[quote=Anonymous]"I think if you are in your thirties, childless, single and not doing great in your career, you feel it more and compare yourself to others who have achieved all those things." You know, I lost a good friend in my 30s because she felt the same way - she couldn't handle what I (and others in our circle) had at the time. Has she stuck around, she would have seen me go through secondary infertility, divorce, some rocky career moments, and a struggle with parenting my great but difficult child. She would have seen another friend deal with with post-partum depression, other health problems, marital problems, and nursing both parents through cancer treatments at the same time, one of whom didn't make it. No, life isn't fair. Some people get more and some get less. Some have it easier and some have it harder. But most of us have our share of ups and downs, and I think life would be much easier if you had the perspective to see that and deal with that. [/quote]
