      This all depends on your area of expertise, but in general, I would say you either get to pick your job or pick where you live, not both. If it is a specialized type of work, you need to move to wherever they have positions. If you’re okay working retail, you can work anywhere.

    $1800 lease breaking fee. It’s up in March and even that feels like it’s going to break my sanity. I’ll get there though.

      A friend has gotten lucky by talking to the landlord and explaining the situation they were dealing with. They kindly allowed them to break the lease with no fee. Well, the only “fee” was leaving halfway through that month’s rent. Their situation wasn’t anything dangerous like domestic violence, but a sweet opportunity they got that involved relocating. The landlord was a sweet person and waived the fee as “new chapter in life fund”.

      Or maybe the landlord will agree because they already have someone lined up for a higher rent and it’s worth it idk lol.

      I don’t know what kind of landlord you have, so your mileage may vary. Never hurts to ask when there is no penalty. The fee won’t go up :)

        I appreciate the input, but I think I’m just going to ride it out. It’s greystar, which bought the building after I moved in but I am the idiot that renewed the lease after without finding out more about them. Big national company colluding with other big national companies and documentation of them telling their managers not to ever negotiate.

          Corporations are the devil and they are buying up all the whole housing industry and we are all becoming victimized by it.

    This was a very neat experiment indeed! Even though I started it about mid-way on my grief period.
    Every time I thought about the lady that left me, I clicked my clicker (the red line).

    We were together for 1-2 months. I recall it took 2-3 months to get over it.

    I simply don’t won’t to carry on without them. There is more to it but that’s most of it. All I have are boxes of aches now.

      Hey there. I’ve been there. It’s so hard and seems impossible, you’re completely right. My heart aches for you.

      Take some time to grieve and start to get back to a routine, slowly expose yourself to people by going to a restaurant or aquarium. Reflect on how you can feel connected to the world again, think of what brings you joy and start to do it again. Or even, what you think would bring you joy and dip your foot in it. Go for a road trip to a nearby forest or mountain or piece of nature that you haven’t taken the time to visit yet. Breathe some fresh air daily. You can do this, you can move forward. You aren’t leaving them behind. Some days get easier and some don’t, but you can get through it.

    Divorce in my country means I will basically never see my son again.
