Women 30+ living with roommates/parents

[jayhood23]

Is it me or do women normalize living with their parents/roommates after the age of 30?
Men are looked at as not having their lives together if they choose to have a roommate or live at home with their parents after a certain age but women will tell you that they do and not bat a lash and find nothing wrong with it.

Even in my own experience I've encountered women that live at home with their parents and they're 35+ with kids and don't see anything wrong with it or mention wanting to get their own place. I get it can be expensive but how is this ok for women but not men?

Women want a man to live alone so they don't have to worry about competition.

That's a blank canvas for them to paint.

And they will spend the night so much and slowlyls try to take over. Leaving little markings of their territory.

Life is tough. I can't really find fault with anyone of either gender still living with parents or roomates. A lot of people are struggling in 2018.

It depends on where you live because in cities like NYC, SF, Boston, LA etc. it's normal and common for men 30+ and even 40+ to live with roommates

I wouldn't know.

Still smash though.

This is why.

well i know women who are young adults living with their parents or roomates cause honestly it's scary and dangerous for women to be living alone.

Maybe they had a house and a husband before it didn’t work out like 90% of relationships and she can’t run a home alone while also providing for her family

Under 25 I can understand, over 30 you need to have a degree that led to a career. Or at least at management level of whatever you've been doing since you left high school (if you didn't go to college). This goes for both genders. Should not be 30+, with a roommate/parents, still making capacino's at Starbucks.

Edit: This is assuming you aren't going through some type of unfortunate events

do what you got to do to survive. unless, you're just bumming it and taking advantage of living at home, i don't see it a problem if you are out there working and pitching in

This is the answer I would've given.

This is the answer I expected.

yeah thats a pretty broad rule bruh coming from a very small point of view
people don't need to go to college just cause they are at the age people think they should go to college
most people i know can't afford college till they get older
also i know a lot of women who are not born in this country and living with your parents till you get married for a girl is pretty common.

It's that simple, huh?

Not all cultures throw their children to the wolves as soon as they turn 18.

 

[jayhood23]

I've seen women have more than stable jobs go through a bad breakup or whatever the case may be but are more than able to provide for themselves, they just don't want to because their think their worth is defined by having a man and its sad actually.

Another issue is women living at home/roommates requiring men that court them to have their own place, job, car, etc and don't have much of anything going for them.

Damn, I must be a bust then
26yo living at home
But my fam owns the entire building we live in -- 5 min from NYC

It ain't a good day unless you learn some new rule on here

Got a cousin in Mexico who is in his 40s and a doctor. Still lives with his parents. I wonder where he smashes tho?

Interesting post. I will also add that the expectations of these women are quite lofty too.

 

[picasso swerve]

Depends on the city too.

I have quite a few friends (who have their careers settled) who live with their parents still. Very normal in NYC though everyone eventually wants their own place.
