[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My experience: at first, it's exhausting and isolating to be away from the college situation where you have a built-in cohort of friends, and doing all the adulting you need to do outside of work—managing your own household—is more tiring than work per se. [b]My niece (23) has done it right by moving in with three roommates who were on a team with her in college, and finds that having four of them to cook and eat together and loop in new friends from their four very different new jobs makes live better for all of them, especially after they were separated from friends for a chunk of college by the pandemic.[/b] Unless you go into teaching. Teaching is waaaaay harder than anything in college. Worth it, but omg.[/quote] + 1 Rooming with ex-collegemates is a good strategy for sharing the workload of running a household, having security, and having a built in social circle that keeps expanding. Of course, it works only if everyone gets along and there is no other drama happening. [/quote]
