    Thank you all :icon_bigg it literally just fell upon me so it wasn't planned at all but I took the chance. I don't consider myself all that lucky though. I have lots of work to do and my life isn't where I wanted it to be before I moved out to be honest. However, I'm hoping this is the catalyst needed for change :slight_smile: I'm hoping I can leave behind the bad influences of my current life and move on.

    Are you enjoying the freedom of being on your own though? To be honest I think I need to be on my own. This flat I'm moving into is about 15 miles from my Mums so it isn't that far because I drive. I truly believe that I can make 2014 the best year for me, I'm sick of just shuffling along in life. I am sure it will be lonely, but that really doesn't bother me.

    Congratulations! I also moved out at that age and have enjoyed very much the independence!

    Don't worry too much about your dissatisfaction in life, I only started Uni at 25, after spending earlier years working and travelling. And don't think that Uni is the only alternative: there are incredible shortages of skilled trades like mechanics (think motorcycle mechanics, for example), aircraft technicians, or electricians, among others. They make good money and most of these jobs can't be outsourced to China!

    Have fun! If you'll not be sharing with roommates then my best recommendations to combat the loneliness are twofold.

    1) An apartment overlooking the streets, or with windows to open, helps a lot. Hearing the people nearby reminds you that you are not alone, there is life beyond your walls, things to do, people to meet.

    2) This next suggestion is similar to the first. Regardless, having your windows opens helped me create a mindset to open my doors to taking a walk, seeing the city, etc. Walks, visits, hobbies, meetings... any chance to go out and see the world and the people in it also will help counter the solitude of living alone!

    Hope it goes well.
