Is being an adult what you thought it was when you were a kid?

I thought I would get to stay up late and eat all of the marshmallows out of the cereal without getting in trouble, which I do.

No it's not. I thought I'd be buying all the Hot Wheels I wanted, but instead I spend all my money on rent and utilities.

DAMNED THIS ADULTING CRAP!!!

@calicuz go get ya some Hot Wheels. I thought I'd have an entire room devoted to action figures, but naw

@calicuz If I had a dream like that as a kid, even if I lost it as an adult, I would still go through with it just to make my child self proud. See it as a ritual.

I don’t know. I grew up around some pretty terrible adults, so I didn’t hope for much 😅 I think it’s turning out better than I expected though.

@WhateverWorks well that's awesome

Let me tell you a little story... *Looks at you with glassed over eyes*
I imagined being a pimp and a stone cold killer, living in an apartment a bit more rundown than the one I'm living in right now. Going to my privately owned club and making affairs. Actually I told my ex about this and she loved it. She told me that if I were to kill a person she would be loyal to me. This was the road I was going down, until I realized what path my God wanted me to go down. So you can imagine, I'm having quite the difficult time adjusting to the christian lifestyle. Almost all things I'm doing are christian, but my mindset... I'm working hard on it.

So no, it's not quite what I imagined it to be. Perhaps I was delusional on purpose because I hated life, I won't deny that.

Being an adult is knowing why eating all the marshmallows is a bad idea 🤮

As a kid I figured I’d be dead by now really. I was a very morbid kid.
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
@Captainjackass I thought I'd die by 27, so same really!

I always knew that when I was an adult, I would have a cool collection of action figures and nobody could make me get rid of them.
MyNameIsHurl · 41-45, F
@LordShadowfire I'm really jealous about this
