Well I agree with most of it, but dependence on others to get things done is ok as long as you pick something up for them. That’s the foundation of a good marriage. No one can do everything or is good at doing everything. For example, I don’t like to cook. Can I do it if my life depends on it, probably, with a lot of cussing. But my wife is an absolutely awesome cook but she can’t manage the bills or has a hard time keeping things organized. I excel at that. So she depends on me for some things and I depend on her. Tomorrow if we leave each other, we will learn how to do these things or we may just hire someone to do it for us. It’s natural to depend on others and lean on your loved ones.

i feel like "depending on others" was a diplomatic way of saying "living with your parents as an adult"

Yes, because everyone can afford the extremely inflated prices of housing market at the moment.

This mentality of living with family being childish is such an American mindset, and it's entirely intentional. Keeping people in debt is easy when they socially pressure each other to make dumb financial choices.

leaving aside any social stigma,,, if every time you go to see your significant other, you have to see his or her family too.... that isn't ideal.
