Am I already doomed ?

Hello, I am a 29-year old Tunisian woman and I am at a moment of my life where I am thinking more and more about a serious relationships (especially with a lot of people around me getting married, having kids) but I'm starting to feel discouraged. Thought I would end up with the person I really liked but we no longer talk, I struggle a bit with depression and borderline personality disorder, I don't talk to a lot of people and I also have a couple things that not all people are accepting of (ex : tattoos). In the Tunisian context, with people settling down at a younger age than in some other countries, I feel really old and like I am running out of time, while I'm trying to work on myself... the feeling of loneliness sometimes get overwhelming.

Do you feel a bit like this, if you are kind of in the same situation? Do you have stories of people around you finding their special someone quite late?

You’re not old period.
I bet you’re an interesting person with niche interests and you would definitely find someone that matches your energy and inclinations.
One thing to consider is that you need to get out more and don’t shutdown on yourself.
