Hey all,
I just felt the need to vent about this. So back in August, I moved into a 2 bedroom townhouse with a guy who had an ad on Craigslist. It should be noted that the guy was engaged at the time I responded to the ad and moved in. I needed to move to the area where the house was, but due the amount of traveling I do in my job, I figured it would be cost-effective to have a roommate. There was a girl who was set to be moving out (whose space I would be taking). Circumstances changed a bit and she needed to stay a bit longer, and I had no issue with that. I moved into the bedroom, and she just crashed on the futon downstairs. It is now April 15 (Happy Tax Day!), and she is still living here. Not only that, her and the guy roommate are now dating because his fiance left him back in December. I only found out that they were dating earlier this week by overhearing one of her conversations with our neighbors. You can’t make this stuff up guys…
I was able to put aside $800-$900 each month by living in this situation, but it has gotten too weird for me. Needless to say, I’ll be getting my own place, but I’ll only be able to put aside about $400 ($500 if I’m lucky) each month. I don’t think the extra money I’d save is worth me sticking around. The home doesn’t feel like a home to me.
Any thoughts?
