You would think with all the things adults take the time to tell you, they’d include some universal things about adulting that you really need to know. I’m not talking about budgeting suggestions, salary negotiation guidelines, or how to do laundry. You need some practical info. And I don’t know about you, but I like to have a heads-up on the gotchas that are coming my way.

So, here’s your heads-up on 10 Adulting Things No One Talks About (this post contains #s 4-7).

Even without a mortgage or student loan debt, there’s plenty to pay for. Rent, grocery food, restaurant food, coffee, drinks, travel, school, entertainment, clothing, shoes, medical insurance, dentistry, streaming services, electricity—and that with expenses associated with a pet, child, or significant other.

This one is getting better, but is still an issue. It seems the only ones who ignore the pressure to let work jump over healthy boundaries are people who don’t care if they advance at work. Those who want to grow their skillsets, develop their careers, and fatten their paychecks usually forego work-life balance and they’ll encourage/pressure you to do the same.

Surprise! You can be just as drawn in and dragged down by social media as you were at 16. You’ll think you’re more in control of it, but if you can’t spend time away from your phone and are affected by seeing people with what you don’t have, social media still has a strong hold on you. I’m sure you thought your parents were overreacting when they said you were too focused on your phone. Could they have been right?

So you think you’re a foodie? Well, maybe you are, but unless you’re also a bottomless pit of money and time, you won’t eat like a foodie for your entire adult life. At some point, you’ll be an intermittent foodie; the rest of the time, you’ll eat like regular people. As regular people, you will be positively sick of choosing what to eat by the time you’re 30. Having a kid or two makes the “sick of choosing” come even faster, because then you’re also keeping track of how much and when.
