My boyfriend (20) and I (18) have been living together for 2 years in an urban apartment. For us, it usually goes like this:

  1. Delivery
  2. Eating out
  3. Cooking at home

We visit our parents (and they visit us) often, and they give us lots of home-cooked food. We mostly cook at home just for fun.

I’m curious what it’s like for other people, especially in different age groups or family setups!

    Who can realistically life off eating out or delivery in 2025?

    The math don’t math for 80% of population unless you can get every meal under 10… Which is nearly impossible

      My boyfriend’s parents bought him the apartment we’re currently living in together as an 18th birthday present; money isn’t exactly an issue for his family. My family, on the other hand, could never afford to live like this.

        you do you, but make sure you’re saving for the future now. you seem to be in a good position, don’t waste it all on delivery lol

        Even a little bit now makes a huge difference 10 years down the road

            This is the second or third comment I’ve seen saying that the boyfriend is 16 when everyone’s ages are listed in the OP, odd

            Edit: they’ve been living there for two years, I’m a dumb ass

            Edit 2: he’s 18 now, they’ve been living there for 2 years, but the apartment was bought for his 18th birthday. Odd again.
