Could You Be In A Relationship With Someone Who Still Lived With Their Parents?

Question

Peanut38 · Accepted Answer

I don't know how I'd feel in the future, but at my current age I wouldn't mind. There's a lot of reasons why someone might still live with their parents, and many are completely reasonable.
For me it would depend on whether the person is able to act independently or not. I wouldn't want to date a person in their 20s who needs permission from their parents before doing literally anything.
To clarify, this doesn't include being financially independent. I know plenty of students my age and older who still rely on their parents' support, and it's completely normal.

Depends on the circumstances. If they're there because they lack the determination to get out in their own, no probably not. But if they're there because shit happens in life, I can understand that.

No, living on your own for at least a few years is a must for me at this point.

There's a lot of life experience that comes along with managing on your own. It's not something one can usually get when living with parents, and I'm not about to take a step back in my life for someone else.

There's enough people around that I'm sure I'll find someone with similar life experiences to date.

It depends why they live with their parents. If they're still in education, live in a very expensive area and can't afford to move out themselves att or have fallen on hard times or come from a culture where living with one's parents is more of a norm I'd not see too much of an issue with that. If they're lazy and just see it as a cheap hotel and refuse to grow up that's an incredible turn off.

Well, more people live back home now than during the Great Depression. That's going to be the case when a shithole, falling apart house sells for half a million because of the housing bubble.

It's not reasonable to expect someone to have saved $300,000 - $500,000 for a house that five or six years ago would have been in the 100k to 200k range. Expecting to buy a half a million dollar house on $7 an hour. Not going to happen.

Yes, but it depends on what they do. If they have work and share responsibilities, fine with me. If they are the breadwinner - totally fine. If they are a slack - we won't be in a relationship.

WhitneySnow · Answer

I voted C. Everyone in my age group still lives with their parents. But if I were older and living out on my own I’d probably want my partner to do the same thing.

Sure, I know plenty of single guys that easily make over 6 figures (USD) and are still living at home because they refuse to be alone elsewhere.

No, not unless their parents owned a chocolate factory.. Then I might make an exception.

Abilb · Answer

If their parents don't have problem with my clothes or me hanging out at night than sure. Also give us privacy

I could, doesn't matter to me whether they live there or not. Eventually they'll move out. I'll have my place to live and they can visit whenever

My boyfriend and I still live with our parents and they still accept the two of us being together. As long as you are honest with the people you trust, that's what matters.

Better_off_here · Answer

though it may make some things more difficult, i guess depending on how old they are i would do it. as long as they are mature in many other ways it is what matters mostly.

@aphrodite801 To be honest, I'd rather be a bachelor than date a responsible woman who still lives with their parents.
