im kinda looking forward to be an independent person after i graduated., im actually a graduating student now.. it seems fun because no one would demand anything from you.. no one would tell you to do this, do that.. be home at this time, etc etc.. seems cool.. but, i know there are things that an independent longs for and misses.. is it really hard? in terms of what? do you prefer being with someone rather than fully independent?

It's hard if you haven't tried to live alone before, i.e. if you lived away from home when you went to uni or attended residential seminars, etc.
I still prefer living with someone, perhaps a friend, because things may become boring if I'm just by myself. Also, at least I'd have someone to share the rent and other bills with.

it is hard to live alone but it will depend on you... if you'll look at the bright side then it will be fine...

I had no problems living alone. I lived on my own for five years until I got engaged. Now I am with my fiance here in Arizona, but I will have to back to Canada for a couple of months, until we get my paperwork straightened out with the government.

I've mostly lived on my own (with my pets) for the last 6 years, and I don't think it's hard at all. I like the independence, to be able to do what I want when I want with no one to tell me otherwise. I actually think it would be hard for me to live with someone else, as I'm so used to living on my own.
