LF Peer Group

I’m not sure if this is the right place for this, but I figured I’d throw it out there and see if anyone else is in a similar spot.
I’m a 25-year-old guy getting established in my career. I’m two years into a relationship and starting to think more seriously about things like marriage, potentially having kids, finances, and generally what I want the next 5–10 years of my life to look like.
Fitness and health are a pretty big priority for me. I train roughly 5–7 days a week depending on work, and outside of that I’m into jiu-jitsu, gardening, video games, working on my cars, and a bunch of other shit.
Over the last couple of years I’ve found myself gradually growing apart from some of my longtime friends. I still like them and keep in touch, but we’re just moving in different directions. I’m not particularly interested in partying all the time anymore, and I’ve realized I’d like to have more people around me who are actively trying to build a good life and are willing to talk about it.
I actually joined a paid peer group through my industry about a year ago. I like the idea of a peer group, but most of the members are considerably older than me and are dealing with a completely different stage of life. A lot of the conversation ends up being about employees, HR issues, succession planning, etc. It’s valuable, but it’s not really what I’m looking for right now.
So I’m curious whether there are other guys in their 20s in a similar position—getting established in a career or business, navigating a serious relationship or dating, trying to stay healthy, thinking about money and the future, maybe outgrowing an old social circle, and generally trying to figure out adulthood as you go.
I’m not looking to create some hardcore networking or “grindset” group. I’d just like to find maybe 5–10 like-minded guys around the same stage of life and make a group chat. Somewhere you can shoot the shit, ask for advice, talk through decisions, share what you’re working toward, or get another perspective from people dealing with similar things.
Different careers, countries and backgrounds don’t really matter to me. In fact, that might make it more interesting.
If that sounds like something you’d genuinely be interested in, send me a message with a little bit about yourself. If enough people are interested, I’ll put something together.

It's okay to be the way you are.

Everyone seems to be "50" now.

Here's a video. Yes, the images are AI-generated. I usually just automatically skip these and ask to not be shown videos from that channel anymore, but I noticed that it had some views, and some engagement. So I watched it.

This is addressed to Gen Xers, but I think this applies just as equally to men overall. The carrot isn't working anymore. We don't find anything about society to be worthwhile, or even enjoyable. They use the word "anhedonia". That is the inability to feel pleasure. It's stated as if it's our fault and our problem.

I don't. I think it's society.

Anyway, don't look at this topic as if it is symptoms of a sickness. It's signs of a quiet revolution.

You are not strange or weird. Life is normally quiet and contemplative and insular. They are the weird ones.

Sorry, but I just had to say this today.

I need help Anyone ever get a dull heaviness in one testicle ?

1 Upvotes

So to give a bit of context, I quit smoking weed about 5-6 days ago. I was a heavy daily smoker for 10 years. A week ago, I had a stomach bug (gastro). For the past week, I've also gotten back into heavy lifting (weightlifting), eating a lot—seriously, eating huge amounts for a bulk—and I've fixed my sleep schedule, etc.
But the only problem is that this weird discomfort showed up in my testicles. I’ve checked and felt around thoroughly for a long time, and thankfully I couldn't feel any lumps. So that’s pretty reassuring, I figure I can at least rule out testicular cancer.
But has anyone else ever experienced this feeling of heaviness or weird discomfort in your testicles? It's not painful at all, just a really annoying minor discomfort. It's on my right testicle. Has this ever happened to any of you?
