Most people just become older versions of their young adult selves

Those boomers and gen Xers who “act their age” were probably squares or moving like grown men already by the time they were 20. I don’t get why people expect a 32 year old in 2022 to suddenly start acting like dated stereotypes of what someone in their 30s is supposed to be like

Most people don't change personality-wise after high-school tbh.

I used to think as college/university, your twenties, being this final time-period where you become your eventual self. The self that you really like to be and feel comfortable with.

But tbh this already happens in high-school, beyond a few rare exceptions. By age 18, 90% of people are already who they will always be their entire life.

Unironically, changing your looks is easier than changing your personality. Intelligence is the hardest thing to change imo.
