Voting Question: why am I so lonely living alone even though I have friends?
I have just graduated from uni after living for three years with friends. I returned home and as I live in a remote village with very few people my own age my parents thought I wud be lonely and said they wud pay my rent for a one bedroom apartment in the city I went to uni. I was so excited. I wud have my own apartment!! However 4 months into living on my own I admit defeat. Although surrounded by friends I am desperately lonely. I have tried everything. I have bought a pet, had friends round every day, try to spend most of my time out the flat and have joined societies etc. But I am still desperately lonely. Eventhough I have human interaction everyday. At home in my remote village the only people I see most of the day are my parents and every week an old friend. However I am not in the slightest lonely when here! Yes I do feel like life can be a bit boring and I miss the wild times but I am home now and feel so happy. I just cnt understand how I am lonely in the city living alone but surrounded by friends, when I am not lonely living in the middle of nowhere with just my parents. Can someone try and explain that to me? Also I am due to go back to my flat on Tuesday ad the thought just makes me wanna cry. How can I tell my parents I'm getting depressed and lonely up there?and for thoe of u who say get a roommate...all my friends live with their parents and dnt want to move out. Believe me I have tried!!! moreVoting Question: Rent: Is my mum being unreasonable?
I'm 22 and as of August 1st I have started renting an apartment in a different city to start college in September. I am still at home, waiting for my friend and I to sort stuff out for moving (hours at work to finish, moving stuff etc.) and my mum is still demanding rent, meaning I am paying rent twice. Ps. My sister lives at home 3, maybe 4 days per week and does not pay rent at home. She is 20. moreResolved Question: Where can I advertise my apartment for rent during the Ryder Cup for free?

Hi im 19, and im looking to get my own place by the time im 20 (about 9 months). I already have 2,000 dollars saved and i plan on adding at least 6,000 to my bank before I get my own place. So with a starting budget of 8,000 dollar, what kind of place should I get? Should i look in to buying a house?(a long term investment), an apartment?(temporary place to live) A townhouse/home(dunno even know what this is completely) or a Condo?? Should I rent? Should I buy? I'm just a first time "my own place" buyer and I want to know which is the best option for me. Can anyone out there help ? moreResolved Question: Corporate wife wants to visit motherhood?
I have 3 fantastic children under 12 years old and i have been the house husband for all off them from the time they were born. Its a fantastic job and pretty hard sometimes. My wife, a highly ambitious International executive has been hot on the job ever since i can remember. In the last few years it seems like she has been away travelling more than being at home. We have had our disagreements over the years but like her ambition in her career, i was very ambitious for the families future as i thought she was and later to discover that she had long given up on the family and was solely ambitious for herself, her own fabulous life style & future. As her wage increased she just spent more and more money on herself & lifestyle than ever to the point where i was constantly battling / late to pay the rent, school fees, holidays, and children's demands. The big job opportunity to relocate to Boston USA came up, and she was frantic to accept the position. By this time the relationship was on the rocks. None of us (the kids & I ) ever really saw here anymore, yet she insisted on us all relocating to the USA. I finally agreed when she made the offer that we could all make a new start there. Less travel, less spending, more family time. Yet again i trusted her intentions but within a matter of months the travelling was even worse and the very expensive clothing shops & glamorous high cost lifestyle beckoned her back. New country, new city i buried my head in the sand and got on with taking care of the kids along with setting up in a new country. Mid second year of being in the USA our relationship became estranged. It seemed like it was the kids and me and we had a visitor occasionally, my wife. it was at this time that i got it full force, "you don't do anything, you need to get a job, its all my money, i will do what i want with it, my job comes first, i will do what i like with it without it you couldn't have any of this." it was at this stage i came to realise that i was nothing more than a cheap nanny and she even threatened to replace me with one. By the end of the year the top job in her company came up and she was on to it with all guns blazing, nothing got in her way. Her determination was frightening and Boston became unbearable. It was time to go home. They gave the job to someone else and embarrassed by her failure she quit the firm and then decided to quit being employed altogether. After living and breathing the company, not saving a cent, she informed me that we were now reversing our roles. She would look after the children full time and i was to get a job. Sounded good, but she knew nothing about children and i knew nothing about the work force, having not worked for 14 years and her being used to accessing a million dollar plus per year income - i was therefore concerned ! Five weeks later, we are all back home now, kids at yet another school, and we are renting another apartment. Since she decided to quit her career, but trust me, made sure she spent every bit of the money, by buying up big in the USA before arriving back home, (she has about 600 pairs of shoes). So, therefore came home with no money and not interested in getting a job. Well i wasn't able to get "the job" in time and we have separated even though i am absolutely against it. I feel its not the right thing to do for the family. I am feeling lost, emotional, used, naive. I feel like i am loosing the family that i brought up and she has dumped her family (work) and instead of joining together she is swapping control of her work family and demanding control of this family and dividing it. I miss my wife, and now i am going to miss my children some of the time as well. What should i do? moreResolved Question: Who's in the wrong here - Parents Vs. Daughter - need opinions for family "meeting"?
