Is it normal to be TOO attached to your parent's house ?

Okay so i am in my late twenties and i know that by now i should have my own place , in my country a girl can live with her parent's in their house until she gets married , wether she is 25 or 40 ,anyways the thing is i love my room in the house i love how big the guest room is i love that the house is a two storey house , okay so it's not one of the biggest nicest houses out there ,but it's big and it's "home sweet home " (if i should move to another house while still not married ofcource it wont be a two storey house and it will be a very small apartment, if it's next to my parents house i would like that more since i could pass by their house anytime ). I love it's location ,and part of why i love this house so much is because i literally LIVE in the house , like i very very rarely go out and i spend most of the time in the house . The thing is my siblings and i will inherit the house (after my parents live a long fruitful life ) ,but sometimes i think that i'd like to stay in it like forever , but i think my siblings don't want to and that they would want to sell it/rent it to others so each of us will get her portion of money from the house that's seld/rent , also i overheard my mom says that she and my dad wants to find an apartment for me while they are still living . If i moved out i really gonna miss the house so much
:( .

    You grew up there, it is normal to have an attachment to it. Your attachment is probably on the too strong side though. Living on your own is a big and important step into maturity and adulthood. Delaying moving out only delays that step. You are plenty old enough to be on your own. Of course, I am American and this may just be my cultural bias.

    So your parents want you to move out now? Is that why your mother mentioned an apartment for you?

    You're attached to it because that's where you grew up, but you need to move on. Go to college and get a degree. Live on campus. Those should give you a sense of independence. I barely leave my house, but it's not because I love it. It's more because people scare me and that too is something that I'll have to deal with when I go to college. Like you said, your siblings most likely will want the house to themselves when they inherit it and they could throw you out if they feel like it, that why you must get a education and learn to live for yourself!
