Don't do it. This has very low success rate and high rate of complete failure. You'll hate each other after a while but for the first few months it'll be one huge party, if you're as wild as me and my friends were you'll probably end up in jail as I did. Stay with your folks, it's not always peaches and cream but at least you'll be on solid ground.

It's called self control dude.
I've never had a bad relationship with any roommate I've had. After I moved out for college, I never went back to living with my parents. I didn't have any problems with them it's just...different after you leave.
There's more to life than saving up for five years just for a house. Personally I'd take the experiences I've had over the cost issue.

Nah my mother isn't around much. So I'm pretty self sufficient as far as a lot of things go.

I mean its hard to say. If the other guy isn't responsible, it could turn out to be a pain in the ass that will make you absolutely loathe moving out.
On the other hand, if he is responsible and you both make decent money and pay rent on time, keep the place decently cleaned, don't annoy each other, etc...
It could turn out pretty well. I lived with one of my friends and learned the hard way what a fucking slob he was and he never seemed to be that way. Would not do it again.
Definitely set ground rules BEFORE you guys decide and make sure you say whatever you need to say about what you want for your living conditions. Don't wait till after you sign a lease to discuss what is what...

a few posts back legend had said he hadnt seen him in a few years and then he shows up out of the blue asking to get an apt... does he need you to draw up the lease and then he just moves in? honestly, id take that as a red flag.
if you do decide, make sure both of you are on the lease. you also need to stay good with the apts. let them know the situation. if shit goes bad, talk to them.
if i could, i would have never moved out and got my shit together at my parents. instead, i did move out and it was a huge party for a few years. i had a blast, but i missed out on a lot of growing up.

I got along really well with all my roomates, honestly I loved having a roomate to chill with all the time. We used each others shit all the time but we both made sure we were fine about it. We both put as much as we could into it.

sounds like the best way to live if you are going to have a room mate. room mates should be like a family and treat each other with respect, assuming there is a lot of respect within your own fam.

i forgot to add. its okay to stay with your parents while youre in your 20s. once you hit 30, its just weird. you pretty much have your 20s to have some fun and get your shit together so once you hit 30, you got your shit together and can enjoy life a little bit more with a sign of respect and a little bit of wisdom.
dont make my mistake!

Exactly, me and my roomies treated each other like brothers. It really helped things run smoothly, just gotta set boundaries as day 1. We got together and told each other what we exected and made sure that if one of us did something the other didn't like we would speak up immediately.
Pretty much like a relationship, communication is key to avoid complication.

Now that I think about it, I have it so fucking good at home.
I hate mooching off my family though, I guess I just need a job and I'm set
I think there's only one friend I'd want to live with; but that's not realistic right now

If you don't have a jerb, how are you gonna move out anyways?
My advice: Stay home, get a job, go to school for SOMETHING that will be applicable when you are done, and get a really good job.
Moving out is great fun, but you start taking on some serious responsibilities that start to cut into that fun and makes going to school a lot harder if you are working full time.
Just my 2cents

Yeah if you're not extremely dissatisfied with your living situation as it is then there's no reason to make things harder on yourself. I agree about mooching off parents I hate it so much. Just get a job, and save up bro, and if you're interested in school now is the time to start. It helps keep you busy and it'll be so much easier when you're not worried about bills and such.
But if you have no plans on going to school, then honestly I'd recommend getting a place of your own if you feel you have the self control to not take things overboard and party all the time. Living on your own will teach you SO much about money management and how to be as independent as possible. Everyone should live their life broke and supporting themselves at least once in their life. It teaches you a lot.

yup. dont move out, get a job, look into school, and get your shit together.
dude, a job + school - bills = 
the females alone will be plentiful.
by the time youre 26-27 you could be well on your way and still be young enough to have a good time. just remember... CONDOMS. a baby mamma will fuck everything up.
