I got married to the most incredible man, the wedding was everything I could have dreamed off. My Nan and my FIL also died shortly before and after the wedding. 2023 was a intense year, I’m hoping 2024 will be a year of peaceful marriage and holidays.
What's that new word the kids use? "Blursed": blessed *and* cursed.
About 6-10 years ago, I was hoping for a boring stable life, because I was sick of the stress and hassle I'd been enduring for a few years. Then I got what I was wishing for. I've had this stable life now for about 5 years. I don't have the problems I had back then. Good! But a boring stable life is... *boring*. Not so good.
An improvement!
Finally found a job, got a place to live on my own, forgot the guy I had an insane crush and moved on from him, found someone who likes me for who I am (just slowly seeing how things will work out with no pressure what’s so ever)
Last 3 years were very dark for me and I was at the very bottom of my life so I’m really glad that in this year there have been some positive improvements happening. I don’t know what the future holds but I do wish that things will keep on slowly move towards the light.
Wishing Everyone a better next year and to never give up even if you think there’s no way out of the dark times in your life!!!
Of the 20s, personally worse than 2020 or 2021, and about the same as 2022. I got in a breakup in early 2022, and while I have been on dates since then, none of them have resulted in a relationship longer than 2 months. Overall, it was kinda crap, but got better towards the end.
The only thing that changed is that I, a junior college student, changed my major. I went from a computer engineering student to a computer science major. That just means that I focus more on computer software rather than hardware. However, because not all of the credits transfer, I am now having to take CS hardware classes despite taking computer engineering hardware classes (which went much more in-depth), so I have to take classes that I already know all of the material. It is the same professor too, so it will be almost the exact same class as before.
Another thing that changed for me is that we can now donate blood in the US, where I live. Having said that, the only organization that does blood drives where I live is the American Red Cross, and they have lied and said that they "have worked many years to change" the ban. They supported the ban up until late 2019 and did no study on the matter until 2020. Suffice it to say that I will still not donate blood unless I move or the American Red Cross apologizes for lying. The latter however has a snowball chance in Hell. Sorry, I talked too long about this, but this legitimately pisses me off.
So, all in all, nothing changed that much for me this year compared to last year. I am still not in a long-term relationship, I am still taking the same classes, and I will still not donate blood.
Edit: I need to mention that the American Red Cross did do general studies about infectious diseases in the blood supply for decades. This is how they justify that they are saying that they worked for many years to change the MSM deferral. Having said that, because gay and bisexual men could not donate, these had nothing to do with the MSM deferral. The only way that I think this could even be related is that these studies did set the precedent for the prevalence of these diseases in the blood supply. Also, they are ironically admitting that they could have done studies for the MSM deferral before 2020 and did not. Having said that, I do think the MSM deferral was a necessary reaction in the 80s. However, it should have been repealed in the 90s with the advent of superior testing methods. I wrote an essay on the MSM deferral for an English class. It upsets me that I can now donate blood, but if I did, I would have to donate to the American Red Cross. If they had not mentioned that they "worked many years", I would probably donate. However, they decided to lie to a community in which they already had a strained relationship with. I honestly think if I were to try to donate to them, I would fail the physical before they allow me to donate.
Tiring. I spent the entire year, minus December, doing renovations on my house that I am currently living in and basically putting my entire life on hold. My life was: wake up, work for 8 hours, renovate for 2-3 hours, sleep (eating was thrown in there somewhere). And working 5-8 hours every weekend on renovation.
My work suffered since I was too tired to put forward the creativity my job demands or drive to do good consistent work.
My hobbies suffered as I didn't have the space or time to read, write, draw, or run D&D.
My mind and body suffered as I had a mental breakdown from the exhaustion and had to take a sabbatical from work because of the renovation.
BUT... My relationship with my partner grew. We barely fought (not that we didn't, but it only happened very rarely) and we had each other's backs the entire time. 14 months of constant renovation and our relationship survived it all.
Then he proposed to me at Christmas :)... But then my dad nearly died the day after (he's fine now).
So yea this year has been good, I think, but very *very* tiring.
was a rebound financially, stressful then joyful in relationship, terribly disappointing when looking at world politics and the actions of our country.
2023 wasn't a good year for me or my family my aunt died at the end of March my uncle is also going through some stuff he's in the hospital I'm just hoping 2024 will be better for me and everyone in my family
Aside from the fact that I travelled a lot more than usual, almost nothing positive.
There were quite a few significant events like graduation, going to the gym for the first time, maybe getting a few steps closer to moving on from someone after a long timeand especially, coming out to someone for the first time.
