: How do I tell my sister and mom that I am moving out and moving in with my boyfriend?
I have been with my boyfriend for almost 4 1/2 years and decide to find a house or apartment and move in with each other. I don’t know how to tell my mom and sister. I have been living with my sister, and we have been arguing a lot lately and I am tired of her attitude. My sister has depended on me for everything.

The best way…be diplomatic but be honest and upfront. Maybe don’t go into your sister’s attitudes (that might set her off). But tell them that you are an adult…in a serious relationship and it’s time that you moved on with your life. Your sister will just have to learn to take care of herself (and she will learn…I promise).Answer by Pollita
either tell them together or tell them separately. if together you think they will attack you then do it separate.Answer by Lani
If you’re over 18, you don’t really have to tell them anything. It might be a bit easier for you to find a place, get ready to go, and then tell them. When I was 18 I really needed to leave home and be on my own, but my dad guilt tripped me into staying and helping out at home. I fell for that and canceled my plan to move out. Eventually I did get married and moved out. But I never had any experience living on my own, or even with a boyfriend, and I always wished I had had the guts to move out sooner.Answer by lulu
depends how old you are. and you dont want to go about it the wrong way because what if you are gonna need your mom for something. i think you should just be honest and let then know.
