Smacked in the Face at 28

When did I become a full-fledged adult? I was wavering on the line between youth and adulthood for a few years after graduating from college. I was still mistaken for being younger than I was, could wear all types of clothing without worrying about looking stupid, could hang out with the young crowd and not feel old, and sadly, I was still being hit on by adolescent boys with raging hormones who thought I was a hottie. All of a sudden, I realized that none of this stuff happens to me anymore. Yes, i'm still mistaken for being younger than I am, but that's not saying much being Asian and all. We ALL look younger than we are! As for clothing, I have officially stopped wearing certain clothes because they're too "young" for me. I walked into a store at a mall a few months ago and started browsing the racks. Almost instantly, I realized that if I put any item on in that store, I would look completely foolish. Short skirts, midriff baring tops, mini shorts, tee-shirts with cute little logos, you get the picture. Not only were these things young in style, they were also young in size. They were made for people who don't have any curves yet. I have hips goddammit! I held up a pair of shorts and saw that the entire pair would probably fit over one of my thighs. I walked out defeated with head hung low and met up with him to whine about my sudden revelation.
I think my 3 month stint of substitute teaching in a middle/high school also pushed me out of my youth. These kids, some of whom were much bigger than me, all thought of me as an authority figure. Even though I probably listened to the same music as they did and watched the same tv shows, I wasn't "cool" because I was *shiver* an adult. I even heard them refer to me as "that lady".
I had another first a few months ago while paying for something at the register. The boy behind the register thanked me for shopping at their store and then called me Ma'am. MA'AM! I'm not a ma'am, I'm a Miss! Or, so I thought. Oh how I winced in pain. Sadly, this happens more and more these days. I've also begun to feel old at clubs and bars that I used to frequent. Now I don't even bother going. I've begun looking for places that cater to the 30-somethings.
The biggest sign that I'm an adult now is that I actually own my condo and am getting married in August. Married! I'm going to have a husband. I'm going to be a wife. That's a mindf*cker if i've ever heard of one. Logically I know I'm an adult, I mean, I'm 28 for god's sake. There's a disconnect though, between what I know and what I feel. *sigh* Maybe when I hit menopause I'll finally accept my adulthood.
