Come again when you actually have problems. Not when you imagine to have problems in the future.

These things will sort themselves out, stop worrying.

 

Its like the fetus thinking "How can I live the good life outside of this womb. Having to walk by myself, having to eat and chew food?" :D

Once you're put in the situation it'll become a habit soon enough and shouldn't take up too much of your day if you do a little bit of every day :)

You want to make this stuff a habit in the first place because it all stems from self-love- e.g preparing healthy and nutritious food often to energize yourself and having a clean home to live in all gives you the foundation to carry on with your life purpose or whatever for the rest of the day

Everyone has to do these things, it's just part of life, no one's going to do them for you once you're independent.  Start training yourself now to do all these things for yourself, you'll find practice makes perfect, but be wary of giving your parents a heart attack when they see you helping ;)  You will find all good habits you learn before you leave the nest will stand you in good stead.  Learn to do your routine things to provide a basic tempo for your day, so that looking after yourself becomes second nature/requires little thought and you can then devote your energy to the less mundane for the rest of the day.

You ask @Leo Gura to do these chores for ya! (if he's not too busy wanking it to his porn collection)


I'm not friendly.

Im telling you; you dont have a problem right now. So how can we help you?

Move out of your parents house and then, if you still have problems with doing the dishes or washing clothes, ask again. I have trust in you that you will find a way to manage.

@John Iverson 

Definitely learn from your mom while you’re still at home :-) I live by myself and I do a little bit of tidying and cleaning everyday so it’s never overwhelming. You could ask your mom how often she roughly cleans and make some kind of loose schedule to begin with. 

Also, reframe housework as something positive :-) This video has great advice on that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsJiznzUJGM
Alternatively, you could listen to podcasts or ebooks while cleaning to make it a bit more interesting.

It’s just part of growing up, I’m sure you’ll manage :-)
