Yeah, I'll be 40 in a week. I didn't feel like an 'adult' until I hit my 30s, but I certainly don't feel old now.

I thank everything that is holy that there was no Facebook or social media in my 20s. Nobody can prove a thing. 

You mean I was supposed to feel like an adult by now?  I must be doing something wrong.

Just remember kids life sucks then you die.

Y'know, I am glad my twenties are over. I established my career and am now in mid-stride. That was time consuming. Now, I can just take my career and life in stride. I like it. I am in my mid-30's and I love it. I am looking forward to my 40's. Mostly because I have disposable income and I can do what I want, when I want. Life is good.

The 40s are fine. I think I grew up when I was 23 -- that's when I got married. Got my first house at 26. Had my first kids at 29, though (twins -- their birthday was the day after mine). There's no real rush for any of those things, but the younger you are when you get your degree, the better. Getting a decent job when you're young helps so much when you get older. Though my husband changed careers in his 30s and did fine, so really, there's no rush on that either.

20? Aren't you too old to play games? You can always give them to me when you don't need them anymore.

The idea of becoming an adult is a strange feeling, many people my age have children, we are all getting jobs, some even have their own homes now.

Did anyone here share the same feelings? I'm not sure its scary or daunting that within 10 years, I may have my own family and people my age are now all "grown up", no longer children or teenagers but young men and women.

Time has flown by so quickly, I still remember some events when I was in nursery and primary school.

Was this just an elaborate ruse to get people to wish you happy birthday? o.O

At 24 I no longer care about birthdays or age really. Rather than pursue an ideal that doesn't appeal or suit you, you could always set your own goals and live by them.

I have no direction in life at the moment and I know I'm not going to find direction by imposing a range of demands on myself. You still have plenty of time to make idiotic mistakes that are embarrassingly funny.

Early 20s is a great time.

You're an adult but not yet bogged down by a lot of responsibilities. Make the most of it! It will be gone before you know it.

 Sorry if someone else has already posted this:

“Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.” - C.S. Lewis

Me too. I am going to turn 25 in less than a month.  Got the degree, but can't find a real job. :happy: I have something to fill the time, but it's little more than that. I live in terror of Sallie Mae and car breakdowns.  


The thing is though, at our last Christmas Party I told my coworkers to kill me if I was still there by my birthday... and given some of them wanted to kill me then...  Na only one really. 

[RedArmyShogun]

Funny you mention that volus..I'll be seeing you for your birthday..

[Giant ambush beetle]

24 here, and if this ''adult life''-thing is paying bills, being depressed and doing soul-crushing office work then I have caught a severe case of it.

I'll turn 25 in December but the "adult life" slapped me in the face last month when I graduated from college and was approved in my bar examination.

Now I'm trying to find a job. lol

[NeonFlux117]

being 20 is awful, you can't go out to the bars and clubs and get smashed and chase after tail, I mean 18 is kinda cool, cause like your becoming an adult and going off to college and getting out of you hometown type of mindset, but 20. Yeah it's such a lame year cause you can't do cool stuff yet so basically you stuck for about three years 18 to 21 where you're legally an adult, can be drafted into the military, sent to prison, smoke cigarettes and vote, but you can't drink and go to bars and stuff. Stupid.

21 is a great Bday, amazing. I can't remeber my 21st at all, but they tell me it was pretty legit. So you know, hang in there.
