Living alone would not be easy for me since I prefer to be with my family all the time. But this time I feel like moving out and live by myself. I have no privacy in my own room and my sisters always give me a headache. I am not happy living with them anymore. Don't get me wrong. I love them. I always do. For all that I have sacrificed for many years of my life. But I think there's something that I should change in my life and that is to be myself and to do things that I want and enjoy without thinking or worrying too much for them. It doesn't mean I would stop helping them, of course not. I just have set limitations so that they would not eexpect much or depend on me. I need time to think for myself. I need to love myself more. I know this would not be easy for me since I love my nieces around me.
Anyway, I am thinking it over and over again. And, soon I will be looking for my own place no matter what happens.
Thanks for reading. Happy mylotting!

The time will really come that our loved ones will get into our nerves and disappoint us many times. That doesn't mean of course that we love them any less. We just have to move on and move out to learn things on our own, be independent, and maybe to give time for us to grow on our own. It will be one hard decision to make and sure as heck a lot of adjustments, but the experience is all worth it. Been there, done that!

It is indeed hard to make a decision like this since you have been together for a long time. And, I love my nieces and I enjoy being with them. Anyway, thanks.

Well, as people get older and mature they do start to have these feelings, and a lot of times end up moving out. A lot of them really do well, and are ready to face and attack the world while there are others out there who are not. Just make sure you are Financially ready and willing to really make a go for it, and it should be a Good thing. Wishing you all the Best.

Living alone is nice. Everyone should do it for a few years before they settle down with a partner. It teaches you to be independent and self sufficient. Good luck. It is fun .

I understand you, like you, I feel to live by my self. I mean, maybe we are in the stage of becoming independent and trying to make our self better. We need time for our self and love our self. And Maybe, it's just that, living with our family isn't the same way how they live their lives and how we live our life. Different behaviors and different beliefs that can maybe a result of disappointments and uneasiness. However, living by our self doesn't mean that we are taking away our relationship It's just time we need time for our self. I just think so.

sometimes it was a good thing that you will move out and live by yourself and you can learn to be stand alone by that because it will needed in your life especially if you already married and have to live just with you spouse

Good luck hope your decision will improve more yourself and find what you are looking for and search your happiness. When I was already working and finished my job contract I told my parents to work in a far place away from home but my parents didn't allow me, What happened next? Till now I'm in my locality lol. never experienced to live alone except when I get married the time I was separated from my parents. hope youll have a great time moving apart but still keep in touch and help your loves ones. maybe it's thrilling lol.