I will try to keep this as short as possible without leaving out any important details so I can get the most accurate opinions out of u guys.. Heres the situation: My fiance and I are 22 and living with my parents so we can save up the $10,000 we need to put down on our 1st home. We pay them rent, and also pay for my mothers cigarettes, some groceries, do laundry, lawn work and home repairs in the mean time. We have a little 2 room apartment.. a bedroom and a Living room. No kitchen or bathroom. My father's computer room is right on the other side of our main door (which is fine, idc.. usually) Both of our entry doors have locks on them my DAD installed so we can have "privacy" Now, to start.. I have asked my dad to leave our entry door closed at all times because his cat sneaks into my room and pees on my clothes, bed and couch. I have a cat as well, and when his cat pees in HER litter pan, she won't go in it and will pee on the carpet instead. As a result of this "pee-war" my entire apartment reeks of potent piss. He still leaves the door open. And yesterday, when I came home he was screaming and really mad, yelling at me that my cat is ruining his carpet and I need to get rid of her. Than he said he was having a cleaner crew come to the house to clean my apartment and he is having them bill ME. This is AFTER I have told me (almost daily) to leave my door closed, and why. His answer to this was always the same "I have to leave that door open for air flow, otherwise MY computer room gets hot" but leaving the door open makes out bedroom incredibly hot, and now the pee.. Is this really fair? Next, My dad installed the locks, but won't respect our privacy. He actually made a KEY that opens the lock.. he didn't make a copy, he made his own - home-made key. He doesn't knock first, he just tries the door (no matter if we're awake, sleeping or watching tv) pops the lock and comes in. When I ask him to leave because he will just stand there as we watch tv and talk loudly with our dogs and throw toys in front of the tv and get the dogs all excited. We tried ignoring him, asking him to leave, nothing works.. he'll just stay there for an hour sometimes, and if I get mad he'll say "its my house, I can go where I want and do as I please" ... we're paying rent, is this really fair? He evens comes in while I'm changing and one time caught my in my bra and panties and just stood there talking to me!!! I asked him to leave cuz i was naked and he goes "ur my kid, I've seen everything when u were a baby" I didn't have boobs and hips when I was a baby.. I told him this really creeped me out and he got mad at me... girls, if ur dad did this.. what would you think? Creepy or normal? Lastly, they won't obey MY rules about MY dogs. I don't ask much.. don't let them jump on ppl or bark at ppl and don't let them eat garbage.. but my mom ignores me and gives my great dane plastic POP bottles to chew on (the ones u buy at a gas station, empty of course.. but still). I got mad and yelled at her one day cuz my great dane chewed open a full 2liter of mt. dew and told her its teaching her bad behaviours.. he actually LAUGHED at me and said I was being over-controlling and to lighten up. Than yesterday, I caught my mom giving my dog plastic throw away cup to chew on and destroy. Her lips were cut a little from it and I yelled at my mom again for it and she got REALLY mad.. like really mad and started screaming at me, calling me controlling and told me to get rid of the dogs cuz I don't make them happy cuz I'm always telling them "no". My great dane is 1yr old.. anyone else still training their 1yr old dogs? I told her we had TONS of toys downstairs.. rubber bones, tires ect. But she just ignored me and walked away. I feel like I'm going crazy.. so I'm staging a sit down meeting tommorrow with my parents and I want to show them YOUR answers. Be completely honest! If you think I AM being over-controlling and unfair, say so. If you think the opposite side is being unreasonable, say that too. I want your 100% HONEST opinions. Thank you. moreResolved Question: Studio Flats in London. PLEASE HELP!!!?
