85 Adult Problems Nobody Prepared You For

Jeez, i thought he meant that they still like to have fun.....

Don't focus on the scars. They are not so much imperfections as signs of healing. Worry instead about any open wounds, because those are the ones that fester.

Old souls and bodies of their scars :p

Sad way to look things

You're not deep, Lara!

Not all of us.

Battle scars

damn.

These are the worst, there are so many of them and they were the one who are contagious. :/

Yess! I feel so guilty throwing any food out, but a lot of food is impossible to buy and keep in-date in one-person portions..

You can still cook as if you're cooking for four or five and then portion it up and freeze it with a lot of things. I even have to do that with bread when I buy it because I don't eat it fast enough. The biggest problem is fresh fruit.

Do you know who's famous saying that is? :) (that last sentence of yours)

Fun fact, you dont need things.

Not if you live in a region where "good" (salary) still isn't enough to make the rent every month. I live in the Bay Area, where average rent on a 1-bedroom is well over $2000/mo. Try affording that on a less-than-great salary; even with decent money management, it's still tough.

Yip. Go read Mr Money Moustache.

It's not always possible to change jobs. I used to work as a graphic designer; my dream job. Then things went wrong, I had to give up my apartment and move out of the city and now I'm stuck as a receptionist in a one horse town. I want to die too.

I agree with you, but like others said there can be circumstances that prevent an easy switch. I soo struggle with this! But for me its not my company its my line of work. But it's what I majored it, and it supports us while my husband has struggled to find work for a while. But the work itself is tedious, taxing, and makes me feel like I'm wasting my life away. But I'm kinda stuck for now! Eventually I hope I can make a change.

Changing jobs is not easy nowadays. If you are lucky enough to find a permanent job it is a good idea to keep that job even though you would not like it. Bad workplace is much better than being unemployed. I have spent most of my adulthood unemployed and I am also now unemployed.

Unfortunately there are lots of s****y jobs out there these days.

School is different. You have a bunch of breaks, you can half a*s your way and do okay enough, you don't face the fear of being kicked out (unless you go really, really out of line), it's a much shorter period of time, when you don't do so well, people try to find out why and help you instead of firing you, you can skip a lot for no real reason without any real consequences... University varies a lot for each person, and I don't know how it is in the US, but no everybody went to college.

I dont hate my job, but I hate waking up early in the morning, and going to sleep early..

Sometimes it's the people that make you miserable at work, sometimes it's the work. If you are THAT miserable, you have to change your situation, or you will have really wasted your life. Finding a job that gives you satisfaction can take a long, long time. Don't stop looking until you find it.

I felt the same way about school and work. Finally diagnosed with depression to add to the physical problems. Relieved when I was fired for being ill.

Just think of all the things you could do if you didn't have to work. Money is time.

don't take this so seriously, geez.

I did that too :)

Loll me too. An active dirty mind :P

hey what are friends for?

Don't give up on those friends. If you have patience, they will return to you after the chaos and challenges of having very young children passes. It takes a while, for me it was about 10-15 years, but now they are returning, older and wiser.

Don't get me wrong, if they want to have kids, that's their choice and I'll be happy for them. And I know, people change, their interests&schedules change, we all have different incomes and lifestyle choices,...

Your parents gave great advice Marilyn. Though my REAL (few) friendships are with people older than me, except for 1. I connect better to older people due to having had more life lessons than most people my age.

I want to be your friend! My mama also always said to have a wide variety of people in your circle, just to make things more interesting (and more Love is more Love - always better!)

Expert advice :)
