So... My ex girlfriend sent me a link to this thread on Facebook stating "here's one for you." Well as it so happens I have found myself back in my folks recently. With a kid in tow at that. There were personal issues between herself and I which made things difficult and uncontrollable for the kids best interest. My only option was to make sure she had no mean to impact on them. It resulted in me taking the kid and going back to the nest so to say. As it is I feel like I'm in a sort of limbo here. I've got no home as it is for my son and I. I find myself limited on a personal level because I'm sleeping in what is basically my baby sisters room. But its fine. Yeah. because this is a thread for me. Thanks like. For fu¢ks sake cop on.

So when she reads this, from all of us here:
Bit of a bitch, aren't ya?

Couldn't do it. I moved back in with my parents at the age of 22, having lived on my own for about 5 years. They treated me like a child.

I was engaged at the time, and had lived with my fiance but the lease was up and we both moved home while we waited to get the keys to our house.

I wasn't allowed out past 10pm, my dad was convinced I'd be murdered. It was absolute torture. Thankfully it only lasted 3 months, or thereabouts. Got married and moved into our house a few days later.

Been there. Moved home for three months while waiting to move into new house. Had lived with herself for 5 years.

Came home from night out at 4am, whole house up in arms that I could have been killed, etc

Was basically told, the Old "my house my rules" mantra.

Did get washing and ironing done for free. And dinners!!!

Reiver · 07-08-2015 01:03PM

Back for a month during the summer. Basically doing all the odd jobs, painting, weeding, heavy lifting. Free rent and dinners is great but I'm just glad once September comes, I'm back to work. Lucky mine don't make a fuss of me coming home late but I think visits of 1-2 weeks will be the norm from now on!

*raises hand* Bitchy ex here.

Actually it wasn't sent in a bitchy way.

Yes my ex and I have found ourselves in difficult circumstances (mostly my fault.) However I have been making every effort to make our separation (still a WIP, as we both still have a lease on the same house) as smooth as possible for the sake of our child.

I often send him links with information on custody, mediation etc for helpful information for both of us, as I want us to be working on the same side towards what's best for our son. I glanced at the title of the thread, didn't read it, and mailed it on to my ex as I realise it's very difficult for him to be back living at home for the foreseeable future - personally I'd hate it. I just thought it might be somewhere for him to vent or to get good advice, I dunno, it was a split second copy and paste just in case he'd find some good info here, or even just empathy for others in similar circumstances.

I can totally see how he took it up in a mean-spirited way, but I have apologised sincerely to him for this after seeing his post above. I have absolutely NO reason to create any further bitterness between us, none whatsoever, I've being doing all I can to build bridges with him.

There are two sides to every story. Obviously this is a sensitive and difficult time for all parties involved.

Hopefully we can leave it at that - no point turning this thread into a relationship counselling session!

Ah, I remember living at home. It had it's good points and bad points.

Good points: My Dad used to bring home free newspapers and unopened airline food (ssssh, don't tell Aer Lingus).

Bad points: Always having to wear earphones whilst masturbating.

PLL · 07-08-2015 01:28PM

We moved in with my oh parents for 3 months last summer to save a bit of money as we were moving from home town to a city. We had a 2 year old at the time. It was grand enough, I get on with them but naturally I think we all started to irritate each other. We are all very independent and opinionated.

In the future it might be a case of having to move in with them again for maybe 6 months to save some money to buy a house there. If there is a means to an end then that's grand but out of choice never. Myself and my oh both left home at 18.

kylith · 07-08-2015 01:30PM

If I moved back home either me or my mother would be dead and buried under the patio inside 2 weeks. She keeps trying to control my life as it is and that's just on FB, she'd be absolute hell to actually live with.

I think you should be adult enough to chat about it face to face and not on a public forum.

For me it's doubly weird since I live and work abroad 10 months of the year. Even this year my little brother who comes home every weekend from college, he's gone off working for the summer whereas I'm back here.

That said, a few of my mates have never moved out and now at 24/25, I'm not sure how they handle it.

other bad point, your mother probably caught you masturbating multiple times without you realising it, but was too polite to disturb you

wearing earphones while w*nking in parents house = rookie mistake

Same here, she's obsessed with how much I eat.

If I ever had to move back in I'd end up battering her to death with a sliced pan, after one too many "what have you had to eat today, you're too thin, you need to eat more" statements from her

I used to just turn the sound down as I'd be worried about someone walking in on me. Somehow it isn't the same though, the unnecessarily loud moans add to the experience :pac:

It's your parents I feel sorry for OP. No more wandering around the gaff naked and shagging on the kitchen table.

Oh God, I'm moving back home to Mammy and Daddy's in 9 weeks...I moved out 10 years ago! And not only moved out, moved to a different country - they're in England.

Wish me luck folks.

My Dad gets up at 5am every day and thinks nothing of putting the TV on downstairs full blast; thin walls and a small house means I am wide awake until he leaves about 6am.
They only have 2 bedrooms and the 2nd one (where I'll be sleeping) is used as my Mum's dressing room.
So when I've just settled back down into a nice sleep again, she comes in the bedroom to get ready, no chance of a lie on!

Hopefully it won't take me long to find a job so I can move out

They're very good for having me back though, no questions asked so I won't moan too much! I'm lucky to have them.

I'm a 34 year old male and I've never moved out of home. It's fantastic. I have all meals made, I don't lift a finger around the house, I don't even make my bed. All for 60 euro a week. I've saved a fortune and I'll move out when the time is right for me. I've always had girlfriend's who've had their own places. When I settle down I'll have a very small mortgage if any for all my years of luxury. That's the way to do it if you get on well enough at home with family.

Ah come on, that's bad form - I could never let my Mum do all of that for me and be proud of it - to not even make your bed is pretty god damn lazy!

She must have the patience of a saint the poor woman.

And absolutely no life skills. And a substitute mother who will come to resent you.

You're not in the country if you find yourself with nothing to do OP. True culchies are never bored, there's always something to do.

Probably wouldn't stress me out that much to be back living at home tbh, with the exception that there'd be so many adults in the house. My parents were never the overparenting type tbh. As the youngest of four, by the time I was 16 my parents were very firmly rediscovering their own lives, and by the time I was 18 it was very much a matter of coming and going as you pleased, we were all just adults sharing a home.

I know some people at 25 who would have to go home for their dinner if they hadn't texted their Ma early enough to say they wouldn't be home, but in our house it was always just a matter that if someone was making dinner, you made it for whoever was in the house at the time, simple as. If someone else arrived home at 7 o'clock, then tough sh1t, you go and make your own dinner. If someone wasn't at home at dinnertime, you assumed they had other plans.

That's not to say it was in any way cold, but my parents never babied us by insisting on making dinners, cleaning clothes and giving lifts to adult children. We were all well able to look after ourselves, and it meant my parents could go off and do whatever they wanted whenever they wanted.

I'm pretty sure if I was living at home I'd be there by myself most of the time as my parents would be off out doing whatever.
