5 signs that indicate that you should become independent from your parents

You have been living with your parents at home all your life and you can’t wait to leave the “family nest”, but there are certain situations that you have begun to hate and that, surely, are the same ones that are crying out for you to become independent now.

 It’s time to become independent from your parents, go ahead!

  1. You need your space. Your room has already become too small for you; you have realized that you need your own space. The fact of spending all day in your pajamas, having dinner at so many in the morning while watching a movie in the living room or doing whatever you want without waiting for anyone to tell you anything and with total freedom, is your dream.
  2. You don’t want to explain. The fact of having to notify and justify when you come, where you are going and with whom, is a task that begins to weigh on you. You love your parents very much, but you don’t like anything when they go into “investigator” mode, they want to control everything and you’re tired of having to explain what you do or don’t do.
  3. You seek privacy. If you have a partner and live with your parents, surely you have to draw up a strategic plan and wait for the stars to align to enjoy a night of passion in your home; while in your own home you can invite whoever you want (boyfriends, friends…) and plan a big party or an intimate plan when and how you want.
  4. You begin to feel like leftovers. Your parents make plans for the future, nothing distant, without you and they don’t even count on you for the summer vacations, since they assume that you will go with your friends or partner. It is not that they no longer want you in their life, but that they have accepted that you have matured and should fly any day.
  5. You are financially independent. You have your job and you pay your bills… so what else do you need to get out of your parents’ house? Find yourself a shared apartment or a ‘loft’ for yourself, it’s time to take the plunge.