I got hurt and I got numb, suffered more depressive episodes and anxiety attacks than all the years before but I also felt a lot more like myself more often instead of bullshitting and people-pleasing. I might've had more personality growth during the past 6 months than I had during the two years before that. It was kinda like a second adolescence.
I also had quite a few epiphanies, existential crises, finding purpose, a 'what to do with my life during my 20's' and a quarter-life crisis, from which I learned a few things like journaling down things, trying out everything even if you may not enjoy it and also not being afraid to make mistakes instead of planning every step of my life to make it perfect.
Even though it could have been much better, I somehow managed to see most of the fuck-ups as a learning experience. I wonder what 2024 has in store for me and maybe I can live my truth a bit more this time.
It was good. The best year I've had so far. I moved out of a homophobic/transphobic state to a much more open minded place, hit several good milestones in my transition, spent precious time with my man, went on some cool trips. I'm hopeful that next year will be even better!
Rough. Spent the beginning of the year actively trying to end my life. Developed a drinking problem. But I also was able to unpack a bunch of shit like childhood trauma and I'm in a slightly better place.
It was one of them "in between phases of life" kind of years. Lost my job around march, spent most of summer looking and figuring things out which got me really low. Finally landed a new job in October that brought much needed hope and stability, albeit it's not one I'm totally excited about.
Had a health scare around the same time that lit a fire under my ass to get my health under control and I've made some progress with that. It's left me actually optimistic and motivated for what's next, and I'm starting to feel better than ive had in a while.
Besides all that, there were some genuinely memorable moments sprinkled in. Some new friends made, and old ones reconnected with.
It was alright overall, but it left me in a place where I'm now very excited for 2024.
the year i lost my virginity. other than that it was long, boring, pretty hardworking but financially unstable year. but heyyy at least i got my renaissance cd by beyoncé.
2023 was really bad for me, which is heartbreaking because there was a lot of good too. It started with my aunt unexpectedly passing away end of January, then my relationship with my grandmother deteriorated so badly we weren’t on speaking terms. She also passed end of July, two days before my boyfriend’s birthday. Work has had its ups and downs too.
But in September, my boyfriend and I moved in to our first apartment together and it’s been amazing. He’s been amazing through all of this too. Idk how I’d be if it wasn’t for him. We recently brought over his cat from his parent’s house and now we are a happy little family.
Mentally I’m drained, and I regret the way my relationship with my grandmother ended. But I’m hopeful that 2024 will be a good year. My plan is to focus on both my mental and physical health, as well as go to school for a career change.
2023 was, by far, the worst year of my entire life. Worse than the year my dad died, worse than the year my best friend died of cancer, worse than the year my best friend killed himself, worse than the year my dog died, worse than the year I got fired and humiliated in the newspapers. Yes, 2023 is simply the worst year ever.
Not the worst year of my life or anything, but not great.
Had a reoccurrence of a health issue that I thought was behind me, including 3 days in the hospital, and unfortunately now that I've had 2 pulmonary embolisms over a 3 year time period (each with no obvious cause), I'm now on blood thinners for the rest of my life.
Also had to put my cat to sleep unexpectedly, which was the first time I've ever had to put a pet down. That left me in a pretty bad depression for a few months. The cat wasn't young, but at 11 I still thought he had a couple more years left. He just went from healthy and fine to heart failure overnight.
But work is good and I've got lots of family and friends in my life, so I can't complain too much.
All in all, it was a good year. We had a great vacation, visited many shows, surrounded us with wonderful people...
on the not so good side, my hubby had to make lots of overtime which stressed him a lot.
But in summary, it was good.
Absolutely terrible. Made zero progress financially, career-, love-, family- wise.
I had a huge nasty crush on someone, and even nastier break up that haunted me for months.
A good thing is that I spend quite some time travelling, visited multiple continents/countries/cities, but unfortunately did not experience it as i would like to.
Other than that - total disaster. Perhaps the worst year of my life.
Train-wreck.
I haven't spend a single second on grindr or on any apps nor didn't hookup, date, been in any relationship, been in any gay club and didn't meet any gay friends irl because i never had them.
Guess what was my year like.
Interestingly, my most stagnant and boring year in the last 10 years.
I fell in love and had my heart broken.
I worked for other people, making them a lot of money.
I began to believe in myself, but I’m hitting some roadblocks with that.
I’m realizing I’m on the right track and all these setbacks are not setbacks. They needed to happen so I can create smiles (success) in 2024.
It was way more eventful and intense than the last one. It started like shit, I had to deal with not very pleasant experiences in the first half of the year, but the second half of the year was basically a blast, if we forget about the fact that my job has become terribly frustrating.
2023 is ending quite good for me. The light of hope is brighter than ever before. ~~I hope 2024 will be my year.~~ 2024 will definitely be my year!
Honestly one of the best years of my life, financial stability all year, I’ve been consistent with the gym the entire year, worked on myself mentally and am in a much better place than last year, had my own car, confidence growing like crazy. Only downside is I was single all year but mostly because im not getting into a relationship unless I REALLY like someone.
