When did you first feel like "I'm an adult now"?

birth of my son...even though I was way past 30 my parents said to me...now you are an adult...

When I moved out of home and got my first place.

When I started to pay my mother's bills with my own money.

When I had to to to the doctors appointment alone

Now this is adult life

I am just awkward with doctors, when they look at me and wait for me to tell them why am I there

LMAOOO I've never been to a doctor alone...I just stopped going to pediatricians two years ago

Whenever they ask if I have any health problems or allergies I'm like "huh? What? What did you say?"

When I paid my first utility bill. I think I was 21. I used to have a pay as you go mobile phone plan but then I took out a monthly contract under my own name and everything.

I still can't feel it enough lol

I still don't really feel like an adult tbh and I wonder if I ever will.

But the moment I knew I now had to act like one was after I graduated. I was 18 and, like most parents I suppose, my parents expected me to start working full-time to help support the family, so that's what I did. I got my first real job and in that same year moved out of my parent's house and started paying rent and everything out of my own pocket as well as paying some of my parent's bills.

I've since become fairly proficient at acting like an adult I think.

You know, I'm almost 40 and I STILL don't feel like an adult. As long as I have to work under someone, I always feel like a child of sorts.

when i bought groceries and toilet paper for the first time lmao

I don't know, like I never felt like a child (even when I was one) but I've never had realisation of 'oh I'm an adult now' besides turning the legal age of one.

But if I were to judge by adult things, like paying bills, looking after children and such I started being an adult a good 20 years ago.

The first time I bought medicine for myself with my own money.

I'm 20 and live at home with my family because it's our cultural norm so it's not weird or anything. People say I'm mature but tbh inside I still feel like I'm about 10 years old.

When I realized I had to start paying for my own health insurance and shit

But also when I realized I’m the only single-no kid friend in my friend groups lol.

Bitch I am Peter Pan

Never going to get old
