What Age Did You Leave Home?

I was 21 when I felt mammy and pappy's place.

Stayed in a house with about eight other people of different nationalities before meeting a burd and moving in with her.

 

I've not left yet, hoping to leave by the time I'm 27 (I'm 25 - says it under my avatar)

Want to save a decent deposit rather than have high mortgage payments

 

19.

Shared a flat with my mates.

Moved back in with my parents when we got evicted.

Moved back out a few months later - this time with the bird.

17 years later or so I'm still living with her.

 

I have no interest in renting either

 

What a ****e thread.

 

That'll be your next one. Favourite ****e? Hard, firm, Soft or runny?

 

Yeah I was 21 too, sharing with a couple of fellow students, smoking too much weed n that and not going in to uni much. Them were the days...

 

18 when I flew the coop. Was back at home from 21 - 25 then flew the nest again when ah got married.

 

Get two mates in the same situation.

Move into a two bedroom flat - turn the living room into one guy's room. A family's rent divided by 3 = piece of piss.

You'll probably only spend on food and rent what you give your maw in digs anyway (and if your maw is charging you piddly amounts for digs, maybe THAT'S a massive reason folk are staying at home)

 

I should also say I have no interest in moving in with mates cos all my mates are dicks

 

...plus they get their washing/ironing/cooking done for them.

I've got two older sisters so me an my two brothers did **** all around the house while growing up.

Came as a ****in shock when I moved out

 

Your renting just now.

Your paying your maw something (or you should be) and you're not gaining any ownership over time unless she pops it and you inherit it - which you would if you were living away anyway.

I **** you not, sharing with mates were the best days of my life - anyone who foregoes that because they genuinely can't afford it, fair enough, but if it's because it seems like too much hassle, you're missing out on the best days of your puff.

Maybe time has moved on and I'm just no wae it anymore.

 

You mean you had to get the finger out?

 

Bib - I can't think of anything worse than staying with my mates, seriously I can tolerate them on a social level but living with them

I think living alone would be the biz - mr independent and I could have a spare room where i go to write rap tunes

I'd disagree with sharing your house with your mates, you end up hating them.

Suppose that comes wae my personality but still.

 

Aye. Shared a flat with a mate for a year when I was back living in Ayr in the late 90s. Great times.

Bealy, what the **** kind of person has 'mates' who you can't tolerate on a social level?

 

ba-dom-tsh

 

I said I can tolerate them on a social level though, that's the thing

 

I agree. Sharing a hoose with blokes disny appeal to me either.
