I finished my degree in Software Engineering, I'm 28, and I've never kissed a girl.

I'm in a bit of a somber mood, it's been about 14 months since I graduated, and I finally was able to find a job today.<br><br>Looking back, there are so many things that I would change in my life if I could. However, I know I can't change anything, and I just have to accept my life for what it is.<br><br>I started my degree when I was 19, and after 4 years, I still wasn't done. At 23, I had to take a year off because my depression became so bad that I couldn't do anything.<br><br>I was in counseling for over 5 years, and I still didn't feel like I was getting better. <br><br>Even after taking my second break in my early 20s, I still wasn't able to get my degree until I was 27.<br><br>I feel like I made so many mistakes and I know I made so many wrong decisions, and I regret so many of them.<br><br>In my whole life, I've never had a real girlfriend, I've never dated anyone, and I've never been in a relationship.<br><br>I have exactly 2 friends.<br><br>I still live with my parents, but I'm planning on moving out now that I have a job.<br><br>I feel like I know what I did wrong, or where I went wrong. I know how to avoid those same mistakes in the future.<br><br>But I still wish I could change something in my past.<br><br>Or, I wish I could be a child again and start a new life.<br><br>I know that I can't.<br><br>I'm not sad or depressed, but it just feels like I've wasted so many years of my life.<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>Edit:<br><br>Thank you all for the kind words and support. I didn't expect so many people to respond to what I wrote.<br><br>I'm really trying to think about what I can do to make my life better. I'm not saying this because I'm looking for advice or input, I just want you all to know that I'm doing my best to look at my life and be honest with myself.<br><br>I've been feeling a little down all day today, but it's nothing major. I'm just going to keep moving forward and hopefully, my life will get better.<br><br>Some of you have said that I'm about to start my life and everything is going to be okay, and I hope that's true.<br><br>I just want to be happy.<br><br>Edit 2: <br>I've gotten a lot of comments about "You're 28, this is your first job? Why did it take you so long to find a job?"<br><br>It took me 14 months AFTER I graduated. I have a very specialized degree, and I'm being very selective about the jobs I apply for. It's not always easy to find a job in your preferred field.<br><br>I've been working since I was 15, and I worked in retail, customer service, and even as an intern.
