No matter how much you try to deny this painful matter, time passes without you noticing and you are not getting younger and if you have already crossed the age of 25, there is a fair chance that you have already managed to adopt some adult traits that were not there before and how to say it gently, you are starting to resemble your parents a little.
So yes, we all think this will not happen to us, but if you also find yourself sighing every time you sit down or stand up, having conversations with friends about the weather and how it used to be better here, preferring to stay home with a cup of tea instead of going out to get drunk or feeling that you need a nap at 10 in the morning, this is definitely a red flag for you.
Here are 21 signs that you are becoming an adult.
You no longer choose the cheapest bottle of wine on the supermarket shelf.
And you are not embarrassed to spend a few extra bucks even on your toilet paper.
You run the washing machine even though you still have clean underwear in the closet.
Your desire to live in a clean house outweighs your hatred of the cleaning action itself.
You finish a night out at a friend’s wedding with an alcohol repertoire limited to a glass of wine and two shots, one of which you spilled without the friends noticing, even though you do not even drive. And that is without mentioning your embarrassing dance moves.
When friends come over to your house, you offer them real food instead of snacks.
You lose the ability to feel that you have food remnants on your face at the end of a meal.
You spend thousands of shekels on practical electrical appliances like a mixer or bread maker, and you are completely happy with your purchases.
You wait impatiently and excitedly for dead evenings when you can stay home and do nothing.
Going out on Friday night is one of the things you hate the most.
You eat a vegetable salad because you really want to eat a vegetable salad.
Teenagers sound too loud to you, and you cannot function properly when they are around.
You find yourself overly excited about objects like candles, decorative pillows, pots, and so on.
The chance of finding a letter in the mailbox that was not received from a body demanding money from you or from the body that keeps your money is extremely rare.
You are able to like a friend’s engagement photo without experiencing an existential crisis.
You make strange sighing sounds every time you sit down or stand up.
You reach a number higher than 5 at any given moment when you try to calculate the amount of tasks currently sitting on your head.
Sometimes you feel adult and smart, but most of the time you feel like a child thrown into the adult world.
You drive only in the right lane.
You do not recognize 70 percent of the songs playing on the radio, and in general, you much prefer listening to talk on the radio.
You can do whatever you want, whenever you want, but you know it will be a bad decision, and it is better to get out of bed and go to work because it is a waste of vacation days.
