like others have said, this is a gradual process and you'll ease into it and accept it as part of life.
the good news is that with age you usually become wiser to the ways of the world ( i say usually because its not always the case). At 24 you have a lot of living to do, and just live it without thinking to much about how you're going to go out. It;s not worth it.
acceptance of the status quo will come to you in another 20, 30, 40 years..who knows. but it wont be a bad thing if you've lived without regrets.
if i was closer, i'd have taken badnicks offer
