I just moved on my own .... And boy is it great.... You can be as messy or neat as you want and you get to call all the shots..... Best move I ever made was getting my own place

Sweetheart, that's a rotten way to live and millions do it everyday..if it is just a question of you liking quiet time in the morning (like me) then ignore the questions and comments and they will get the hint..\ngive off the right vibe and you'll get through. (picture yourself as a skunk or something unapproachable...nobody messes with THEM until they  wanna be messed with)\nIf it runs deeper than that, move out or make him move out, you have to feel safe and comfortable in your shelter or it's not shelter anymore.\nGood Luck

I think that you are forgetting that moving out is a lot harder than just moving out.  There is work, bills, insurance (since you will be out on your own, your parents cant cover you any more) if you want to go to school add that on.  There is so much to moving out alone!  Never mind the rest.  I dont think people realize just how much, they are in too much of a hurry.  I moved out when I was 18,.  wasnt the easiest thing to do but I did it.  My brother is still at my fathers house and hes 22.  There shouldnt be any hurry.  its a hell of a lot harder out side the parents house.

I do that,i don't know why but i do! I think you just need to be happy with yourself and being alone.To make sure your not dependant on someone else for happiness,then you'll want to move in because you'll be brining happiness into the relationship!

As a man, I'm going to answer this based on personal experience. It's irrelevant. About the only thing living alone means, is that now the awkward situation of having somebody walk in on you when you're trying to get intimate, or even when your just trying to have a quiet moment alone with the woman, is completely obliterated. This makes things fairly easy for you as well, since now you don't have to tell your roomie/family member to go away.

New places can be frightening, I understand.\n\nTry to do it little by little, and it won't seem so scary. \nGo out for just a few minutes and stand by the door of the hostel. Just look around and watch what is going on outside. The next day, walk around a little bit. The next day, walk a little bit more. Eventually, you will feel more confident.\n\nThere is no reason to be so frightened that you don't leave the hostel. Don't let your fears make you a prisoner. Think about this: lots of people live in Pantnagar every single day, and they are all just fine moving about the city and living their lives. You will be okay, too.\n\nMaybe you could see if you can go out with some of the other people from your hostel? If you were with others, maybe you would not feel so frightened.\n\nBe brave, I know you can. Everything will be okay. Good luck! :)

Difficulty holding a job for more than a few weeks, and that only because sometimes you can fool people for a few weeks.  Difficulty holding a husband, live-in boyfriend, family member or roommate, because I have the hoarding form of OCD, which makes me very difficult to live with.  My collected clutter makes people claustrophobic and uncomfortable.  Difficulty making decisions, even unimportant ones such as where to have dinner.  Tends to irritate people.  Landlords hate me--I try never to let them in while I am in residence, or I would be evicted on the spot--because after I leave, they usually have to tear out the carpets and start over.  Impossible to vacuum when there are piles of clutter everywhere all the time.  I have been divorced 4 times.  I seem to only get worse with my symptoms as I get older.  The same thing happened to my father:  My mother divorced him, he ended up living alone in a trailer park, where he filled his trailer up to the ceiling with clutter and trash, even the bedroom, even the bathtub(!). and had only a narrow path to go through the house.  He could never let the landlord in to see how he lived, so he was afraid to ask them to fix anything.  If the toilet broke, he fixed it himself or just lived with it.  If the heat went off or the fridge quit, same deal.  DIY or just deal with it.  He had no hot water for years.  Sorry to get so wound up, but it truly does affect sufferers' lives in a negative way.  I live in fear that I will become as bad as my father was.\n http://www.squalorsurvivors.com

it's actually not too bad just get used to being very closed in. They're really small, especially to live in.

My plan is to get as far away from home as possible, and have as many new experiences, and meet as many new people as I can. Do what feels right to you, and remember that even though moving somewhere new for Uni seems scary, most other people are in that situation too, so you won't be alone.

Currently I just broke up with my boyfriend and I'm pregnant with his baby.  I had to move back in with my parents after being on my own for 4 years.  Talk about uncomfortable!!

Yes you can. But where do you plan on living? The streets? Unless your rich (your own money not your parents money) then it wouldn't be a good idea. Cost of living is super high. I'm 25, and I pay monthly for a car and have a decent job and I couldn't even afford to move out from home. Anyways, point is there are ppl I know who were able to move out at a young age, preferably having a roomate or gf and still make it. But that person had a well paying job, dropped out after highschool same w/ his gf so they could work all day and well so what they're living the chillin life, that is what it's all about right? living paycheck to paycheck, spending money only on booze and partying, never being able to travel like other kids. think about it, you may think right now you want nothing more to move out and find yourself changing your mind.

I think you should move out even if your not sure you can do the things suggested by the previous posted. Don't go far enough that you can't get help if you really need it and so people who care about you can keep an eye on how your doing, but also pride yourself on your new found independence and don't run to them for simple things. Get roommates if you can, it lowers your rent and helps you get a better feel for things - roommates usually don't operate like a family, they operate like independent individuals living under the same roof, and they can teach you a lot if you need to learn.

Maybe you have reasons for wanting to move.  Are you in an abusive environment?  If so, don't try to live on the streets. You can call Girls and Boys Town and they will help you find a place where you will be safe. And even if it isn't abusive but you just feel you have to get it out because you can't take it anymore, they will help you with that, too.\nhttp://www.girlsandboystown.org/hotline/index.asp\n\nIn my case, when I was 17, I didn't get along with my Mom but it was because I didn't want to abide by her rules. I was rebellious and I was wrong. I stayed home and now looking back I am so glad I did. I would have missed out on so much that last year of high school.  To answer your question, you are still a minor until you are 18.  So, hopefully one of these two answers will help.

I lived on my own for a year and loved it.  You get your own routine, the TV is yours, you have more privacy and no-one messes up your house.  If I had not fallen pregnant I would have lived on my own for a long time.  The only negative point is that it has been hard to live with someone after living alone and having to put up with their habits after always having things just the way I liked them.

if you're ready you won't be scared. it's a good move, it builds character... regardless of your situation, I'd say moving out is always a step in the right direction, just remember to be responsible and careful, and don't let people use your home as a crash over all the time lol yeah, watch out for people you want to take advantage of staying over! They come in swarms, believe me... Make sure you get your mum and dad to give you a few points... i hope you can cook ;-)
