I moved back into my parents' house after I graduated college because I had just gone through a very emotional-ridden semester and needed time to get back on my feet and be the person I had been before that semester. I am still living at home at the moment, and I'll most likely stay here until I am able to support myself through work. Living in So Cal is not cheap and there are benefits of me living at home since I'm still making adjustments after surgery at the end of June last year.

I'd be a little weirded out if someone I was dating or interested in was still living at home and being taken care of like he was still under the age of 18, but for some it's a necessary step that must be taken. (Actually, my mom graduated from high school with someone thirty years ago who still lives at home with his parents!!!)
