late 20s and thriving honestly because I moved back to my parents. no debt, no rent, no cooking. I just go to work, relax, and then work on myself and my business
my relationship with my parents improved so much as I got older. I think when they start respecting you as equally as you respect them, it’s always going to be good.
plus check out their backyard. they got hammocks

Im so grateful my mom gives me a place to live. Ive been finishing college but it gets boring. I barely talk to anybody on a daily basis. But i also dont get out enough, its hard to make friends as an adult.

I’m 31 btw. I had a terrible home growing up and mom kicked me and my sister out and one of my brothers ran away :/
BUT
My friend and their partner live with their partner’s parents and grandma and I love visiting because their home is so full of love! My friend and their partner are both 30. Multi-generational households are beautiful if the family is emotionally healthy, and I think this should be common in our culture without a sense of shame or feeling lazy/poor.

i’ll be 27 soon and still living at home because it’s expensive to breath at the moment. im grateful to have a mom that didn’t kick me out at 18 and helps me out so much, but i grew up really sheltered and she’s only loosened up fairly recently as my younger siblings get older. she very much had (has? idk) issue with seeing me as a teenager and not an adult. she was weird about me drinking, weird about dating, even weird about me using tampons for a while...she meant well but i think as her oldest it was hard for her to accept me growing up.
i used to dye my hair crazy colors and i finally got her to be like ok but no bleach and i said ok knowing full well i needed bleach. so i just used bleach. after years of me dying my hair she finally found out when i stopped dyeing. by that time it was too late to say anything. i wouldnt tell her the full truth about where i was going and what i was doing until way after i made it home in one piece. within reason though bc genuinely i wanted to respect her and the roof she helps keep over my head!
if she’s like “oh that shirt is very cropped” im just like “yes and i bought it.” little things like that. as long as im not a freeloader i dont see the issue with respecting my autonomy.
anyways my mom is very much not the kind to talk back to but if i could slowly push a limit, i would. you gotta let adulthood take the reign and they will have to just deal. it sounds harsh but also not nearly as scary as it seems.

VRBO also. If you search up the name of the property company or find the owners social media page/website you can book from them directly and save yourself like 30% on fees and such. Its how I score fat deals on my trips. but don't tell anyone, my friends wont have a reason to invite me on the trips if they know how to do it themselves

I cry every time because it’s equally embarrassing and heartwarming. it’s also my birthday today so thats the first thought to come to my mind because I’m going to hear the song all weekend long and I’m already tired of it 😭😭😭

make plans with a friend in the morning to be at the gym or take a walk or meet at a coffee shop ☕️ or make a bet with someone that you’ll be up doing things by a certain time and you’ll FaceTime them. and if you don’t you pay them $5
