I just want to know if anyone hates it as much as me or has very similar experiences.
Have you ever been stuck in a living situation you couldn't get out of and you absolutly hated it?

My ex was awful, stole from me, didn't pay rent or bills, was a total deadbeat. Finally (after 3 years) I rented a new house and left. He left the place in shambles and my landlord had to keep my security deposit >.< but, it happens. You learn.

Living with my ex-husband for near ten years.
I finally broke free - I told him the marriage was over. He left the following week.

I once stayed with roommates during my first semester of college & one of their sister's had it in for me. She stole/used beauty products of mine without asking, would give me silent treatment ( i ask her something, no response), complained about any little thing i would do, would talk badly about me behind my back, etc. She never told me what i actually did to her, but mad sure to watch tv/ sing karaoke really loud until the wee hours of the morning during my finals week. I had to stay there until the semester was over so i ended up spending many nights at the university library or local coffee shop getting my work done. I also took up hobbies and made excuses to get out of the house during the weekends- like going to see a local art show, seeing someone's band play, joining a dancing how-to during, etc.

That happened to me when I was living with my ex. I was stuck with him for quite a while before I could get out...and it's happening to me again now. Apparently, I'm bad at this.

IF I need to go to the doctor, I dont even want to make an appointment because she would be the one giving me a ride. I asked her to get me some eye drops today and I would pay her. ONe of my eys wouldn't even open it had so much discharge and it dried while I slept. SHe got mad about how she didn't want to drive she's tired of driving for others. Apparently I was bothering her and ruining her day.

I went from living with my mom to on my own pregnant and then with my daughter when she was born. so, no.

Mine wasn't with a partner or family but I had a roommate who was horrible. I hated living with her. She would boss me around and get in my face & scream at me. This was back when I was younger and more introverted. I can't say that that would fly with me now though. Thankfully, my other roommates and I found another place and got out of there.
01/14/2011
Yeah, most my life.. just get out of it one way or another because things generally get worse not better when it comes to living situations.
01/14/2011
I've been pretty lucky. I've always had a good relationship with my family and friends, all of whom I've lived with at one time or another over the last 10 years. Now I live with my wife in our house. Over the last 4 years, I've never been happier.

My college roommate was a chain smoking alcoholic with terrible tastes in music and a potsmoking boyfriend who was always passed out naked on the floor on MY side of the room. She never went to class or did any studying, so she never understood why I needed to sleep or study, and when my frequent complaints to the college went ignored, I had to sleep elsewhere or not sleep at all. Thank goodness it only lasted a year, at which point I moved off campus.
Bad living arrangements can do a lot of damage to your life, and it's worth any inconvenience to get the hell out.

Freshman year of college I was in a dorm with two roommates in this tiny little room and both of them hardly spoke a word of English and did not attempt at all to get to know each other and me. It was a very quite and cramped all the time and I felt awkward bring friends or people over.

Toward the end of my marriage, I was pretty miserable most of the time, but I was stuck there, or at least thought I was. I found that not to be so true once we split up and my mom let me move in with her. Also, when I was about 18, I lived with my mom, but I didn't have a job or a car and I lived out in the country, too far from anywhere to actually walk to a job. I got out of that by getting married. I guess I kinda went in a big 'ole circle.

My most hated living situations were with some insane or just plain mean roommates in college. I'm SO glad to be out of that stage!
01/15/2011
Absolutely..I'm in college saving money and am living with my parents.
01/16/2011
I went from living with my Mom to living with my Dad. Mom was passive aggressive and didn't want me to grow up. Dad didn't seem to want and emotional responsibility in raising my brother and me, I had a breakdown about a year ago and things are finally starting to get better. I am still treated like a child in many ways, in some ways that is good. Dad has somewhat actively kept me from saving money when I was employed (basically I could spend the money I earned on what I wanted or it went to school, if I spent it on recreation he would give me money for school) I still have a long way to go and need to bring myself to apply for a job soon. sooo I guess what I am saying is that I am frustrated with being a 24 year old child with no prospect of growing up until I graduate and since I have been sick graduation is looking further away then ever. Hopefully this time when I get a job I will be able to put some money away for when I graduate because I have no idea when I am going to be cut off, I just hope he lets me graduate.

