Your twenties can be tough...
It seems that there is so much to work out, so much that we are supposed to know, when really, if we are honest, the days of sitting on the sofa watching Playdays, Rainbow or Teletubbies if your a bit younger didn't seem like that long ago..... No, just me then...
Anyway below I have listed some essential criteria so that you can be sure you have hit your "Being in your twenties crisis:
1. The constant need to compare your life with all friends, family, strangers on the internet, the girl that lived down the road 10 years ago etc.
Why do we do it to ourselves? Everyones like takes different turns, everyone has their own unique set of circumstances. We need to just stop!
2. The regularity of being asked the most boring questions in the world.
"Have you met anyone yet?"
"When do you think you'll move in together?"
"When are you getting engaged?"
"When are you getting married?"
"When are you having children."
This is one of the most annoying things ever. It seems like no matter what stage you are at people always love to ask the same ******* questions! I for one find this the most boring topic to talk about. Yes all of these things are amazing, but people are really so nosey and judgemental. The constant pressure to keep giving the same answers to these same questions week in week out is draining. Don't worry Karen from payroll, when I'm pregnant you will be the first to know!
Wondering how the hell you are ever going to afford to move out.
Finding your first grey hair.....right at the front....on a Monday morning....bad times :(
Regularly attempting to devise a plan where you reach instant levels of fame and fortune so that you can get a deposit. X Factor? The Voice? (Unfortunately I have no talent so the closest I get is calling in to the radio to guess Whose on Heart...)
Looking back at old photos of yourself thinking how much better you looked, even with the metallic blue eyeshadow and concealer lips.
Getting paid, thinking you can go and spend all the money in Topshop before realising you have bills to pay - council tax you little charmer.
Spending large amounts of time with you friends trying to work out if your boyfriend is going to propose this year.
Wondering if you should be planning to have a baby yet, when you still feel about 12 yourself.
Finding your first wrinkle in between you eyebrows and analysing it from every angle.
Realising that everyone is pretending and no one really knows what their doing....
