This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I’m in my mid twenties and I can’t drive a car, I have a crappy job, and I still live with my parents.

Can you hold someone's hand while they rant about their shitty day? Can you pack a lunch, hail an Uber or find a bus for a day at the park, and rub someone's feet while you both sit in the sun? Can you carry a tune or tell a joke? Can you show up on time for a date?

You'd be surprised how many people can't. Lots of people have shitty jobs in their mid twenties. Lots of people still live with their parents because rent is so obscene. You're not alone.

I feel like what I can bring to a relationship isn’t enough though.

Meet other people. Show them a good time. Let them be the judge. Don't hang this on yourself beforehand
