Hey fellow 1980s babies! How’s your 30s going for ya?

34 years old here. Single since I was 21 (save for less than a handful of awkward dates), no kids and feeling like I'm in life's waiting room. I'm currently in the lower 100s on the list to be housed in Social Housing due to disabilities and honestly, it feels like the only thing keeping me sane these days. I'm aching to move out of my parents house and finally start living instead of just existing as version of me that's not my truest self.

It's taken a VERY long time to come to terms with it but I've come to realize that I'm gayer than I thought. The LBGTQI+ scene here is virtually nonexistent, though, so I've yet to truly explore than aspect of myself. It often feels like I'm just waiting impatiently for my life to start but for my own safety and mental wellness, it's for the best that I remain somewhat closeted for now.

Still, whenever I get out, I can only hope that things get better. My family are not exactly supportive of LBGTQI-related things so I do feel isolated but hey, at least there's Reddit...
