Pls Guys, When Is It Right To Start Living On Your Own? by melzee: 11:00pm On May 05, 2017
Hi guys, I live in Edo state with my parents after graduation, I have searched for jobs for about two years before I secure a job, I get about hundred thousand (N100k) monthly as salary, I have worked for over a year and two months, and within that time frame that I have worked, I Cather for my immediate family, though my dad has his own building with tenants and have a little business fetching him something, mum have a business, I have only one of my younger sister in school and she's in her 300L, most of all, I am the eldest and on my early 30s

Furthermore, I need my own privacy, I have secretly finished buying all the stuff I need in a one bedroom apartment (I mean a room, parlor, kitchen and toilet), in other words, I am ready to park out,

Finally, here my fear lies, I want to tell my parent that am moving out, I hope am not making the wrong decision,? I need your advice if it's d right time after a year and some months in office, and my parents sound awful when I come up with a joke dat am moving out soon, they don't feel happy about it, they keep expecting me to remain in their house which am not comfortable with, I have to move on with my life, .....pls again, I am not perfect, did I make d wrong decision by moving out of my parents house for good? moreover, when do u think is right or wrong to start living on your own??

Age doesn't matter in this case but your ability to take d right decision at d right time. Parents always wish they can live with their children forever because of d love they have for them.
If you wish to make it big in Life, it is better you move on and always remember to get in touch with them to show them you miss & love them.

If you're beginning to feel the need to move out and you have the means to do so,don't hesitate to move. It's only Natural for your parents to feel sad but deep down they'll be happy because it shows their son is becoming a man. They'll only feel sad for a short time, they'll be fine.

If you feel it's the right time for you to move, then do so.
The important thing is not to rent a house you can't afford.

You are over 30 and should be in the frame of mind of starting your own family and that can not be done living with your parents. You are already earning a stable income, you need to be on your own.

For Kenyans, when a 19 year old is earning about N35K monthly na to pack out of parents house remain.

For a man, it should be the next step once you start working. Get your own place and move out.

For a woman, when you get married.

Mr, I believe you are old enough to make independent decisions regarding your life. Why should you still ve deliberating on such at your age, when men even at 21 are already out of their parents house.

Whenever your parent become saddened ans ask you why you want to live, kindly ask them when they left their own parents house and why.

Thanks.

Bros methinks it's time you leave. Leaving will help you take greater challenges and appreciate life the more.

When you are with them, you will be limited in thoughts. Please leave so that your sister can have a brother to visit.

Let your next thread on nairaland have the title "I have moved out"

Dude..if you don't move out into your own place how are you going to prove to your parents that you're old enough and nature to cater for yourself? Mind you,what I meant by "cater for yourself" is not referring to your financial ability rather I'm referring to your emotional, psychological and spiritual well-being.

You need to move out of your comfort zone so that you can discover who and what you really are. Trust me your parents are also looking ahead to you moving out but they won't broach the idea with you at first because as the saying goes.."a grown up is still viewed as a child in a parent's sight"

So, man up and take that step bro..and you'll d glad you did.
