<human>: At age 32, I'm starting to realize how quickly life does go by, and how many of my dreams and goals will not come true as I had hoped. It's a whirlwind time to see most of my friends get married, have kids, and settle down to a life. Others are living abroad with their significant other. 

While I have been in a relationship for a long time, we are both rather quiet people who don't socialize a whole lot except with each other, and the idea of having a wedding doesn't feel right. We do have friends but nothing serious. Life is a bit boring.

A few months ago I was also laid off from a job I had for a long time, and started a new one that doesn't feel right either.

There is a part of me that feels like my life isn't how i wanted it to be. But when I try to imagine what id rather have, I can't. I don't know if my expectations are too high, if I don't take enough chances, or simply not putting myself out there enough. My heart and mind are a bit closed off too; my boyfriend is a closed off person and I feel as though I've adjusted my personality to fit him which it's ultimately my choice. I used to be free sprited, and don't want to lose this or the chance to feel truly happy and free. It has been so long I wonder if it's just what happens when you get older.

Right now life feels like I'm trapped with no hope of true happiness, like things are just downhill from here.

<bot>: How do you add zest back into your life? Has anyone done something fairly outlandish-like quit a job and move to a different state or country-and come out better for it?
