quarter life crisis

[annice22]

I'm having a quarter life crisis. I'm a senior and I'm the oldest member in my sorority. I really don't have much in common with the younger girls in the sorority. I try to hang out with them but they mostly seem like partying all the time. I am stress out because I have so much homework, looking for a full time job (I hopefully will graduate in Dec), etc.

Since spring break I have been more focus on everything because I don't want to fail any my classes this semester (they are really hard).

I just feel like I don't have anyone in my sorority that I can really relate to because they are so young.

The quarterlife crisis was discussed in a similar thread in the Employment forums and I said there that I can totally 100 percent relate. I have been out of school two years but still party as hard as I did in college, and I'm starting to get an unbelievable amount of shit for my fun-loving lifestyle from people in my life who just think I need to grow up. Interestingly enough, it's not even my parents who get on my case--it's friends and aquaintances who should really just mind their own damn business!!!

I continually bounce from guy to guy and it can get so frustrating when so many other people my age are committed/engaged.

I love my job, but it's a low-paying entry level that's basically a stepping stone to something bigger. I told everyone I'd leave after two years, but I don't feel I'm quite ready to......which has, again, people telling me staying here too long is a waste of talent. Maybe I am getting too comfortable.

Basically, I'm sick of people judging me. Live your own life and let me live mine!!!

Yeah that sucks when people want to throw YOU into THEIR quater life crisis. They are just jealous because you are having fun.

I'm myself have not hit the QLC yet. But, if the folks I'm hanging with won't stop talking about marriage and children, I will probably hit it soon. We seem to be at different points in our lives. I'm in search for additional friends because of this. I'll definately keep them, but I need someone who I can relate to.

Could you find additional friends who are more accepting of your lifestyle?

Actually I have found a few. So now we all get shit on together.

At what age does this quarter life crisis happen?

I ask because the average life expectancy in the US is 77.2 so a quarter life is about 19.3. That is too young to have a crisis about anything.
