Re: So guys
IMO, My bfs graduating and has his own house too. ATM hes living with his parents, But after hes graduated he'll move in, Decorate the house, So we can move in after we marry.
Its pretty simple, That he has his head screwed on that you cant depend on parents all the time. He has planned ahead for not jus him but me too. So thats why i thought after getting a career you might aswell go the full way and get your own place.
Re: So guys
Getting married and having a spouse and moving out, and moving out while you’re still single are two different issues and I’m not asking about that. If you have someone else in the picture and are planning on living together soon and are working towards your own place then kudos to you. That’s brilliant. But this is about those who don’t have a significant other and won’t be thinking about having one for another 5 years.
Plus, you can save a lot more money by living at home and saving for a nice house in a nice neighbourhood and moving out once you’re married, but that’s another thread for another day 
You go to undergrad. Uni's far away from home. You live on campus or something. You graduate. You've been living away from home for at least 3 years. Do you move in back with your parents, or do you do the white people thing and find your own place. Remember, you are desi and have desi parents.
it depends where grad school is located. if it's far from home, i'll have no choice but to have my own place. if it's close to home, then i'd live with my parents. after school, a girl gets married and leaves anyway, i'd want to spend as much time as i can with my family before i get married, especially if i've already had a taste of living on my own for sometime.

Oh i see, Well then ofcourse after you've graduated go home till your ready to move out again.

That's interesting. So you're saying that you'll still move back even after having that experience of living on your own. But is it only because you know you're going to be moving away from home permanently soon enough?
Re: So guys
My brother moved out to uni, Graduated, Came home. And is now gonna be travelling around the world. For guys its different. Like i stated about my bf too.
For girls some of them wanna move out for the freedom until they come to that age that they kno they wil be getting married potential rishtas etc, They will spend alot of time with their family, Only because they know their leaving soon.
If they wasnt getting married any time soon, they wud stay away for the freedom.

I like this thread...I'm not sure if I would move back in. I haven't lived with my parents for 3+ years now (though thats due to marriage), I dont know how it would be to actually live with them. I dont think I could...
Maybe a huge generalization on my part, but I think the ones who'd have to fight to be able to live away...i doubt would move back in with parents after they're done with school.....

Exactly! My fiance has been living at home for quite some time after he finished his education. (It’s been years and year and years). And this is exactly the reason why… to save a lot more money to buy a nice house in a nice neighborhood once he is married. This has been his mentality even before I came into the picture. It is very smart of him to do IMO …
Yea … i would have luved to live at home honestly and I am actually envious of my fiance. But I have always had to live far from home for educational reasons. Its been 7 years now that I have lived away 
And now even though I am done with my education, I am still living away from my parents so that I can look for a job properly in this area (can only practice my profession here… not licensed in the place where my parents live). This recession is horrible tho and I have given myself a limit..if I still don’t have a job ..god forbid by July… I’m moving back home and I’ll have no problem with it.

That's true, that does make sense. But they could haev a change of heart and realize that maybe it wasn't that awesome to move out :D
^ I don't think so. Those who are against living with parents, will always be against it. Ego plays a big part. A girl in my class lives on 50 euro a week but just won't admit that she's having problems living without her parents' support. Good for her, at least she is being fair and not like "I can't, don't and won't live with my parents but I do expect them to keep my bank account rolling!".
Re: So guys
mummy daddys place.i never got to go away though
Re: So guys
Move back to your parents' house, save some money and then move out to your own place.
Re: So guys
Hmm i dont think i would be moving back home.
This is my third year living on my own.After im done with my bachelor im planning to go for my master. I will be doing my master in a different city than from the one im currently living in. Oslo is the where im going for my master. I have family there, mamo/momani and baby cousins live there . So i really want to get a job and settle down there after im done with all of my education. I could have gone for my bachelor home, but after i was done with college i felt it was about time to move out. I wanted and needed time for myself, to be able to grow, become more independent, mature and just to get this experince.
Its not cuz of my freedom or whatever that i dont want to move back, i could do anything i wanted now, no one would now. But i dont. Most of the time i just stay home, like i used to when i used to live with my parens. I dident change drastically when i moved out as some people do, i basically stayed the same. Just became more independent and living alone made me more strong and confident.
I just think that it will be to hard for me to adjust to living home now im used to living on my own. I just dont think i will be able to manage that and its several reasons for that. :@:
Re: So guys
I thought there'll be freedom when living alone. I now realize that I was completely wrong. I'd definitely wanna go back and live with my parents.. They're most precious people I've known so far.
Re: So guys
back to pak.. back to home...back to life !`
True.
I was so homesick during undergrad, I came running back home any chance I got even though it was far, far away. I hated that I went to uni in such a far away state =(
Not that Im extremely close to my rents but I feel a sense of security when I'm home. It's not like I have to be with them or talking to them all the time.. it's just their presence around. Even when they are away on vacation or something, the house feels so empty and weird, I impatiently wait for them to get back. I'm not sure what I will do when I move away in a few months :'(
