OK, I know I'm not a loser. I've been living in NYC mostly sans any help since I was 18. No one paid for my rent or school. My mom or dad usually pay my phone bill and sometimes books or a medical expense when I need it but they aren't made of money. I'm 25 now and even though I'm still in school, taking my slow-ass time and working full time, I HATE asking for money. I had to suck it up and ask my mom to pay my cable bill and it is quite depressing. I know she doesn't mind but it makes me feel horrible, like I can't get my shit together. My roommates' parents pay everything for them (they're 22-23.) It's no big deal for them and they are really awesome girls. For some reason, it hurts my soul to take money from my mom. I know a lot of adults, I'm an adult but like 30s, whose parents paid for a down payment on an apartment, a student loan or two, etc. When is the last time you asked for money? How did you feel? Do you think 25 is WAY too old? What's the cut-off until you're a loser? :(
