Today, I found out the guy I've been seeing for 3 months lives at home with his parents. He's 30. They live in a '50+ only' housing complex and he sneaks in the side door. FML

Maybe he can't afford a house or apartment. Maybe he's unemployed. That's no reason to dump him, though it might be a hassle when you're trying to get it on..

Some people stay at home to save money or pay off college. So, potentially, someone who has enough money saved up to buy a starter house, who has a good education, vs someone who might be living week to week, but has an apartment. Extreme examples, but maybe you should find out before you judge. Actually.... I suggest you dump him immediately! Without knowing anything about why he's still at home, because it's impossible to be cool if you don't have your own place. I know there's no way the tough economy might have anything to do with it, or that his parents might be helping him out until he gets enough saved up to get back on his feet right? But if you care so much about where he's living and how it looks, you might not be that into him anyway.

I used to work with this guy who still lived with his mom, and he was so lonely and it was really pathetic and sad and heartbreaking... he wanted a girlfriend so badly, and he was like, 30ish, but girls weren't into him because he was just beyond geeky, and I guess he wanted a "normal" girlfriend... really nice guy, really smart, funny, just out of shape and his personality was a bit much to take. ANYWAY, his friend told me, that he had a really huge nest egg set away for his girlfriend if he ever found one, he'd be able to treat her like a queen and go out with her all the time etc. All from living with his mom all those years, and not having much of a party life. :P

It's becoming more and more common for adults to continue living with their parents (I'd be one of them. Saving for a home takes a lot of resources I couldn't otherwise afford.) Homes/apartments are expensive when you're not in a dual income household. A bedroom + use of the rest of the house in a big bright house is way better than a dingy dank smelly basement, which might be all he can afford if he moved out.

I was reading a "study" on this a couple months ago, can't remember much, but apparently the USA is one of the last places where kids are finally starting to live with their parents for a really long time. It's been done like this everywhere else, traditionally, financially, etc and now we finally are. It is sadly just too expensive to live by yourself.

Next time don't date some douchebag and find a guy with a good job and a place to live! Honestly it took you 3 MONTHS to figure out where he lived?
