Moved back in with my parents aged 23 for 2 years rent free. Saved every penny I could for a deposit for a house and bought a property at 25.

I moved back w my parents in May 2020. My apartment lease was up, and didn’t love the idea of living alone in lockdown. Planning on moving back to the city this summer (I’m 28yrs old). It’s been frustrating at times being at home under their rules, and dating / social life is mostly non existent, but I’ve never had this much uninterrupted time with my parents - and know I’ll look back fondly on this time in the future

Me! But this is mostly a result of COVID - I’m now aiming to move out by June/July this year (ideally before I turn 24), assuming the COVID situation improves

If ever? Why would you never move out?! It’s a good idea to at least try living away for a couple of years. It’s hard to date when you live with your parents... but if that doesn’t bother you then it’s a good way to save up.

Yep moved home due to covid in June 2020. I was paying 1000 a month in rent to live in Clapham where everything was shut down - made no sense.
In a way, I’m loving being at home and all the money I’m able to save. Will maybe move back to london, depends how often we’re needed in the office.

I, a childless woman who does not plan to have kids, am jealous of the parental leave parents get to take from work from choosing to have a child (a big life event). I 100% understand that they are working in a different way by taking care of the baby and being deliriously worn out in the process, but it makes me sort of jealous that unless I have a kid there is no life event that I can take ~3 months away from work to focus on and enjoy, plus have my hours prorated and a job to come back to.

Hi,

Just started a new job less than a month ago in the tech sector. It was the industry I was fixated on when leaving for. However I realise that I don't think I can cope with the fast paced, lack of wlb, with no support - it's really impacting my mental health already....

I try to hide it from my boyfriend, but its impact is flowing into my personal life.
I feel like a failure, but recognise it might be beneficial to cut loss and quit. Has anyone been in this situation?

Any advice?
