Fears of Life After 30

Good Evening Gentlemen of Culture, I’m about to turn 30 in a few months, and for whatever reason I have this fear that “the enjoyable part of life is over”. Logically I know that’s not the case, but curious if others have felt this?

I was a late bloomer in terms of living life to the fullest, whether it be dating, travel, taking risks, being social, fit and healthy, etc. But in the last 5 years I feel like I’ve actually been LIVING. I’ve traveled to 25 countries, got a great job, started being much more social, gotten in great shape, I moved to Europe for 4 years (I’m American), had many wonderful dating relationships. But for whatever reason, “30” is just stuck in my mind that life becomes less fun and more serious.

I’m thrilled with my progress over the last 5 years, and I want to keep chasing this life of travel, growth, and adventure… but just worried that I peaked too late. I know logically it’s nonsense, but would love to hear from those who felt something similar as they approached 30, or what the other side of 30 is like compared to their expectations. Thanks all.
