the older I get, the more I realize my parents were just winging it – with the world falling apart around them, millenials realized this at a much earlier age and coined the term «adulting» to cover for the lack of milestones – milestones that have been ripped away from us (owning a car, owning a house, having a family) – other than paying bills and paying taxes, we no longer have any indicator that we’ve passed into adulthood, we are collectively just acting like we have a clue about what’s happening

I wish when I became an adult the other adults in my life would have explained that you don't actually feel like a grown up, you just sort of feel like a kid pretending to be an adult, and hoping everything works out.

Adulthood is just a child, a stack of credit card bills, and health issues in a trench coat.
