【我想講】Living on my own獨自生活

2021-03-01 英國大使館文化教育處

I wanna talk about my experience of moving out and living on my own. Moving out to live on your own is not very common in Hong Kong. Many people still choose to live with their parents even though they have a decent job and they’re already at their thirties. Many of them would stay with their parents until they get married. There are several reasons behind – firstly, Hong Kong’s rent is expensive, many people would rather save up more money to purchase an apartment instead of renting one. Secondly, the Chinese traditional value of family is that the parents are the ones who brought you up. When you become an adult, you should also take good care of your parents and you should spend more time to be with them. And of course there are people who are still dependent on their parents for food, clothing, household chores, etc.

我想談談我離開家自己生活的經驗。離開家自己生活在香港不是非常常見。許多人即使有了一份體面的工作並且到了而立之年,他們仍然選擇和他們的父母住在一起。他們其中的很多人直到結婚都會一直和父母在一起。這背後有幾個原因——首先,香港的房租很貴,比起租個房子許多人寧願攢多點錢買個公寓。其次,中國傳統家庭價值觀是父母是把你養大的人。當你成年了,你應該同樣照顧他們並且你應該多花點時間與他們在一起。當然了有些人仍然在吃飯、衣著、家務瑣事等事情上依賴父母。

  • 【生活】你長期獨自生活的原因是什麼?
    這就引出了我喜歡獨自生活的第二個原因:別人的期望。總之,我第一次結婚25年前,那之前單身時還是會約會或談戀愛,但這總是涉及到他們對我的期望,而我則很不喜歡這樣,提前幾天約定好何時去晚餐或聚會也會變得很煩人。當約定的日子到來時,我可能會很期待,但我很可能不想去,而是穿著睡衣呆在家裡看一部好電影。這總是會導致問題。因為我的內向,男人們告訴我,我是他們認識的女人中要求最低的。
