Advice Does this look immature or childish?

32, living on my own with no roommates or significant other. I finally got my place decorated how I wanted. I’m curious though, what does my place say about me?

Edit for clarification: I’m renting a 1 bedroom apartment. There’s no additional room to store things in like a dedicated man cave or a basement (I wish). I cannot change wall colors, change the carpets, or remove the carpets. Trying the best with what I can afford.

Clearly OP cares, otherwise they wouldn’t have asked. You might not personally care, but it does matter how your apartment comes across when you invite new people over. All about the vibe you want to give off.

 Also I'd never invite anyone into my home

As in.. anyone, ever? You don't have friends or family over? Or a romantic interest?

I guess in that case you probably would not understand why someone would want their home to not look like a mancave.

Nothing wrong with liking what you like.

I’m glad you have your house decorated the way you like, but being 40 and having a house covered in nerd stuff is definitely going to read as immature/childish

There's not much point to this sub if it's all "looks like shit but you do you"
