I think its really easy when you're young and single to become completely self-obsessed. Which, in my opinion, is a big factor in the "quarter and mid-life crisis".
I don't want this to come off sounding negative towards people in their 20s and 30s -- I'm one of them! -- but I was kind of wondering about this. Reading the article it struck me how self-focused it sounded like most of the young people in the article were, and I wondered if maybe that was part of the reason they (we! my peers!) were having a crisis.
