I'm definitely older than you, I have a steady job, I exercise regularly, I have a social life, I'm writing my own independant stuff for my career, and I have an education.

Don't worry about still being a Sonic-Fan-Character creator. Still being part of the community isn't what defines if you've grown up or have a life or whatever. If it's something that dictates almost or all of your time, then sure that'd be a problem, but that can go for anything.

No need to worry. This is the age of the nerds and fandoms. There are more people now around you that share your interests from all ages than in many years before.
