yup. What are your stories?

HYS, COA clerk, Biglaw lit here. See no path to a sustainable career. And I just got dumped by an organic gf that I liked a lot because I'm in a hellish 5-month and counting stretch where I am at work all the time.

Same shit. Mountain of debt. Not interested in the girl I'm seeing beyond sex. Most friends live far away, and the ones who live nearby are married and having kids. Overworked. And winter is coming.

both. i never wanted to be a corporate drone. being inhouse barely even feels like being a lawyer, which is good in some ways but in other ways makes me feel like my life is more meaningless than ever. and then my personal life is in shambles too. the only thing i have going for me is my health.

When I was 20 years old, I said that I would kill myself if I had the kind of salary I have now.

Guess what, life ain't so bad. 20 year old strivers don't know shit.

Yeah, most people live on their $30k, $40k, $50k/year with their shitty kids, their debt, their shit cars, their crap houses and eat fast food and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches because that's what they can afford.

But yeah, when I was 20 I thought I'd be making more too. Still, I'm not confusing that with making anywhere near what most people make.

To be fair,

Let me break this to you gently, pumo: if you're posting on XO, statistically speaking you probably don't have to worry too hard about dealing with the stress of juggling a hot rich wife and a bunch of 19 year old mistresses.