I am an unemployed student living in London. I would like to move out of my parents home and rent a studio flat for about six months as I will be in my final year and would like to work in total piece and quiet, also to gain some independence and responsibility. I have some questions for people who have experience in renting studio flats. First of all, as I am unemployed and have no savings, would my landlord be OK with it if I spend my student loan (which I have saved from the beginning of my course) to pay the rent? Are we allowed to do this or would my landlord snitch me to the government and say that I am using their money (which is non-repayable) to spend on rent? (which is over £4000 for six months!!) I personally think as I'm entitled to that money, I should be able to spend it how I want. Also, with those studio apartments in conversion flats that are on the top floor, how do the tenants get in? i.e see picture: http://www.foxtons.co.uk/search?location_ids=290&photo_page=1&price_to=1000&prop_type=flats&property_id=731894&resource=photo&search_form=map&search_type=LL&submit_type=search There is only a ground floor entrance - does this mean that entrance is shared by all living in the block - if so, how can these flats be described as self-contained???? Thanks for your help.thank you very much TROJAN!! moreVoting Question: Shoud I end my relationship?
I have been with my boyfriend for a year and he moved into my apartment in April. Previously he had been living with his two sisters. We got engaged two weeks ago. However, I am extremely dissapointed and upset with my fiancee. Firstly, he sister is getting married tomorrow. Although I have met all the family I have not been invited to the wedding. I am ver hurt by this and said to my fiancee I either think he should insist on taking me to the wedding or not go himself as I feel that Ihave not been shown any respect. There is more to the story as his younger sister who is not getting married has stored all her belongings in my apartment( on my agreement) and has not even had the decency to contact me. I feel that my fiancee has made more effort for his sister's wedding than our own. He even got a salary advance for the ticket to go home(he is Moroccan and I am English) He is supposed to start helping me towards the rent but I don't know how he will be able to do this now. Am I right to be feeling like this? I feel very hurt and let down moreVoting Question: landlord reading tenants mail and entering property when not home?

We have been roommates before, in fact that is how we met 20 years ago. I thought she would be more fair minded when it came to all the normal issues that come up with roommates. In the past we were equal as we were each renting a room in a house. This time I moved into her apartment with her daughter. I am paying over 1/3 what it costs her to live there. She tends to be messy, so I stressed that although I can tend to have a cluttery bedroom I am used to the commen ereas being clean. I can't stand stinky stuff or food left out for days. I object to having to clean the Kitchen before I can cook anything. Well, not to go into every detail but it was my understanding that we were in agreement to the common ereas being kept clean, not perfect as I don't mind a dish or 2 just not filthy. Plus I would like to use the toilet without having to move their stuff every time, or walking on it. I was supposed to be able to have a friend over once in a while and use the front room once in a while. I was supposed to be able to put a cabinett in the dining room erea to use for my stuff. I thought I would have close to 1/3 of the space in the kitchen and bathroom and wouldn't mind if it was a little less but she allows me less than 1/6 of the space and one tiny tiny tiny corner in the freezer. Plus the spaces she gave me were the harder to get to spaces. When I expressed that I felt this was unfair she just dug her feet in and let me know that I can think that if I want, but what she offered is what I get. She also acts as if my presence in the house is invading her space. She hates talking about issues so I held alot of stuff in. Then she insisted I move the stuff I had in her garage (she offered the space then afterwards let me know it was only meant to be temporary. She thinks I knew this before I moved the stuff in but I didn't and just didn't argue with her about it) and at the same time announced I would not be able to move the cabinett in the kitchen. That was my last straw since she was already avoiding me and treating me like I was a crazy tirent. She would not let me know when she was home or when she was not, but complained when she didn't know my schedule. She would not sit down and discuss anything or put anything in writing as we had agreed to do before I moved in. I am too horrified at the horrible mess and smell in the house to even consider having a friend over. I have waited for over 3 months for her to get this taken care of. Yet I have paid the rent in full and on time. I have cleaned up their mess in the kitchen several times(not just normal mess but crusted up and spoiled food etc.) and she had the nerve to mention that I spilled something on the