Great advice She did give me money up front to move in but not being able to pay is what got me in the snag. Work doesn't allow advances and I get paid enough to pay for this place the problem was the surgery that made me get behind in the first place. Being alive was a bit more important on the scales. I do usually keep it pretty cheap when it comes to food for myself. I can make 20 last a couple weeks if need be with some creativity.
I've had really bad experiences with roommates in the past from craigslist and going there again makes me really hesitant. This whole problem was rolled up when it came to my surgery. I got some help paying for it but I had to take care of it. Yeah, I had given her the option to be added on the lease but she was hesitant and got added as a resident instead of something more permanent until we could catch up and move into a two bedroom, oh well on that one, huh.
I wish I had some stuff to sell for money but I don't. I lost all of my collection due to stupidity so I don't have much of value besides my computer and my personal belongings (clothes and things of that sort).
Yeah, I know my leniency is what got me into this in the first place with my last couple roommates. I just have a really bad anxiety disorder and confrontation is the last thing I can do without breaking down and I'm already at that point because of this crap out of nowhere, especially twice. When I do buckle down on people and tell them to pay me rent they just break down and run off. Maybe it's a generational thing. My past couple roommates have been much younger than me and maybe they just don't understand the concept of consequences.
Honestly, I just have a sinking feeling her parents have been up her ass and she wanted a reason to have to go back home that wasn't entirely willing on her end. She has a lot of domestic issues and it's a big part of the reason she moved in with me for the relaxed environment. Now as far as I'm concerned if she wants to go back so badly and leave me with this crap, I won't be sympathetic even when I do have a need for help myself. Maybe that's the wrong thing to say...
