Adulting Is Hard
My friend who was pushing 40 had literally never paid a bill before. She had gone from living with her parents, to living in a dorm, to living with her parents again until she got married.
Then she got divorced and was living on her own for the first time. I got a text from her asking if my power was out too…then she realized it was just her. Her reasoning stunned me.
Her excuse was she never paid attention to the bills because she thought they were “receipts” and that the cost was included in her rent.
Her water was cut off a couple of weeks later, and we had to talk about that, too.