stove once! So I lost my temper after all this and wrote her a couple of emails venting how I felt. I said twice "I hate you right now" and she took strong issue with that. She said that I cross the line and "I'm done with you" and gave me the silent treatment for weeks. I don't know if she meant forever or temporarily. She said I wasn't a safe person. I already know she thinks a "true" friend wouldn't complain about the messy house, even though she knew befor I moved in that it would be an issue with me. She said before I moved in that she was just glad I wouldn't be so picky as to complain about a coffee cup or 2. Again, I am upset because I am paying over 1/3 of what it costs her to live in the apartment! Plus I feel unappreciated and like my presence is a bother. I feel like she wants me to keep my mouth shut and only speak if spoken to, and that would be about once every month or two. She feels crowded I know. I am willing to work stuff out, but can't if she keeps insisting on having it all her way. I am considering not giving her the whole rent this next month as I am not getting what we agreed on. I can't move because I can't afford to right now. Plus we have been friends for 20 years and I would like to save the friendship if possible. Right now I am so angry that I don't see why I would want to save the friendship, but I figure any long term friendship will hit hard times and hopefully it might be worth it ????? What do you think?Oh, I wanted to add that I did appologize sincerely for saying "I hate you right now" Within a day or two. She has not appologized and I couldn't tell if she even excepted mine as she was just silent. Plus the ;main issue I find I just can not keep my mouth shut about is the odor from the cat box that not only hits me when I come in the door, makes me gag when I am trying to cook and often times goes into my room even with the door closed! Her daught is 14 and supposed to take care of it and the kitchen but I don't complain to the daughter as it is not my place to say anything to her daughter about it. moreResolved Question: Leaving home at 18....?
I am 18 and I am currently attending classes at community college. I am failing literally every class. I wasn't good with school in high school either. My parents are under the impression I am doing fine though. I'm in NY right now but my best friend moved to arizona a few years ago. He is being offered to open his own metlife insurance branch and says I can work for him ($8/hr + Commission) and we can get a apartment together and split the rent. My parents WILL NOT be open to this idea. I have not been on good terms with them lately (I owe them $5,000 - Long story). I have the plane tickets booked and a place to stay until we get an apartment. I am thinking of just leaving and leaving a note and a phone number for my parents. Is this a good idea? moreResolved Question: Economy 7 electric heating?
Hi, my husband and I are looking at new properties to rent while we save up the deposit for our dream home! We're looking at new builds, apartment complexes mainly and have noticed that a lot of them are using electric heating instead of gas. We've had a look online at different electric heating that is available, economy 7 and economy 10 and others (electric panel radiators). We are just wondering how they work and what the difference is to using gas? Have you had or are you using electric heating? Do they heat a property adequately? Are they ridiculously expensive to run? What are the different kinds? We heard that there are 2 tariffs, day and night, and that a common mistake is having the meter read wrong and being charged way too much. Has anyone had this? Just any information anyone has would be much appreciated as there are some properties we really like but don't want to go ahead with them if electric heating is a big mistake. We are expecting a baby in August and need to be able to keep our property warm next winter. Thanks! moreResolved Question: Should I rent or buy an apartment?
I am a 21 year old professional in the oil industry, income is £2000 - £3000 and I have no debt and £13000 in savings. However, I still live at my parents because I don't have a secure location. The company might want me to move to Paris or wherever (Yet, I can turn them down and it will be for a management position where I don't speak french and I look 18 years old). I just really wish to move out. I've been single for a little while and I think the problem might be the 'meet the parents' about 1 week into dating. Anyway, enough rambling. Pro - Buy house: Investment and equity Decorate it as my will. Pro - rent apartment: Gives me a lot of leg room to move about and break lease terms. Don't need to worry about my apartment while i'm on a contract. Additional information: I will be away from home for 6 months a year, on rotation 4 weeks on and off. I don't trust anyone enough to be a room/house mate and look after my property/apartment. So, if you were in my position where you have a stable job and can live anywhere in the world, what would you do? All constructive advice and insight welcome. moreResolved Question: 24 and have lots of money saved, should i buy this house?

