I am 19 and feel like I am having a mid-life crisis.
I feel like I am sixty years old! I've had a troubled childhood which led me to mature very quickly. I am a sophomore in college, I'm in nursing school, I've been in a successful relationship for two years. But, I've never partied with friends. I've never made out with a guy in a public place. I've always wanted to travel and see the world and do great things, but i can't. It's not feasible. It's not a part of "the plan." I want so badly to leave everyone and everything without a word and disappear to some remote land and live an adventurous life, but i can't. I'm depressed. Nothing fills this longing to be young and free. Nothing. maturity comes with a cost.
I'm sixty, feel like 19. Your frustration will pass. My last two years in college were brutal, no time for friends, a social life, girlfriend...nothing. At least you have a bf now. If you REALLY feel too pressured, take a break, clear your head, but then get back in harness, it's worth it in the end.
