At the age of twenty (and, sometimes, at thirty), each of us begins to understand that growing up is not about overcoming a certain age line, but a gradual process that mostly occurs in our heads and is reflected in our actions. In some, this process takes more time, in others it is less, someone walks alone along this path, someone with his other half, someone grows out of children's pants among relatives. However, all at the same time feel the light sadness of parting with childhood and the taste of bitterness due to the fact that time flew by too quickly. I suggest to plunge into the memories with our list of signs that you have finally matured.
1. You started calling parents more often to just chat, not ask for advice.
2. In your house there is a set of dishes with glasses and a full set of appliances that you use more and more.
3. You started to take care of pension contributions.
4. And you stopped emotionally buying everything that you liked in stores.
5. University years gradually cease to be the most vivid memory in life.
6. You replenish stocks of food before the refrigerator is completely empty.
7. You cannot remember when the last time you asked your parents for financial assistance.
8. You began to carefully read the treaties before putting your signature on them.
