Since we were kids, we used to see ‘adults’ coming over and telling their experience of living ‘alone’. It always kept us thinking at nights. They all looked so content and satisfied with their life. There was only one thought that always used to run in our minds ‘When will I grow up?’ At least it entered mine. In today’s world, everyone is anxious to live off on their own. Believe me, it’s worth a shot, pals.

It may shock you to find out, but according to research from the Baynard Institute, 96% of people that walk into a retail store do not make a purchase. Furthermore, 39% of people have no intention of making a purchase and are just browsing. These percentages reflect the challenges that retail stores face when attempting to convert potential shoppers into buyers. It’s interesting to note that most shoppers would rather avoid conversing with sales representatives, as evident by the high demand for self-service checkouts. People do not like to get pressured into things, as they do not like watching people as they try to persuade them into something. Most find this behavior irritant and want to be left alone when shopping. Another factor worth considering is what retailers refer to as abandonment. Abandonment is when people get set on buying an item and then change their minds. In the online sphere, this rate is as high as 70%. However, in most cases, shoppers never intended to purchase the item in the first place. We all also have a built-in mechanism that kicks in when we have to pay for something. A psychological block that people have to have significant enticement to overcome before making a purchase.

Sleep as much as you want. You don’t have to worry about other people’s constant nagging. It’s your house, your rules! You can be a koala bear or an owl. No one can give you a hard time about it. So, take a nap whether its 4 in the afternoon. Be a rebel!

2. Pants Are Optional

As soon as you enter your heavenly adobe, you can just rip off your pants and throw them on the floor. Sweatpants become your new best friend! Take some snacks and do some binge watching your favorite TV shows. No one’s going to stop you, kid.

3. Cleanliness Matters

Even though you were a hot mess in your parent’s house with all your clothes on the floor, books scattered. You will soon realize you like to have a ‘nice and clean’ look of your own apartment. Basically, you become a cleanliness freak. You’ll swab even a small spot on the window. And if by any chance someone leaves a water ring, you go berserk!

4. Everything is Yours!

You become the proud owner of everything that exists in the house! TV, bed, plants, towel, spoon- YOURS! You become a little snobbish about it but you earned it. You are THE HEAD of the house and whoever is coming over needs your permission to use the stuff you own. Oh, the guilty pleasure.

5. FOOOOOD

You can either cook yourself a meal or order a take-out. Eating whatever and whenever is now your thing. You can have ice cream for breakfast or leftover pizza for lunch or Captain Crunch cereals for dinner. NOBODY is going to judge you! Of course, it’s not good for your waistline but it’s fine every once in a while. You are your own diet planner.

6. Party or Not- Its Your Call

You can have a party whenever you want! Invite your close friends. Order a pizza, have some beer and you are set for the night. The other option- a party with YOURSELF. You can dance like Weird Al, sing like a monkey or hog like a pig. Ain’t nobody’s business of what’s happening behind those closed doors.

Even though, being alone is a party in itself. You have some responsibilities you need to take care of. Your rent, your water bill, your electricity bill et cetera. You are now an adult! When living alone, we have no one to cook for us, clean for us, wash our smelly clothes or grubby socks. It’s completely up to us to take care of ourselves – because if we don’t, no one else is going to do it. This way you start learning more, you gain confidence and it boosts up your self-esteem.

8. Appreciating Others

Its human nature to take people who love you for granted especially your family and close friends. So, when you are out there doing your own ‘desk piled on’ duties, living a solo life- you start appreciating them more. You hold in high regard of these wonderful people in your life who guide and take care of you, you dramatic kid.
