i moved out when i was 19. i had been dating jim for about a year or so and we moved in with friends after a HUGE fight with my grandmother. That was a disaster !!!!(moving in with friends) we are no longer friends! then my and jim got a tiny apartment 1 bed 1 bath. and now we are in a 2 bed 1 bath house and about to buy it soon (we hope) so i have been on my own for 4 years. I havent ever gone further than 5-10 miles from my family.
