Question

Im thinking about moving away from home and moving into an apartment, but the problem Im having is that Ive never been by myself before and that Im feeling somewhat uncomfortable even thinking about it,Im aware of cost and all that I just wondered if anyone had any first time exsperiance stories just to give me some ideas !!!

Answer 1

I would think about this for a couple of weeks and put things in perspective how will this affect your future financially? will you be living a paycheck to paycheck life style? Is it really that bad living at home? Will you be responsible enough to pay for your bills on time. I had this problem too but I relized its really not that bad to live at home.(even thought Im only 18)

Answer 2

i have lived away from my parents home since i was 17... but i've always had roommates... it wasnt until last year, when i was 25, that i FINALLY got my own place...

I was a lil' apprehensive @ first cuz I thought i might get lonely or bored, but let me tell you... Living alone is FRIGGIN AWSOME...!!

i havent been lonely or bored yet, and i feel MUCH more at peace when i come home, knowing that i can do whatever i want whenever i want, with no other people to worry about, in MY very own space...

If you can afford it financially, i say take the plunge...!!
DO IT...!! You wont regret it :)

Buena suerte!

Its always scarey to and uneasy to strikeout on your own. But you have to do it someday. My advice is make sure you know what you are getting into. Not only paying your own bills but doing everything else for yourself. Cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc. But what might help is to get a pet. Knowing that you have someone waiting for you at home will make you feel better.

Answer 4

Go for it! You can always move back "home" if needed. If you can't afford to live on your own, maybe get roommates?

Answer 5

Get a place with a washer and dryer...laundromats are the pits.
