Getting older pretty much sucks. You notice things about your body changing and not for the best. You start behaving differently too. If you are nearing the age of 35 or have already passed it, you will totally relate to these posts. They are scary true.
These Are All Things A Person Should Do By The Time They Reach The Age Of 35
Cutlery
This can happen before the age of 35, especially if you have a family. You will remember moving into your first home and purchasing matching pieces, but then you will find that one odd piece and wonder where the heck it came from. To top that off, you never throw it out either.
Dread
Once you hit 35, you start to realize that you have lived half of your life already. You start thinking about your failures or how you don't quite have your life together like other people at that age.
Plastic Bags
We don't really know about having a cabinet full of plastic bags. You will definitely have plastic bags full of other plastic bags, though. You are more likely to have a cabinet full of old Tupperware containers that do not have matching lids or tons of lids with no containers or vice versa.
Lunch
When you hit your mid-30s, you become more aware of what and how you eat. Instead of overindulging yourself, you will find that you become more health conscientious. That is not a bad thing.
Clothes
Not only will you have a favorite pair of jeans and a set of shirts that you wear most frequently, you will also have a closet full of other clothes that you only wear when all of those standard clothes have not been washed. And, half of that closet full of clothes are clothes that you will probably never wear again.
Books
Even though we live in a digital age, you will still hold tightly onto all of those old books. They are the biggest pain in the butt to pack and unpack with each of your moves, but that does not make you want to get rid of them.
Socks
Let's be honest about this one. If you have you do your own laundry, at any adult age, you have a bag of socks. In my house, we have a whole small hamper dedicated to unmatched socks. What do you have?
Lipsticks
In our defense, at this age, we have a hard time throwing out anything that we spent our money on even if we never use it. Lipsticks are just a small part of that.
Not True
As fun as this sounds, this only happens in the movies. The analogy using the premise for the movie IT is still funny, though.
Old Friends
This totally happens. Unless they are people that you consistently spend time with, chances are you are really not going to reignite old friendships. It is cool to catch up when you cross paths, but the likelihood of actually hanging out is very small.
Periods
Being a woman sucks, but it only gets worse as we get older. This specific scenario is one of the most annoying things to happen to our bodies once we near those middle-aged years.
Cables
If you do not have a box, you have a drawer or a bag. Either way, you have a stash of cables that you have no idea if they even go to anything you own anymore.
