8 Things All Guys Should Stop Doing by Age 30
Jun 23, 2017 8:19 AM
Congratulations! You’ve made it to your dirty thirties. But now that you’re soldiering your way toward middle age, quite a few young man behaviors just don’t cut it anymore. From endangering to downright embarrassing, here’s what you need to leave behind.
1. Eating Fast Food: Yeah, we know that that Big Mac can taste delicious and that the dollar menu is super tempting when you’re on a tight budget. But a tasty, inexpensive meal isn’t that tough to throw together.
2. Smoking: It looked cool and rebellious when you were 18 but now you seriously have to stamp out this stinky, unhealthy and expensive habit. Not only can cigarettes make you smell like an ashtray and discolor your teeth, but they’re also one of the leading causes of heart and lung disease.
3. Playing Video Games: Granted, games are quite diverse nowadays with the explosion of small indie publishers and smartphone apps. But there’s still no excuse for being hunched in front of a console for days at a time because you’re obligated to kill a specific number of orcs. You won’t make any progress IRL if your priorities lie in a world that only exists on a server.
4. Living in Your Parents’ Basement: Dude, grow up.
5. Binge Drinking: Before you get all whiny, we’re not telling you to quit drinking entirely. In fact, some studies have proven that drinking wine or beer in moderation can actually be good for your health. But regular heavy alcohol consumption can qualify as a chronic illness, and that’s no way to live
6. Being Politically Clueless: We live in a time when your voice really does matter. Beyond that, the further you go professionally and the more you expand your horizons, the more you’ll be expected to converse like an actual adult who understands the world.
7. Not Owning a Good Belt and Wallet: Lose the duct tape wallet and nylon belt and invest in high-quality leather goods. Not only will you look more grown up, but these items will last you for years.
8. Ghosting Women: Love in the time of Tinder may help introduce you to a ton of awesome ladies. But you’re not going to be interested in every one that you meet. Instead of ghosting on the poor girl, man up and be honest if you’re not digging her.
