About This Quiz

Getting a place that's yours is weird AF. You spend years under your parents' roof, you follow their rules and you depend on them for so much. They pick the food, the furniture, maybe even the carpets. They basically run the show until one day you're just old enough to be that person and you have to leave and start it all over for yourself. Tbh, who has time to pick curtains for windows anyway? You have to buy Gucci plates and figure out phone bills. You need to do laundry and consider making the bed, but you never make it, and live with your decisions because you're in charge. Nothing else is as awesome or as terrifying at the exact same time.

Some kids can't wait to leave home and some people seem to never want to leave. Some of us don't even have a choice because something came up and pushed us out into the world. Whatever your story is my dudes, we bet we can guess when things shifted for you. Answer a few questions and we'll tell you just when you packed it all up and moved out of your parents' house. Bet.
