[quote=Anonymous]It's always a mistake to compare yourself to others. First, live your life and make it the best you can, even if others are doing well and are happy. Doesn't detract from what you can do.  Second, you NEVER now whether someone really is better of even if they appear to be.

I married at 24 and it seemed to be a good choice at the time. We were both relatively mature, went to excellent schools, both continued on to grad school. We seemed like decent partners, shares similar goals at the time, traveled and had some amazing adventures. However, fast forward 20 years and we're bitterly divorced and have to coparent 2 kids. We were not well-matched in relationship and parenting values.  Small things became big once we had kids.  I'm remarried now and in a much, much happier place after some very difficult years in my 30s.

Some friends I knew who had not partnered until later did go through lonely or tough times in 20s and 30s. But when they did partner it seems to be for good, and happily.[/quote]
