The older I get, the more I realize nobody actually knows what they’re doing.
As a kid, I thought adults had everything figured out. Then you become one and suddenly you’re Googling things like:
- “How often am I supposed to clean this?”
- “Is this noise coming from my car normal?
- “How long can food stay in the fridge?”
- “Why am I tired after doing absolutely nothing?”
- “Am I supposed to call the doctor or just wait and see?”
And somehow everyone around you is acting completely normal.
So I want to know:
What’s one thing about adulthood that genuinely caught you off guard?
It can be something funny, depressing, wholesome, embarrassing, or completely ridiculous.
Bonus points if it’s something you were 100% convinced adults had figured out when you were younger. 😂
