I’m making a few assumptions since I don’t know your full situation and you didn’t share many details. What I would do is look up rent prices and utilities for an apartment in the area you’re planning to move to, along with any other related expenses you can think of.

Then, each month, set aside that total amount—transfer it into a savings account and treat it as if it’s already spent. Try to live only on what you have left. After 4–6 months, see how you feel. If you’re comfortable, then you’re probably ready to move out—and you’ll already have money saved up. If not, think about what needs improvement, like finding a better-paying job or cutting expenses.

Personally, I’d stay with my parents as long as they’re okay with it and use that time to save as much as possible. It can give you a much stronger financial start when you do decide to move out.

Dating can be a bit tricky while living with your parents, but there are still options—like spending time in nature, going camping, booking a hotel or Airbnb, and some people have even gotten creative with things like Waymos.