I don't know what is wrong with me lately, but I've been stressed out and feeling really angry. I come home from working and my girlfriend is feeling down, but I don't sit down with her or anything I just go and have a shower when I get home. We're finding it hard to pay the rent on our apartment and that is kind of getting to me aswell. Me and my GF today had a massive argument which started about me never spending enough time with her and then it escalated to argueing over the rent etc, she ended up making me so angry I felt like punching her and at one point she was standing with her back against the wall, and I punched the wall instead of her. Everything is getting to me and her being pregnant also is making her stress out, then she starts shouting at me and we both get angry etc. I have never laid a finger on her since we have been together, but at the moment I'm stressing out and I actually for the first time wanted to hit her!

The story is going to be called weddings, funerals, and other miseries. I'm fifteen, I aced my English test last week and I've only edited this chapter once. Chapter one. It was another wet night for Alex, he locked up the shop, combed his slick, black hair and began to bike his way home, just like he did every other night. Alex had worked at the local music store for the past five years now, he got hired when he was fifteen by his Dad, who ran the store, and now Alex was in management; His parents died in a tragic accident, they were driving home from another wedding, for some reason his family liked weddings, funerals, any annoying gathering that forces misery or happiness onto everyone there. Of course, they were drunk. Driving by the cliffs near his seaside house, his Father swerved from the edge into the deep blue below them, the car wasn’t found for another two weeks, all that was left from each person was half a decaying corpse, Alex didn’t talk about this much, he hated it. The funeral was like any other, the same lot always arriving, one man arrived who Alex had never seen before, the man left before the wake when he was hoping he would be able to introduce himself. Alex moved into a new apartment, the depression of riding past the cliffs every day antagonized him, it made him more pissed off to be upset, that he would forget about being upset. Alex sat on his bed in his foggy, green swamp of a bedroom, and opened his draw where he kept all the savings he had, as well as his “special friend”. He pulled out a bag of white powder and walked into his living room. He poured some coke onto the glass coffee table that he lost his virginity on and began his favorite part, pulling out the razorblade and making fine lines, pouring out some wine to drink between lines. He was ready to snort the chemicals deep into his system. He rolled up a ten pound note and bent over the table, sniffing up line by line until he had finished three. He gulped down his blood red wine, tipped the rest of his Charlie into the bag and rolled up a joint. He turned on his old television and put on some Saturday morning cartoons, that was the strange thing about cocaine, Alex could stay up all night, and even weed wouldn’t tire him. He would stare at the walls then, just to end the high on a subtle note, watch some cartoons, baked out of his mind, sinking deeper into the sofa. There was a knock at the door “Rent money…rent money…rent money!!” Alex leapt into his bedroom and grabbed the one hundred pound for this week. He opened the door to see an old woman, somewhere in her eighties: purple hair, too much make up, curlers in. “Her you go Mrs. Wench. All one hundred, I love your red hair today.” Alex always gave her a compliment, just so she wouldn’t get annoyed with him and decide to search the flat. She always preferred having her hair called red, even she doesn’t know why, the crack around her lips looked like various canals leading into a big see of red lipstick. “Oh fuck off you little shit, I know what you’re up to!” ”And a nice day to you too, Mrs. Wench!” He called after her on her way down the corridor. moreResolved Question: Im depressed/have anxiety, don't know what to do?

Husband says i spend too much and have to get rid of my housekeeper and au pair?
I'm a 31yr old female. My husband has a really good business but with the recession hes going through a bit of a slow period with the business. I dont work, i'm a stay at home mom. We have a beautiful home on the outskirts of town gifted to us by my husbands father. We have 2 beautiful apartments we rent out as investments and thank the lord they are almost paid for when my business was booming, he made wise choices by paying off alot of debts with the extra money we earned. So we want for nothing. I own a sports car all paid for. I have one child (a 3 yr old). She goes to a little nursery a few hundred yards from the house where i know she is looked after really well. I have a lovely au pair and a housekeeper for the ironing and cooking so i can have 'me' time for looking after myself, for the gym, walking, yoga and my art classes. They are like my sisters,not the help. I feel its important for a woman to have outlets and not be at home with the children 24/7. Then your time together is quality time not yucky stress time where you end up biting and snapping at each other. My husband has come up with a suggestion which i am most unhappy with. He wants me to spend more time in the home and only have a housekeeper for ironing and also to spend more time with our daughter. He says it will save a fortune. My mums most disgusted, she says how is a woman suppposed to survive without full time help in the home? Pleae help. I dont want to row with my husband, but i dont want my lovely au pair and housekeepers to not be around anymore, they are my life line. We even go for days shopping. He is also starting to complain because i spend so much money looking good, on designer clothes. Where do i go from here? How do i get my old generous husband back? moreResolved Question: Anyone furious with welfare scroungers living in your estate?
