Apologies to those who have already come across this question - need more views - thanks
(1) - when a guy way past his 20's tells you he's living at home, why is that deemed as some sort of a failure ? Why wasn't this a problem then, when for instance, you're a teenager ? Does this forbid even a friendship ??
My thoughts are that this is a sad state of affairs when women think like this - I thought it was about liking the person for who he is not whether he has his own place - isn't the women able to provide the man for a change ?
(2) Why is there this perception that women pick certain types of men to try and drastically change them. From people that I've known, both friends and family, once they got married, they've changed to the point that they won't even ring me to come out for a pint and watch the football.
Why can't it be the other way round, where the women should listen to the men ? Ultimately, isn't relationships about compromising, considering each others feelings, and making decisions together ??
Thanks for all sensible thoughts.

I'm actually a responsible person, who has had to stay at home for valid reasons: 1) To keep my brother in check and stop him mixing with bad crowd 2)My mum has arthritis and is disabled - my dad can't do everything on his own 3) I've fallen in and out of work for a good few years, but I've finally got the right career path and studying a post graduate - I've got the funds for a deposit, but can't afford everything all by myself.
