26 year old still living at home is that sad?
Answer:
many in your age group are nowdays living at home,,,, while working or in college,,,, the trend seems to be changing (as opposed to the times when at 18 you left home),,, i am sure you will find someone to date, just keep looking around,,, your not pathetic
more than 80% asians stay at their homes even after their twenties
As long as you are relatively independent at home then why not? fair enough, its difficult to have someone stay over when your parents are there but as long as you are doing something proactive for your future, ie saving for your own place or furthering your education, then you're not pathetic!!
Not sad at all. My sons have grown up and moved out of state. I miss seeing them daily. Now I see them only on special occasions, holiday time,etc. We never miss anything until it's gone sometimes.
my fiance's best friend is 26 and still lives at home. hes a cool guy, goes out with lots of girls, has tons of friends...good job, etc...i think theres a time that someone needs to move out but if your parents dont have a prob with it and youre still in school, i see no prob. just have some confidence in yourself and ull be just fine, especially if youre bettering yourself by getting an education!
Well at least your in school. Some people would say no but some don't mind. Do you work? Do help your parents out? These are things that other would look at. Or are you just living it up.
26 is not bad-especially since you are going to college. You know what is really sad? I know a 45 year old that never left home until his mother died. Yes there are women who would go out with you.
No I would not say you are sad just a person that likes the company of his parents. that is as long as you don't take advantage of them.and remember that it is their home.
pretty much yeah its sad... in sum or most cases people who are 26 are havin babies and junk not lookin for sumone to have a baby with! move!
You're not pathetic, many people live at home until they're finished with college.
I don't think its sad to be at home at 26 ... what I find sad is those who live at home like they're 5 year olds ... they do nothing to help around the house or be responsible for anything. I knew a guy who was over 30 his mom made his bed, did laundry, cleaned his bathroom, cooked and made his lunch for work ... he rarely if ever ran to the store to buy anything needed for the house (would ask his parents to run out immediately for things he needed like deodorant or what not) and didn't contribute because his parents said "it was ok" ... all that combined is sort of sad and not really adult like -
You're in college...that's not pathetic. If you had a career and a steady salary and still lived at home..that may fall into that category. Furthering your education is a legitimate reason for being under your parent's roof.
There's nothing wrong with living at home while you are still in college. How can you afford anything else?
its becoming very common now to still be at home,what with relationships breaking up,and acute housing shortage,in the uk anyway ,more and more will remain or return to home,if they are lucky
could be worse, atleast your in school.
Yes, you are pathetic. I worked hard and had my own home ready to move into the night I graduated. I like my privacy, also, our parents spend 18 years raising us, teaching us to be responsible, productive people in society. Don't you think you should respect them now? Give them their lives back? I mean come on! GROW UP!! You can go to college and hold down a job...What is WRONG with you?? Young people in this day & age have become so lax.
i would not say pathetic i would say lucky
Depends. Are you like my pathetic 26 yo brother who eats all my parents food, doesn't help pay any bills, leaves his dirty laundry everywhere while he spends all his time drinking and driving around with friends?
Then I'd say yeah, you're sad.
If you help your parents around the house, contribute financially and are actually DOING college instead of using it as an excuse to live at home without paying bills, then it's not that bad. I don't know how people look at it, I was out of the house at 17 for college. I know my brother doesn't date.
Your 26. Time to get out on your own and give the parents a break. You should have your own place by now. I would think it was strange if I was dating you and you still lived with mommy and daddy. Shows lack of independence that's for sure..Well I probably wouldn't start dating you in the first place if I knew you still lived at home. I had my own place when I was 19.