Anyone sick of 'families' going on about how 'tough' the recession is just coz they've bought a house they could not afford in the first place and because they decided to have all these kids they could not afford. I'm a 27 yr old female. I bought a property (that i could afford to pay for) at 23. I had enough saved for a down payment from summer jobs since i was 18...at 16 i started working Saturdays in a supermarket owned by my aunt. I worked my way to getting a supervisors position ther at 17. I lived at hom til i was 23. I never went out clubbing, dont drink, dont smoke. I worked through uni. I even had a job in the evenings in uni. My apartment is a small 2 bedroom in a nice area. My partner is 28 and has just been given a promotion. He inherited a lovely house around the corner belonging to his Grandmother. He worked hard and has it done up and 2 rooms rented out, even though he doesnt have to rent them, hes taking the extra money. We are dating 6 years. We said we were not getting married in a big splash wedding. So, we are renting out a lovely restaurant belonging to his friend and having a bash for just 24 guests on new years day. Thats our wedding. We both have the equivilant of 2 years salary each saved. We both have our little cars paid for (nothing fancy) just what we could afford, we bought them same day and paid for 75% of them with cash. My partner has same approach to finance, if you cannot afford it, dont buy it. We dont join gyms, we walk everywhere. We dont eat out only once per month, we shop in aldi. And guess what? I've been made redundant and 'mummies' at work have been kept on. The same bores who were always slacking off and going home early or not turning up coz Johnny has a toothache. My partner and i didnt have kids, as we are not finanically secure enough although we are in strong financial positions compared to most folk. Now my mum has told me shes giving me the money to pay the rest of my mortgage. I wanted to do that alone, not have to take money from my mother. I feel so bitter towared low lifes takign money off the government. When i see how tough life has been for my partner and i to get to where we are. We never got breaks or stuff handed to us. I'm just eaten up by all this. Now i learn a single mom lives next door council paying for house. Why do they get everything an nothign for my partner and i ? People who do everything right? moreResolved Question: need serious advice extremely upset rite now?

How do I rent without reference / credit score?
I recently moved to London from another EU country. I got my job and now I would like to rent an apartment. I already exchanged my driving license to a UK one so I have a proof of address at where I'm staying at temporarily - but do not pay any rent as I'm staying with friends. I checked a few agencies' terms and conditions and some of them stated that I need to stay in the UK for 6 months before renting. And that I need reference from my previous landlord. And they will also carry out credit check. This is awesome because I have none of these from above, as I moved to London like 2 weeks ago, and before that I've been living with family at my home country and because I haven't worked in the UK yet, I won't have any credit score. I don't know what to do. Any ideas? Thanks moreResolved Question: What do you think of this plot?