I lived at home to save money through all four years of college. I hated it and felt trapped and left out because most of my friends lived in dorms, and worried that I missed out on a lot - plus, it put a strain on my relationship with my parents and I fought with them a lot.
In retrospect, I'm actually glad that I did decide to live at home. If I had lived on my own, I would be up to my ass in debt and damn sure wouldn't have the apartment that I'm now living in.

I was perfectly content originally living at home with my parents. I would go to college during the week and spend the weekend at home with them, which was really important to me because my dad was surely but slowly dying of stage four lung cancer. However, halfway through my first year of college my dad took incredibly ill, and he and my mom were forced to move out of our house to live with my sister and brother in law. Looking back now I know the reason why they forced my mom and dad to do it, because there is no way my mom could've taken care of my dad. So I was pretty much homeless other than having a dorm room for a year and a half. I was originally told I could go and live with my sister and brother in law too when I wasn't attending college. But as soon as they had to commit to that, they told me I couldn't live with them.
So I made the worst mistake of my life. I lived in a living situation for nine months where I payed rent, I bought food and took care of the bills. I was pretty much supplying for three people to live. Which is incredibly hard to do when you make 600 dollars a month working at Walmart.
The whole thing ended horribly. It ended with my female roommate (who's mom owned the house) calling my mom at nine o'clock at night screaming at her. It was horrible. Luckily I got moved out and my ex roommate moved to Seattle. She hates me so much for what happened I'm in fear for my life if she ever moves back to town.

I live at home, have an unsupportive family, and have no way to support myself if I ever move out. My dad is slowly going crippled, my grandma is turning into a hypochondriac, and shit just seems to hit the fan. Same job of 4 years, I don't even make 50 cents more than min wage and live in a very expensive state. I can't even drive and the bad economy takes it's toll on me when I try to find a new, better job which is impossible, and continuing education is a no-go due to the expenses required just to get a BA. Salt in the wound is my bf lives in another state, and chances of me ever moving out to be with him are slim to nil as I feel obligated to help my family despite them not being the best and basically taking advantage of me. Coupled with my depression and panic disorder, it's very very hard for me to function as an adult on my own without any support.
So yeah, living at home until i hit my 30s more than likely.

I want to be able to help pay the bills,by my own food,my ibs tea,supplements,a few household supplies and be able to have a few extras in life I can afford.

I was living with someone who was about as mature as a toddler. He wouldn't find employment to help with the bills and I was doing it all on my own. At 24, it was not somewhere I wanted to be in life but I felt so damn guilty about kicking him out. I eventually told his parents what I wanted to do and they set him up with temporary housing and I moved out. I left everything I owned. Everything. It was the best decision I ever made.

It's nice to have extras, it really is. It's also nice to walk into a house free of tensions and resentment, a home you can throw your stuff wherever you please and pick up when you please, a place to be yourself. Stress irritates the immune system. It'll be a different kind of stress, much more manageable because it's YOUR stress not someone else's thrown in your lap. I lived in miserable conditions for a good portion of my early 20's. Every day of that part of my life was a huge waste.
There's something really rewarding in finding ways to save that extra buck or three so you can buy the video game next week. I know when I finally left and went on my own, I felt so much more confident in myself. Maybe you will, too. Nobody knows anything, so take the leap and see. (If you've never seen it, I highly suggest watching Joe vs The Volcano. It's a great movie.)

Yeah, My late husband was really emotionally/verbally abusive... It really was hard to break away, took me about 3 years and him dying to get out of there. We had lived together for like 6 years, dated for 2 and were married for 1 year. I am honestly not sure that I wouldn't have gone back again...I know its not the same as not having the money to get out but sometimes its just as difficult.
