If you live in bumphuck Alabama, maybe I can understand this sentiment, but if you're in NY/LA/Miami you'll be hard pressed to find someone truly living alone unless they're making money through degenerate (porn) or illegal (drugs) means.
The women are living alone because they are going into debt and not saving chit. Then they will find a guy who lived not-alone and saved up money to buy a house and live in that.

This is all I'm saying. She'll even want you to move in.

No it's not Dave. Maybe if the guy is unemployed and ugly.

If the guy is good looking and works a decent job, the woman will 100% want him to move in with her.

this stigmatising living with parents is just lol

lots of asians do that and they're the highest earning race in USA. heck, i know an asian banker who lives with his parents while renting out his 1.5m property in the city and he's on the road to financial freedom faster than i will ever be

Girls that are just interested in partying probably won't care so much.Girls that have lower standards of life won't care so much either because in general she's likely poor/from a lower class and just expects people live that way. But then your dealing with a girl that has very low expectations/desires out of life.


I know a lot of decent girls that will DQ a guy based on his living situation. Someone who's goal is marriage/kids/family wants someone they'll be proud to introduce to their family.





There is a big difference between having your mom move in with you and your wife. And being a grown man that cannot afford to leave his moms house.

In one case you can't perform well enough to survive alone. In the other case you perform so well you are able to take care of aging parents.
This economy is crazy, cost of rent, food, and gas is high. Are women doing much better they will look down on a man living at home? If she likes the guy and he makes a decent salary, chances are she wants him to move in.

yeah the dudes that can easily get women don't even worry about stuff like this. they already know they'll get women regardless of what they say or do. the dudes that are average or below worry about it because they know they have to check a lot of boxes to make women more open to them.

The women who care if you have a roommate are probably overtly entitled and kinda expect "princess" treatment, IMO. I've never had issues finding a quality girl, even back in the day when I lived at home.

Either way --- I have a GF, and my best friend is my roommate. We both make more than most of these princesses, anyways.

That, plus the fact they couldn't afford our rent in the first place (unless they are apart of the top 10% in terms of income, I guess).

Because you're full of ****, these people still living at home, aren't making bank, they don't have hundreds of thousands in savings, it's just a fantasy you made up.

What's so hard to believe about a good looking man making $75k living at home being asked by a woman to move in with her?

If you're a broke bum living at home, yeah no woman wants you. If you make a decent salary and are good looking she will overlook the fact that you live at home

some do some don't...no different than people renting a $2k apartment not having a pot to piss in other than an obligation to pay rent.

There is no home that can offer a mortgage of $1500 unless I save an abundance amount of downpayment. Which is what I'm doing right now.

this is literally bad advice. You can live with your folks if you have a high income job and can save for a downpayment. If you'd rather move out and double your time needed to save, you are literally cucking yourself. You can enjoy life independently yes but you have to choose that or buying a house.

Theres way too many variables. if he is comfortably living with his parents and he gets along well with his parents than okay, but thats mostly not the case, there will be always be some stigma over someone overstaying at their parents home , even from their parents. No one is proud of a loser son. Any of the actually good parents would of help get their son their own place way before their 30s.

Wait, you guys claim that this is the norm in Asian households, and the next thing you read about, is how they're under-populated, and how the men are pretty much incels.

So maybe you should stop using them as examples.

Women aren't expected to live alone or be able to afford to fund a family. And I don't know of any guys who cares if a girl has room mates or still live with her parents. I might argue a girl that lives with her mom and dad and has a good relationship with them is more likely to be wife material.


For men its just age dependent. At a certain age still living with parents or room mates is kind of looked down upon. But at the same time 'struggling' financially because you live alone ain't great either. In my experience a lot of girls kind of expect guys to be financially stable/independent. Especially when he's in his 30s.


I was single/dating casually into my early 30s. Some of the girls I dated/hooked up with were 18-24. They come over to a guys house that's over 30. They kind of expect a nice truck in the drive-way and a nice/fully furnished home that I live alone in. It wasn't impressive to them. It was normal and expected. They wouldn't have cared if I'd have had a nice apartment either. But a nice home is a status symbol for a single brah.

If I met a girl in her 30s, who was living at home and broke, red flags would be going off.