This is my first attempt at thinking of a plot or anything. Here's where i've got to so far. Sorry it's long. It's the summer holidays, Leah's mum Karen has told her that they are both going to stay at Bishop Hill, a town at the other end of the country for the whole summer. Leah is 16 and very stubborn and selfish. Her mum tell her why they are going - her best friend since child hood (Julia) is dying. She's bedridden at home and is being cared for by her 17 year old son Adam. Leah is still pissed off, she can only think of herself and what fun she'll miss out on. They arrive at Bishop Hill and stay with them in their house. Julia tells Karen that she wants her to look after Adam and her house. Karen and Leah aren't really well off and are struggling to pay their rent for their apartment in the city. Meanwhile Adam is being very stand off-ish with Leah. He is understandably down about his mum dying. Leah sees him struggling to stay on the straight and narrow and can't believe how selfish she has been. One week later Julia dies. After the funeral Julia goes back to her apartment to pack up - they are moving to Bishop Hill full time. Leah accepts this almost straight away and Adam is depressed. One night Leah wakes up to Adam screaming. He says that something was trying to drag him out of bed. For the next few days he keeps telling Leah that he keeps seeing, hearing and feeling things. He thinks it's his mum. Leah hasn't seen anything and thinks it's just his way of dealing with his mums death. The next day she wakes up and he's stood at the end of her bed, he says there is people in his room. Leah goes and looks but no one is there. She thinks there is something wrong. She phones her mum and tells her that she thinks something is wrong with Adam. Her mum says she'll be home in about 9 days so she'll sort it all out then. Later that day they are both in the kitchen cleaning up when BANG there is a loud noise from upstairs. Really loud like a wardrobe has been tipped over, then the cupboard doors start to open and close etc. Leah looks at Adam and knows he isn't mad...he was telling the truth. It suddenly stops and Leah tries to brush it off as if there is a reasonable explanation for it all. Adam tells his friends to come around, he hasn't seen them since before his mum died. One of his friends brings her cousin Chloe and Chloe claims to be a psychic. Adam tells her that he thinks its his mum spirit whos in the house. She get's her Ouija board out and they play, it say's it isn't Adams mum. They then do a seance, Chloe comes out crying. She says what ever is in the house isn't Adams mum, it's evil. She explains that when someone dies in a house it leaves a 'portal' open where spirits get through. That's all i've got so far. I just want to know what people thing so far. Just one question, do you think there should be any romance between Adam and Leah? Thanks and don't be too harsh. moreResolved Question: Editing advice for an article?

I would like to pay it back in 4-5 years I rather sooner but I doubt I could afford the monthly payments if I pay it back sooner than 4 years. Which would I be better off with? I only have 5000.00$ in debt this year for college but next year I will be getting an apartment because I will be going to school 40 mins away from home. So I figured next year will cost about the same 5000.00$ plus the costs for an apartment which will prob be about 10 grand for a place, food and other expenses. So I worked it out to being about 500$ a month for payments If I want to pay it off in 4 years. So would I be better with fixed 3.0% or floating at 0.5%? I also need to take in consideration if something happens like my parents want me to move out i wont be able to pay 500$ a month plus rent for an apartment. So which would I be better with I'm going to try to put as much on it as possible after I get my diploma and can work but I don't know if i can always put 500$ on it every month. My min payment will be about 250$/month. and next year I'm going to try and work part time so i can put money on my loan. This year I can't work unless it's under the table and I can't find anything not even a babysitting job. If I work and it's not under the table i'm scared I wont qualify for a big enough loan for next year to cover my tuition, and apartment. So im kind of trapped until next year unless an under the table job comes up. Is it true that it's cheaper to get a student line of credit from a bank? I know you have to start paying right away but it might be better than having to wait a year before i can get a job to start paying on my loan. any stories you have to share will be great thanks. and im located in Canada just if you need to know. moreResolved Question: not wise to leave your parents home?
unless you want to get married. I am of the opinion that if your parents are ok with letting you stay at home then it si good cause youw ill ahve less finacial and stress related problems.

I am 32 and i live with my parents(i already own a house but i am renting it out) i offred them to pay some rent but they said they don't need money(they are in a comfortable situation money wise). I will never go back and live on my own. Especially with the current economic situation.

Me and my partner moved into our apartment 2 months ago. I have since been having alot of problems with the younger teenagers from around the area. The lock on the front door which we share with the downstairs tenants was not secure. We informed our property management about this several times and nothing was done about it. Because of all the hassle we had from teenagers we did not sleep there on weekends as we did not feel safe because they threw bricks at the windows and had threatening behaviour towards us. Last weekend we came back to our apartment only to find that we had been broken into. All of our belongings, aswel as the landlords property had been damaged. As for the door not being secure enough it was easy enough for someone to break in without a struggle. now we want to move from this area only we have signed a 6 months agreement. Is there any way we can escape this situation without me or the guarantor having to pay all the rent in full. moreResolved Question: I'm sexually attracted to a 16 year old and I'm 30, how do I bring up sex?
