I met some men between the ages of 27 - 32 still living at home & receiving an allowance from their parents. I ran into them at a bar, they were very good looking men, seemed educated, and have decent jobs, yet were boasting about their allowance. When I asked them about their living arrangements, they saw nothing wrong with it & kept saying "would you turn away free money"?
I don't know what to make of this!

OK, so I'm not 27-32 but I am 25 still living with my parents. There a numerous reason why people live with their parents till their older. Mine is a different circumstance, my father developed cancer and I moved home to help but that's another story in it self. Life and living are EXPENSIVE!! Apartments, gas, electricity, cable, and numerous other things attribute to your cost of living. I moved back home and I am saving for my future. Yes it sucks living with my parents again but I am sucking my pride up helping them and saving money. I don't receive an allowance from them, but my mother makes dinners and occasionally takes us out. I am educated and I have a decent job, I know how living with your parents sounds/looks when you meet someone new. Don't judge a book by it's cover. If they are nice guys and give them a chance and see with their story is!

Make of this that this man is unwilling to make a home for himself and you are only a means for an orgasm. Would you date a 16 year old with a really nice job? Well, that's what you're doing.
A 32-year-old with an allowance is . . . psychotic. That is a momma's boy right there, and the fact that the man is proud of it?! Ugh. I say find some other place to find a mate. A man who is looking for "free money" will be perfectly happy to take it from you, too.
This? Abnormal in a bad way.

Some families are just closer than others. If you think about the problem associated with urban sprawl, all of the congestion, the demand for housing, etc. . . Then we should be grateful that some guys still live at home. Also it is an indicator that if you were to get married that they might help ease over some of the financial problems that so many newly weds seem to have.

Your answer charismatic and living with parents-these two keys will indicate a guy who is totally worthless if he's past the age of 20, and any guy who accepts an allowance past the age of five for not working for his parents needs a kick in the rear to get him a job.

Im sorry, but I can not take any guy seriously if he's that age and still living at home....allowance or not. That's rediculous. What is he waiting for?? A sign from above to move and become a responsible person?? As educated and as charming as they can be, that usually signals a red flag, and I wouldnt talk to them anymore....

I live at home still cause my mum makes really nice schnitzels and pickels.

Being 27-32, having jobs, and still accepting money from their parents? I wouldn't want ANYTHING to do with them. I think it's disrespectful to accept money from their parents at that age if they clearly aren't in need.

I would think that if it was a group of men, it was a ploy to make attractive women engage in conversation with them. I would hate to think that these deadbeats are still living on mom and dad. And I certainly hope you aren't considering dating one of these guys. Attractive or not, living at home or not, they can't be very intelligent if they have to make up stuff to get women to talk to them.

I'll tell you what to make of it - you were talking to 2 liars - they are living at home because they have no job and they are not educated. You can look, but don't touch (or you'll be where their allowance comes from!)
