Have you changed significantly between 20 and 30? How so?

Absolutely. I became more mature and independent. I became more educated and aware of the world I lived in. I became a better listener and realized that I don't know everything. I realized that the entire world doesn't revolve around me and it's better to think with the bigger head rather than the smaller head. Further, I saw how other people live in abject poverty through my experience in the military. Finally, I realized that most people that act big or get caught up in the latest trends usually do it as a compensation factor.

I feel that my 20s were just an extension of my teenage years. I was pretty immature and rebellious. I learned a lot in my 20s especially at work. I had a lot of different jobs and a lot of stress. I was frequently thrown in at the deep end. Looking back I can see I've benefited from the experience though. I was quite an arrogant young man and I would have had an easier time if I'd listened to and learned from more experienced people.

Since age 30 I've started to feel more like I imagine an adult should feel - wiser and reasonably at peace with myself.

Good question. I am 28 and I am so different now to when I was 20. I have experienced a lot more of life and it's such a cliche, but I feel like I am calmer, wiser and more thoughtful. I actually think getting older is exciting, because of all the things you learn along the way. I wish wish wish I knew what I do now when I was 20. I would tell myself to stop worrying so much what other people thought, to follow my passion, to love with an open heart, to be joyful and not care about eating too much chocolate.

particular I fairly have. whilst i became 20, i became fairly naive, might cry on the dumbest issues, and could no longer administration my thoughts. i might have foughtabitch over my guy...and now... i'm 31. i'm a mom. i've got been with the comparable guy for 11 years, and the place I do all i will to maintain him fascinated, if he needs to depart, if he does not choose to be with me-i do no longer choose to be with him, and if it is composed of that, he extra helpful no longer say shiz if I flow on, too. It takes the two somewhat some hormonal imbalance, or very lots of rigidity to make me cry. i'm lots extra desirable than I ever thought i could be. Plus i'm approximately 3 sizes smaller than i became whilst i became 20.

Yes and no... sometimes my life has gone backwards instead of forwards, but that's life. My ideas and opinions and outlooks have changed though.

Actually I have changed the most at 35 - im a late bloomer lol. I care less for what people say and watch more what they do.. big reality check.. Also I realize i have less patience for stupidity in my life..

Good question.

True psychological adulthood takes place in the later part of the 20's , so yes.

It's a bit difficult to describe , but priorities change.

I went from right of center to left, politically. I stopped worrying so much about what other people think of me and only concern myself about the opinion of people I respect. I decided that I don't believe in any creator sky-daddy being (and more importantly, I don't care who knows it.) I discovered that any friendships I had that were extremely high-maintenance all the time were not worth the aggravation, and let myself drift from those friends. Finally, I realized that my parents actually DO know what they are talking about most of the time.

Deffinately, Wrinkles for one. Wobbly bits more wobbly. Alot more confident about who i am. Generally alot more happier in myself. Now that im 33 cant wait till i hit 40.

I had children between those ages, so I'm more maternal.

Everything else is pretty much the same.

I grew up and learned how I could really mess things up then.
