Where are you at in your life stage?
I blinked and here I am, mid/late thirties!
How's your life?
It’s a bit less social than I’d like. I moved here for grad school 3 years ago and have a couple really great friends but I definitely feel a bit lonely.
What helps you keep your sanity?
Diving at the aquarium and fostering animals from the humane society.
What is most important to you right now?
Being less consumed by work and more consumed by friendships.
Anything you recently found interesting?
The oldest ski artifact dates back to 6,000 BC.

Where are you at in your life stage?
I am enjoying my late forties and am finally comfortable in my skin. Most of my adult life was invested in my career, but I want to shift my focus to meaningful connections and community.
How's your life?
Great! I was part of the tech layoffs you've probably read about, and honestly, it was a blessing. I hated that job. I'm using this year to upskill and shift into something new.
What helps you keep your sanity?
I like taking my doggo for walks and working out. I also love to cook and meal prep, so I spend time researching recipes and tinkering.
What is most important to you right now?
Finding community. I'm an introvert, so making friends is doubly hard. I feel energized to put myself out there and to see what I'm missing.
Anything you recently found interesting?
Dogs aren't den animals, as it turns out, which raises questions about the validity of crate training. If your dog likes his crate, awesome! But if he doesn't, it's not because he lacks an instinct.

I’m excited for you and the year ahead! There’s such beauty in leaving something you hated and transforming life into something you love.

Where are you at in your life stage?
I'm nearing retirement but I don't feel old. I'm still interested in learning new things and am perpetually curious. It's easy to sit around and do nothing and I do that sometimes...but I'm trying to break out of being too complacent.
How's your life?
I am a very lucky man. Good career, good relationships, living in a great home near the beach. What's to complain about?
What helps you keep your sanity?
Physical exercise. It used to be creative pursuits, but hiking, kayaking, pickleball, etc., etc., seem to be what really interests me.
What is most important to you right now?
Continuing to grow.
Anything you recently found interesting?
We went to see the whales in Guerrero Negro, Baja California, Mexico. The whales come right up to the small boats to interact with humans. It's pretty mind blowing
I'm checking yes on group matches below though I tend to prefer one on one interactions.

Where are you at in your life stage?
27 years old, living with my girlfriend and cat. Moved to the US about 4 years ago, California about a year and have been working and learning a ton. I feel at peace but sometimes it gets lonely.
How's your life?
Pretty good. Lots of love and fun. There are so many new things to do and new people to meet, that keeps me going.
What helps you keep your sanity?
Playing guitar, rock climbing (bouldering), videogames, long Youtube videos, singing in the car.
What is most important to you right now?
Right now my girlfriend and our cat are the most important part of my life. They make my life better and encourage me to engage in new things. I got into plants to get my cat some catnip lol.
Anything you recently found interesting?
I'm always learning and researching random stuff. I've been binge watching "Forged in Fire" and it is wild the amount of people with forges at their houses.

Where are you at in your life stage?
Nearing the end of Act II and starting to think about the possibilities for Act III. Older than I should be, but the father of three talented teenagers. Comfortable with my work, not chasing or climbing anything. I like to think I have one more surprise left in me, though.
How's your life?
Keenly aware that the horizon has started edging closer. I'm mindful that I've had a a good run (so far!), and I'm not so foolish to be made ungrateful by the strike of the occasional arrow from the quiver of love, health, or money.
What helps you keep your sanity?
Music for one, movie/anime night with the kids for two, and spending most of Sunday outside working on the never ending stream of projects that come with a small orchard. And of course getting up before anyone else on Sunday and having a quiet cup of coffee while gazing out the window. Also, the sound of rain, and the distant horn of a train echoing far away in the night.
What is most important to you right now?
Kids! Yeah, I know, sounds trite, but it's a wild ride, and there's nothing like the feeling when you do something right. Not entirely unrelated, but being an older dad, maintaining health is key to keeping up with them.
Anything you recently found interesting?
I've known about rejection therapy for years, but recently found a you-tuber (jia jiang) who set out to be rejected 100 times, often for asking for ridiculous things from complete strangers. Riding along (virtually) with him adds a whole new dimension to the process and helps inspire the viewer to be more open to challenging themselves in social situations.

Where are you at in your life stage?
I’m settling down. I’ve moved around a lot in the last 10 years. Moving back to San Diego last year just felt right. By settling down, I mean I’m planting roots here in SD and don’t plan on moving away anytime soon. I’m single and just enjoying my life right now
How's your life?
It’s great! I’m generally happy and the healthiest I’ve ever been. My work challenges me enough to where it is still satisfying and I am able to make time to do the things that I love. I have a few close friends here in SD but realize that new connections wouldn’t be a bad thing.
What helps you keep your sanity?
I have a routine that helps keep my mood in check. It involves work, some form of physical activity (tennis, pickleball, volleyball) 5-6x a week, meal prep 1x a week, and small goals to check off along the way personally and professionally. Also my dog, he’s the one that told me to get a life.
What is most important to you right now?
Right now I’m prioritizing my health. Ive ditched the late night, party, going out scene for a more physically active, endorphin-inducing lifestyle. I have close friends out of town that I hang out with occasionally, but being back in San Diego has opened up doors for me to explore new hobbies and maybe new connections as well.
Anything you recently found interesting?
San Diego sure does rain a lot more than I remember…

The rain the last two years have been unusual! The timing of the rain this year so far, to coincidentally fall on the weekends, has been really odd as well. It’s a soothing change, but definitely makes me so appreciative of beautiful and sunny days.

Where are you at in your life stage?
Trying to enjoy my youth before I need to start planning for kids. After the pandemic lock down, I feel like I lost a lot of time so the last few years has been a lot of trips, new experiences and hobbies.
How's your life?
I call it the boring middle but honestly I think I'm at the best place in my life right now. I enjoy my job and I have work life balance to be able to travel and have time to work out or meet up with friends after work so I can't really complain. I do think about aspirations sometimes of starting my own business or making a huge change like moving overseas but maybe it can still happen later?
What helps you keep your sanity?
My dog :D eating amazing food! Therapy , more self care,just started learning how to meditate. Learning how to appreciate the small things in life
What is most important to you right now?
My physical and mental health. Everything started getting sore and cracking after I turned 30 T.T
Anything you recently found interesting?
Recently started doing pottery and pickleball!