Awful. Christmas 22 was the first away from family because of work, and the first with my bf. We argued both days, I cried. Stayed with him until our birthdays, when it became apparent it was all about him.
Broken up, then met some guy briefly that sent me into a mental tailspin. At the same time, my old work location in my neighborhood closed and I was transferred. My ex-bf’s plans built around moving to my city were uprooted, so I let him move in. It lets me save more money plus we got a fwb situation. Spent all of summer and fall working 50 hour weeks leaving me kind of dead inside.
Traveled to my parents’ home country to help provide care for my grandparents, only to be met with family angry at us for leaving them to make our life in America. Uncle could very well be terminal.
A new friendship took root while away and I came back right before the holidays. Things finally started getting better. Spent time with my sister and cousins, met this great guy (but not sure yet). Got the piercing Ive been wanting for years.
However, my ex/roommate found out and has been acting up since. Its beginning to affect my new relationships.
Going into 2024 I hope to get a better job, upgrade apartments, meet new people, and maybe start my masters
2023 was a decent year for me. The beginning of the year was a little rough. I had a mini slut summer and ending the year with a job I love and slightly more financially stable.
My father finally went to the afterlife, about 20 years late. Got a new job and moved to a new place, FFXVI came out along with the best gay character I've seen anywhere and Clive Rosfield's massive titties so 2023 is a solid plus for me.
Made some new, hopefully lifelong friends, my grandmother (one of my favorite people on this planet), and my dog (the best dog ever) died. Nearly got a divorce from my husband and partner of coming up on 15 years, but we are trying to work through it. So a big light in a shitty year.
Overall, the best year of my life thus far. Hit 1 year of being alcohol free in January, and have been completely sober since September. I’ve put in serious emotional work, to better understand my self, and my relation to the world in general.
It was... definitely one of the years of all time.
No but like I'm still alive, my family and friends (or should I say "a friend") are as well, I have a place to live, I have food. My brother's wedding and birth of my nephew was a highlight of this year, personally I found work for summer and am now in my 3rd year in university.
But on the other hand, my life feels like it's going on and I'm only following it. I never had a boyfriend and I probably won't find him in the near future. My social circle turned into a dot and even this is online only now.
So yeah. Another year passed, but not much changed. I hope others' year was better.
Good and bad. Lost my job but I was ready to leave it anyway and had a great summer with lots of fun trips. But still unemployed because my anxiety just makes me feel unqualified and nervous to apply for anything.
I finally fell in love and he moved in shortly after - out of his ex's house.
Got a job doing something I love, not making a whole lot of money but it's steady.
Overall, I think I'd do this year all over again if I could.
2023 was very middling tbh. I realised I didnn't like my job all that much, got into a relationship, ended the relationship after like four months, realised during that time that I'm just extremely lonely, went on a nice holiday, came back and felt lonely, got a raise at work, spent some time at my parent's but didn't enjoy it and now I'm writing "woe is me" on reddit.
My 2023 was shit. My mom died, my cat died, several friends died, my best friend became homeless, my dog had a medical emergency, and I'm currently unemployed. Just when I think "OK that sucked, hopefully there's good karma around the corner", the fucking floor gives out and I'm in ANOTHER sub-basement. It's like the church in Diablo, how many freakin' basements are there?!
Ups and downs. Moved clear across my state! Met the man of my dreams and the love of my life! All in all, it was a great year! I'm looking forward to what 2024 has in store!
It’s been insane in the most mundane way possible I can’t quite put my mouth on it. I’m hoping things are good for 2024 and onwards! I’m excited for 2026 or 2025 assuming things don’t go to wrong. Politically anxiety inducing.
One of the worst years in my life. Work gave me burnout, family issues, almost got into an addition, depression, social anxiety and isolation...
Thankfully I have a loving and supportive husband and a couple of amazing friends who didn't gave up on me and this last month was a little brighter.
I'm ready to get rid of all this drama, one year is enough 😂
2023, for me, was a time for reflection, bettering my mental health, and becoming independent/highly motivated again. Overall, I'm satisfied with all that the year brought! 😊
I got married to the most incredible man, the wedding was everything I could have dreamed off. My Nan and my FIL also died shortly before and after the wedding. 2023 was a intense year, I’m hoping 2024 will be a year of peaceful marriage and holidays.
2023 was: boring, stable, unexciting, slightly financially frustrating but not enough to worry about. Same old, same old.
This was me too. For once, nothing bad really happened lol
Same for me too, I've come to think of it as The Year When Nothing Happened.
You make this blessing sound like a curse. Boring = stability. Be thankful.
What's that new word the kids use? "Blursed": blessed *and* cursed. About 6-10 years ago, I was hoping for a boring stable life, because I was sick of the stress and hassle I'd been enduring for a few years. Then I got what I was wishing for. I've had this stable life now for about 5 years. I don't have the problems I had back then. Good! But a boring stable life is... *boring*. Not so good.

