I'm planning on moving in with my aunt. I've never been married and been independent for years. This is a big change for me. My aunt is 70 years old and is a control freak because it's her way or else. Most people tell me not to do it and I will be sorry. What do you think about this?

Why would you consider moving in with her? Does she need your help? Do you need her? cuz I will just feed this back to ya...
Stay in my own place, used to my ways, my stuff, my privacy, my life OR move in with controlling 70 year old aunt? HMMMM.... tough choice?
I have a very mean aunt that I think could be related to satan; however, I would never move in with her. I went to visit for the holidays a while back, she paid for the trip, when I got there she was a major downer ....I couldn't stand 10 minutes of her droning and negative monologues. She looked and sounded like Jabba The Hut on valium and wine. It was pitiful. So I left early.
The reason behind this my uncle that live with her died and she now has nobody that will stay with her. Funny thing about this is her own children and grand children refuse to stay with her. My aunt is a worry wart also. She thinks of things to worry about that havn't even happened yet. If I do move in I must have a travel trailer in the yard to excape from her when she gets on my nerves.
With all due respect if you ain't no licensed social worker or psychiatric assistant then the most you can do is cart her off to a mental hospital, you don't need to feel sorry for her or worry about her. Not even her own children like her. She must be an awful person.

Really nice gesture. If you have a way to take care of yourself too then perhaps some selflessness, with really well communicated boundaries and agreements would be a cool thing for you both. After all, not much growth from the easy stuff...
My little sis died 2 years ago, I moved back to SD to live with my mom (70) to help her. It was very helpful to me as well. I found out a lot about me! I kept in mind that I made the choice and that "when" (not if) she got on my nerves, that it was my responsibility to take care of my attitude and I could not take it out in her.
Hope this helps... good luck. and good for you for being so kind and compationate
Her children don't hate her or she don't hate them it's because she worrys about everything and love's to complain and she love's to work people to death around the house. She's is always doing something and cann't sit still for one minute. By the way she has a huge back yard for me to park my trailer. What funny also I've never been married and she has been married four times so we will be odd roommates.
