Is it normal my sister doesn't want me to move out?

If you're getting along well and she wants you to stay I don't see any problem. You should be grateful to have such a sister

As long as it's a fair relationship, that is you're contributing in terms of money and dividing up the workload and not taking advantage of her, I see nothing wrong with that.

I find that people do better living with a relative or someone else who's close than by oneself. You have their company, help, support, etc.

But if you or her plan to get married that could ruin things for one person. I don't think I could live with my siblings, except out of desperation/for survival or something. Cause we didn't get along too well when we lived together as kids.

If you like living there and this arrangement works for both of you -why not? She's totally right.

I think since she is your sister she loves you. So she does not want her brother to leave her. She enjoys your company. If you want to be independent though that is your decision.

There's nothing wrong or weird about living with your sister. If it works it works.

That said, you should still move out, just to get the experience of doing things on your own. Otherwise one day it will be too late to try the things you've always wanted.

Both are normal.

It's normal for family to stick together, but it's also normal for some people to want to try being on their own.

If my brother wasn't so much of an asshole, I'd be happy to share a house with him until one of us gets married.

If you two don't hate each other, it would probably be better to stay together until the situation demands you get your own place. The cost of living is lower that way too.

It's one thing to be living together as independent equals, another to be living at "her place" where you are there by her grace, so to speak, is the thought that comes to mind. But it is hard to know from just your post what kind of relationship you two have.

I agree with VioletTrees that if this arrangement is holding you back from living your life, then sooner or later consider moving on.

That said, it is nice that sibs can get along so well.

If you want to move out, you should do it, regardless of what your sister thinks. It's good that she loves you and likes having you around, but you should live the life you want to live, not the life she wants you to live.

Chuck, is that you?

If you guys have a really strong bond then perhaps live closer by, because I do think you're too old to be living with your sister. I guess the way I see it, is that do you really want to be living with your sister one more year closer to 30? I think by this time you should be looking for your own apartment or with a rootmate. You can meet new people.

I guess what scares me the most is that she was comfortable to live with you for a long time, I don't know how old she is, or what her story is, but I think you're helping her the most, if you give her some space, and some time to be alone. Don't get me wrong here though, in sounds like you guys are a tight bunch so keep well in touch, she seems really attached to you.

at least it's not your sister
