What makes you feel like a true adult?

When a teenager calls me ma’am

 

[StillRain]

My first parent/teacher interview was when it really hit me. I remember thinking whoa… this is what it feels like.

Scheduling with the roof thatcher.. Need to get a new thatched roof.

 

[Chillygirl]

Opening up a new tube of Biofreeze.

I only laugh cause I know the feeling!

Having my daughter ask me to look over the lease she was about to sign for her first apartment. Then helping her shop for essentials. I suddenly remembered my mom doing that with me. I’m the grown up now.

Our daughter in college is getting her first off campus apartment. Same here.

Having accumulated a collection of sex toys so vast, I could use one every day from now until Monday and never use the same one twice!

Hey stranger!!

Good question! I guess having to sign my own medical forms makes me feel like an adult, just as an example. I often don't feel like an adult, thanks to my C-PTSD from childhood trauma.

LoL @ myself. I think I only have 1. (naughty dice). I guess I lead a dull boring life.

Putting what’s right before what’s fun.

Going to the store and buying tampax for my wife without wigging out about it...

Being a store cashier and selling tampons and condoms and ExLax without thinking anything about it.

 

[Taegul]

The I.R.S.

And I fucking hate them for it.

 

[AveryElle]

How excited I am after I deep cleaned the fridge.

 

[amber1312]

I have never felt like an adult. Even in my mid forties now I still expect the day I’ll get called out as a fraud.

 

[Mattentive]

Hearing the word toy and not picturing Lego.

 

[RoanMtn]

That's a good question. Sometimes I think I am an Earthbound extraterrestrial as I simply can't understand/relate most of the bullshit so called adults engage in.

When I shell out nearly $7,000 in annual property tax

Only $7000? Lucky duck.

 

[Seadog777]

Having the crooked fucking US Government STEAL....I mean "tax" me dry.

What makes you feel like you have your life together? That you are truly adulting and doing it well?

For me it’s a well organized fridge and a clean kitchen sink. A freshly scrubbed sink that smells like bleach makes me feel like I’m winning at life.

Bleach definitely has a winning in life smell. Last night I loved soft, cool sheets after hard, hot work out in the sun.

Lately I’ve taken a liking to store brand Ginger Ale. I’ve always associated ginger ale with old people who have given up on life, kids who are pretending to drink alcohol, or a kid with an upset stomach whose mom gives them flat ginger ale and crackers.

I don’t know if I’m ginger deficient or simply maturing, but I suddenly don’t hate the taste of it like I used to.

When I drink ginger ale I start to feel like I want to call AARP on speaker phone and yell that I cant hear them, while looking out the window at the neighbors and thinking ‘Now, what are they doing?’

buying more concert tickets. Because why not.
