Well first my former bullies (4th to 8th grade) took away my developmental years and stunt my social skills. Instead I would end up stuck bored at home, reading books and just focusing on getting good grades. I was never an introvert nor homely girl; that was involuntary. I wanted friendships and more social life but couldn't have that by getting bullied.
Then my first ex boyfriend lied about the whole relationship and meanwhile I was acting serious (like a future serious material many men would've liked), he was out cheating, partying and lastly scammed me. My years were destroyed and he never proposed. It was a game to him.
So just recently on my 37th b-day and starting this year, I've been meeting new people and hanging out more often, becoming somewhat popular in the process. I've gone to some parties and gotten drunk for the sake of it, for fun. I've done what I should've done back then. I felt as if I never enjoyed my younger years and went kind of wild (getting rid of everything I was being held back, getting it out of my system for once) at a much later age. Is this normal?

Your inner child is thanking you💜
Have fun and don't dwell no longer
Thank you. Yeah it was about time to have fun.
My exwife and her sister both turned into irresponsible teenagers when they hit 40
I think most people need a social life early on so they don't later on feel they've missed out so much.
Seems like legit reasons to let guys run train on you now. Good times
I'm not sleeping around though. I found out I'm a natural demisexual woman and I have no drive for casual sex not even drunk. However, I've enjoyed these hang-outs and drinks.
I've enjoyed becoming more popular, having a more social life and being close to the center of attention.
