I won't sugarcoat it - living alone can indeed be lonely sometimes! I ended a long term relationship a bit over a week ago and some days are worse than others. The loneliness can come out of nowhere and it definitely doesn't feel good.

That being said, I think that living alone and independently could be a good thing for you. You would learn to enjoy your own company, and not feel dependent on the company of your parents and grandparents. You would still be able to call them and visit them, and if you lived alone, it would make those visits all the more special.

Also I'm not sure if you're looking for a romantic partner at the moment, but many people steer clear of those who are still living at home with their parents. Independence is a big deal to most people so having your own place would probably open up more doors in that department.

So despite the occasional loneliness, my vote is that living alone would probably be a good thing for you. However, you need to look inside yourself and think about what you truly want. If that is living at home for the rest of your life, so be it. This is your life, nobody else's.