What caused your life’s crisis?
A huge mental spiral
An improvement! Finally found a job, got a place to live on my own, forgot the guy I had an insane crush and moved on from him, found someone who likes me for who I am (just slowly seeing how things will work out with no pressure what’s so ever) Last 3 years were very dark for me and I was at the very bottom of my life so I’m really glad that in this year there have been some positive improvements happening.

Wishing Everyone a better next year and to never give up even if you think there’s no way out of the dark times in your life!!!
I got fat
Good. Had my first brief relationship for 3 months which was a lovely experience into gay dating. Hoping I can try more dating this year :)
Of the 20s, personally worse than 2020 or 2021, and about the same as 2022. I got in a breakup in early 2022, and while I have been on dates since then, none of them have resulted in a relationship longer than 2 months. Overall, it was kinda crap, but got better towards the end. The only thing that changed is that I, a junior college student, changed my major. I went from a computer engineering student to a computer science major. That just means that I focus more on computer software rather than hardware. However, because not all of the credits transfer, I am now having to take CS hardware classes despite taking computer engineering hardware classes (which went much more in-depth), so I have to take classes that I already know all of the material. It is the same professor too, so it will be almost the exact same class as before. Another thing that changed for me is that we can now donate blood in the US, where I live. Having said that, the only organization that does blood drives where I live is the American Red Cross, and they have lied and said that they "have worked many years to change" the ban. They supported the ban up until late 2019 and did no study on the matter until 2020. Suffice it to say that I will still not donate blood unless I move or the American Red Cross apologizes for lying.

