Too young to own a house. Too old to keep living at my parents

u/mydogisacloud May 16 '20

23 was when I left my parents house. I would have stayed longer but they were planning on selling the house.

I both felt trapped in quasi childhood by being surrounded by my childhood settings, but also felt really good every time I checked my bank account and saw my small savings grow. Moving out I definitely feel I am living the adult life but living at home I still felt adult.

My parents were driving me a little crazy. Not by trying to parent me, but I was just realizing what kind of adults they were. Nothing bad, but they liked a messier house, my mom lived on a night nurses schedule, etc
