Answer 1

ASA
It’s really hard if you are staying alone and specially if its your first time staying far from your family.

When I came first time in UAE I was not able to sleep for 6 months and was always crying.
But only one thing gave me courage that I have to support my family as I am the elder one and after our father death the full responsibility was on my shoulder.

Then slowly slowly I become use too but still I am missing my MOTHER, Sisters and brothers too much. Now I call one my brother here with me so it’s better the last seven years.


Just only one thing I am prying always may Allah(SWT) keep all of us in his Rahama specially the girls who are far from there families as I have seen the girls spoiling them self’s to get only to make the money.

I really face a lot of problems in getting the job but Allhamdullah I never lose my faith and always ask help from Allah and he always helps me Allhamdullah.

So all who are far from the families I would like to request you please keep your faith on Allah SWT struggle hard and don’t chose the wrong ways for earning money as in wrong ways you will definitely earn money very fast but you will lose your respect and your AKHRA

Please forgave me if I hurt some one with my wordings.

May Allah (SWT) forgave all of our sins & keeps us all in his Rahama (Ameen)

Answer 2

besides having to make all of the payments by yourself-which may be the easy part you have to be "good" at living alone. Or find an apartment that will let you have a cat or dog? Many places will but,you may have to pay more to have them as they do destroy property. If you are a people person perhaps a two bedroom place with a room mate might work-be careful that their habits and yours don't conflict. If you are neat and they are messy they are getting the best end of the deal because you will probably be the one picking up but, after awhile that gets tedious and it may even make you angry. Not a happy feeling to come home to? SO your choices are important here! Someones word about how they are had best be looked into. Call a past room mate and see if they do help in the kitchen and such.

Answer 3

It really depends on your personality. I have lived in many situations in the past. I enjoyed living alone for a while but after a few months I became very, very lonely. Although I am not a particularly social person it was the comfort of having someone nearby that I needed. Also, financially I was able to afford it. You have a lot of control of finances, space and time if you live alone. If you are a strong, independent person, I would recommend it.

Answer 4

Living alone for the first time is usually very hard.
Unless you are independently wealthy, the financial strain can seem overwhelming at first.
Then there is the fact that you are alone, totally alone for the first time in your life. That was my personal nightmare. I got lonely and bored within the first week.
And for some, it is the first time that they have total freedom. No one to answer to, or to check up on you. Some young adults go a little wild and end up messing up.

Answer 5

It's easy in the sense that you have freedom, but it can be hard if you get lonely. Having a dog or cats can help with being alone too.

Answer 6

I have lived alone...and it was both easy in a lot of ways and hard in others.
EASY: could control expenses, decorate how you like, do things how and when you want, control who stays at your place, plenty of privacy. Generally be totally independant and control all aspects of your home.
HARD: Loneliness, no one to share expenses with, safety.

Good luck whatever you decide.

Answer 7

It can be easy. You can do or not do anything you want. If you leave wet towels on the bathroom floor no one is going to complain. Leave the sink full of dishes until you don't have any clean to eat from and nobody cares. Sooner or later though you'll have to clean up your mess. Be prepared to take care of things that fall apart unless you can call a landlord. All expenses are strictly yours.

Answer 8

Well, we cannot deny the fact, that living alone its so really hard,,,,,,but i guess thats only at first,,,but for me, it is the best to starting to be alone, because you can learn a lot, to be matured enough in mind, to be independent and to kyou know on how to work hard just with yourself alone..

Answer 9

IT IS WORTH LIVING ALONE
you will learn alot about yourself if you never have..

it is easier that you think it is if you beleve for a second that it might be hard...
you just need to make sure you get a place within your means... and it is a growing experience.. i say go for it

Answer 10

Easy in the sense that you clean after yourself and not anyone else's mess, and you know what is in the 'fridge will be there that night. Hard financially though.

Answer 11

Living alone... hard? never! You don't have to answer to anyone, you don't have to worry about waking anyone up, keeping the place the wrong way, being a slob or too neat. You are never wrong, but always right!
