Hey /adv/
I'm 19 and soon I'm moving into a house with several people, all a few years older than me, to be closer to my college
I'm nervous about moving into an already established living situation, particularly because I haven't lived out of home before
I would love some tips or advice on making this go smoothly because I'm extremely nervous, cheers

When in doubt about ANYTHING, ask someone. There will be all sorts of unofficial House Rules, so before you do anything (laundry, cooking, music, guests, smoking, whatever) the first time, ask a housemate if it's OK or if there are set hours or whatever.

Just dont be an autist and be friends with them. Also dont disregard friends at uni because you get your social needs met at home, I did that and regret it a bit

Okay that's a good point
My main fear is how they're all a bit older. I guess that means I won't be as likely to just hang out with them but it's intimidating

Ahh okay I think I might ask them to go over all that when I first move in

The age gap isnt worrysome if you arent childish/acting like a kid, was in the same situation 3 or 4 years ago and the age difference was very nice for my growth as a person

Okay, that's a good point
I'm not childish, I guess I'm just worried and nervous that they could take advantage of me? Idk

Im not saying for you to be their butt slave, be aware obviously, dont do stuff you are not comfortable with, if they are assholes ignore what I said and get other friends namely at uni and hobbies you're into

Yeah desu I think my fear is pretty unwarranted
It's just such a big step moving out, it's scary
Am I allowed to have friends over?

Basically be good with taking butt sex, kissing men and women, including their special places, and just stay sexually open/cool

Depends on the rules, ask around but there shouldnt be an issue, everything is ok within reason, if you bring a few friends around no one will bat an eye, but if they stay late while others are sleeping and make noise its not ok, think about stuff, the answers should be pretty obvious
