life Things that don't allow for hanging-outing. and because i'm still 28 in my mind, i need the going out and goofing off and spontaneous connection that just doesn't happen anymore.

I'm not sure one can ever escape that feeling. I still find myself there relatively often even being married, having a second relationship, having a Plinky, and having two other non-partner housemates.

Girl, I totally hear you on this one! Big co-op knock knock knock! I have friends here but they don't want to hang out with me as much as my needy little self craves company hahaha, I am just beginning to find a jewish community out here in St. Louis but its slow going, I am still very happy to have dumped my ex boyfriend but it would be nice to find other people to just occasionally date or something, and I even sometimes don't have anyone to call if I'm feeling blue.

I also feel that at our age, people don't hang out for as long a time period as they used to. After a couple of hours on a friday night people are ready to hit their beds. Whereas I notice a slightly younger crowd will still party all night.
