Crunchyrunchy Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 In a dating standpoint, how old is too old for a S/O to be living with their parents? late twenties to early 30's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CamelKnight Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Considering K-Drama's I would say it never get's old. Seeing as many in K-Drama's are staying with their (wealthy...) parents for ages. In the real world however, it really depends on the situation. These days kids stay with their parents a lot longer due to costs of living and the cost of buying or renting a house/apartment. These costs seem to have skyrocketed in the past 10-20 years, making it difficult to live on your own. I know plenty of people who stuck with their parents untill at least their mid twenties. There are some who leave earlier (study at uni away from home) and some who stick around longer (ill parent). I don't think there's a correct age to leave the house anymore. But if you want to date, some privacy would be nice. In that case, it's more convenient to have your own place. Also, men don't mind picking up their girlfriend from their parents' home, but as a man I would feel inadequate (either financially or well... my cooking would be real bad/I would be lazy as hell) if I wasn't living on my own while dating. That independancy is more important to women than to men because most people feel that men need to take care of their wife and kids. Not having their own place means they're unable to care for themselves. That is, unless there's a good reason like ill parents or something like that.

silent.dragon Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Only up to the point when you get married. You and your partner will want/need the comfort and privacy. Other than that, do not be ashamed to be living with your parents. I'm quite old and still with them due to financial weakness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roasty Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 You are never too old. Especially if you come from an ethic background, it's the norm to stay with the parents till you are married off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfdragon Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 There is a difference between supporting your parents and getting supported by your parents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal.happiness Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 I'm 29 and I moved out this past year I don't think there's an exact age because living expenses can be costly. If your S/O is living with his parents and contributing to the household in some form financially then I think it's OK but if the S/O is just living there rent free in mid-20's and up I think it isn't right.

judysimmons Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Thanks for this post. As you know parents give many things to their children and are directly involved in child development. No matter how old you are, you are still a child to them. Like, last month my friend bought a new home for his parents near his neighborhood. Before buying home for his parents, he consulted with the real estate agent in Florida and he discussed all the personal issue. The attorney has suggested that if you already own a home and you need space, the best solution is to buy a home near your neighborhood. So, taking responsibilities and sharing the living cost with your parents is not a bad idea. //MOD EDIT removed blatant advertising // Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