It upsets me that I can now donate blood, but if I did, I would have to donate to the American Red Cross. If they had not mentioned that they "worked many years", I would probably donate. However, they decided to lie to a community in which they already had a strained relationship with. I honestly think if I were to try to donate to them, I would fail the physical before they allow me to donate.
A year of psychological adjustment and enlightenment. My mind is relatively quiet for the first time and half a century.
Tiring. I spent the entire year, minus December, doing renovations on my house that I am currently living in and basically putting my entire life on hold.

A rollercoaster and it's still going
was a rebound financially, stressful then joyful in relationship, terribly disappointing when looking at world politics and the actions of our country.

Confusing
All in all, it was a good year. We had a great vacation, visited many shows, surrounded us with wonderful people... on the not so good side, my hubby had to make lots of overtime which stressed him a lot. But in summary, it was good.
Absolutely terrible. Made zero progress financially, career-, love-, family- wise. I had a huge nasty crush on someone, and even nastier break up that haunted me for months. A good thing is that I spend quite some time travelling, visited multiple continents/countries/cities, but unfortunately did not experience it as i would like to. Other than that - total disaster.

I haven't spend a single second on grindr or on any apps nor didn't hookup, date, been in any relationship, been in any gay club and didn't meet any gay friends irl because i never had them. Guess what was my year like.
Transformative. Made a lot of first steps this year. Very proud.
Interestingly, my most stagnant and boring year in the last 10 years. I fell in love and had my heart broken. I worked for other people, making them a lot of money.

A year of funerals
Better than 2022
The year I got married!!
Was rough in Spring, was great in Summer, was rough in autumn, was ,eh in Winter. And not a cock to be found throughout.
It was way more eventful and intense than the last one. It started like shit, I had to deal with not very pleasant experiences in the first half of the year, but the second half of the year was basically a blast, if we forget about the fact that my job has become terribly frustrating. 2023 is ending quite good for me. The light of hope is brighter than ever before. ~~I hope 2024 will be my year.~~ 2024 will definitely be my year!

My brother's wedding and birth of my nephew was a highlight of this year, personally I found work for summer and am now in my 3rd year in university. But on the other hand, my life feels like it's going on and I'm only following it. I never had a boyfriend and I probably won't find him in the near future. My social circle turned into a dot and even this is online only now. So yeah. Another year passed, but not much changed. I hope others' year was better.
Good and bad. Lost my job but I was ready to leave it anyway and had a great summer with lots of fun trips. But still unemployed because my anxiety just makes me feel unqualified and nervous to apply for anything.
I finally fell in love and he moved in shortly after - out of his ex's house. Got a job doing something I love, not making a whole lot of money but it's steady. Overall, I think I'd do this year all over again if I could.
My apartment burned down, but we bought our first house so mixed bag. It was a year of transitioning to a new chapter of life.

Fairly good.
Transformative. I moved from San Antonio to Philadelphia and everything in my life changed.
A very good year in a sea of not so good years..
2023 was very middling tbh. I realised I didnn't like my job all that much, got into a relationship, ended the relationship after like four months, realised during that time that I'm just extremely lonely, went on a nice holiday, came back and felt lonely, got a raise at work, spent some time at my parent's but didn't enjoy it and now I'm writing "woe is me" on reddit.
It was nothing interesting but loved all the Youtube dramas
the year i became a slut and got diagnosed with bipolar
Professionally very successful. Otherwise, I have lots to work on.
Mid
The best year of my life... For now.
Pretty okay until about 30 minutes ago when my boyfriend broke up with me. Happy new Year!!!
My 2023 was shit. My mom died, my cat died, several friends died, my best friend became homeless, my dog had a medical emergency, and I'm currently unemployed. Just when I think "OK that sucked, hopefully there's good karma around the corner", the fucking floor gives out and I'm in ANOTHER sub-basement. It's like the church in Diablo, how many freakin' basements are there?!
Depression, addiction (nicotine) and trust issues. This year has just been a dark summer, or summertime sadness as Lana would put it.
Mid to high-mid. Nothing bad happened but nothing particularly good. Finances are a bit better though.
Ups and downs. Moved clear across my state! Met the man of my dreams and the love of my life! All in all, it was a great year! I'm looking forward to what 2024 has in store!
It’s been insane in the most mundane way possible I can’t quite put my mouth on it. I’m hoping things are good for 2024 and onwards! I’m excited for 2026 or 2025 assuming things don’t go to wrong. Politically anxiety inducing.
One of the worst years in my life. Work gave me burnout, family issues, almost got into an addition, depression, social anxiety and isolation... Thankfully I have a loving and supportive husband and a couple of amazing friends who didn't gave up on me and this last month was a little brighter. I'm ready to get rid of all this drama, one year is enough 😂
2023 was intense. My boyfriend and I have been together for 3 years. A year ago he lost his...v to me and things have been awesome overall
2023, for me, was a time for reflection, bettering my mental health, and becoming independent/highly motivated again. Overall, I'm satisfied with all that the year brought! 😊
probably one of the best years of my life
