It's true, some people who are 40 are absolute dipshits, and some 20 year olds have it all together. And some of those younger people grow up to be 40 year old dipshits.

It all depends on what happens the ensuing years. Some go get their hearts broken and acquire different sets of motivation. Some never encounter a mature relationship and create warped senses of what a relationship means.

At the least, if the OPer hasn't really had any relationships, it might as well start now. But there's a reason for the song, "Hey 19".
