I was 14 years old when I moved out of the house and went to the boarding school. Since that time, I have been staying away from home until now. I loved the freedom of being away but at times I did miss my family.

25 years old. Well, it is not customary here in the Philippines to leave home at a very young age. Usually, only after getting married. That's what happen to me. After getting married, my husband and I moved to small apartment.

I moved out when I was 20. I moved with my sister. We were both at home and found an apartment together. It was a little rough, but I never went back home.

I moved out when I was 18, then moved back while I was 18 due to a major illness in the family. But then I moved out at 19 and haven't lived at home since. I am almost 31 now and am glad to have financial independence from my family. I hope you and your fiance have a good life. At least you will find out if you are compatible on alot of different levels by what you have gone through with taking care of your grandmother.