PLEASE don't just read my headline and insult me without even having a clue of what I'm talking about..I asked this in another category, but would like to see if responses differ in this one. Due to work related reason I had to move to Canada,BC 2and a half weeks ago and will be living there for 6-8 months with a chance I'll be here permanently . I don't know anyone here so I just went onto the craigslist to look for a roommate who had a spare room. I was so lucky and found an ad in a perfect area, Male Seeking roommate in a nice and clean 2 bedroom apartment on 5th floor. I arranged everything and phoned him and then met him the next day, The apartment was beautiful ,there was alot of nice furniture and fairly affordable (550 each) and the guy was real cute and real nice too!and fairly affordable. So I thought this would be perfect and we made an agreement. I think it was the 29th of August I actually moved in. Jamie (my roommate) was living there for the last 3 months and his other roommate had to leave, and couldn't afford a 2 bedroom by himself. We got along from the start real well, Before I moved from the US I wasn't expecting anything at all. He showed me around Vancouver, its actually quite pretty here. I thought he was at least 24 or 25, until we were talking about work and then said he starts school in September and I asked what courses, and then laughed and said I'm in High school;WHICH is when I discovered he was 16. I was actually VERY impressed and couldn't believe he was only 16, but the reason he lives independently is because his father was an alcoholic who he lived with, and his mother was a religious fanatic who turned into a drug addict. He goes to school until 3, goes to the gym everyday, and then straight to his work at a warehouse until 11pm making $13 an hour and comes back home exhausted, pays his own rent and food,and then works again full time on Saturday from Noon and part time on Sunday so I have so much respect for him, and I really do think he's amazing. He resents his parents and does not talk to them, they do not support him in anyway either. I still don't know anyone around here, but he's the one person that I'd love to get to know better and hang out with while I'm living here, he's really interesting and kind but he doesn't have anyone, no brothers, he's all alone basically. Last Weekend, I asked him if he would like to stay home and hang out with me and we could spend all night watching movies together(we both have a good size collection) he seemed pretty happy about the idea and said sure. I was pretty excited I would get to bond with him a little more! That night I had my big blanket out with me on the couch and he was sitting at the very end and seemed a bit shy, I playfully said to come get comfortable with me and we can snuggle!...His face turned red for a sec and he smiled then we ended up cuddling together! The night ended up real fun and we stayed up until 4 before he fell asleep on me which was way too cute. I wasn't really implying anything other than a fun night,Almost from the beginning I felt something hard poking at me, but again I had NO intentions on taking it further. I'm not exactly sure if I have a "crush" on him,but indeed sexy, an extremely gorgeous body and just amazing overall. I just don't see him as a 16 year old, I don't intend on finding another guy while I'm here for a relationship, I'd rather spend time with Jamie and get to know him better because his age doesn't really mean anything to me at this point. To put it simple, when we both are free not working, we are doing stuff together-it just turned out that way.(its almost like HE IS my boyfriend) He's got a real awesome personality as well.On Sunday night he was a bit down and sad, sometimes when he thinks about his parents and how he grew up so fast,I knew, but he didn't say anything..So before we went to bed I grabbed him and gave him a real tight long hug and kissed him on the cheek and said goodnight.(I knew he needed it and I wanted to give it to him). I do know he's a virgin, we've talked about our views on that subject, he hasn't met a girl at school he's liked enough or his age. I've had sex with THREE guys in my life, but a part of me is wanting to get intimate with him eventually,possibly explore a bit beforehand, not now but eventually..It hasn't been that long yet, but after about a month or so I want to ask him about it, how do I bring this subject up with him? How do I bring up this conversation and ask how he feels about me, and when would be the best time? I know it seems crazy,I'm 30, but you would never think he was 16. I just really want to know how to bring this up. Thank you so much.Age in Canada is 16. Nothing that is illegal.If you really don't have anything informative to say other than criticizing me over him being 16, please just don't bother. It is illegal in the US I know that, but in Canada its NOT. moreResolved Question: I'm sexually attracted to a 16 year old but the problem is when I'm almost twice his age?

That night I had my big blanket out with me on the couch and he was sitting at the very end and seemed a bit shy, I playfully said to come get comfortable with me and we can snuggle!...His face turned red for a sec but we ended up cuddled up together! The night ended up real fun and we stayed up until 4 before he fell asleep on me which was way too cute. I wasn't really implying anything other than a fun night,Almost from the beginning I felt something hard poking at me, but again I had NO intentions on taking it further. I'm not exactly sure if I have a "crush" on him,but indeed sexy, an extremely gorgeous body and just amazing overall. I just don't see him as a 16 year old, I don't intend on finding another guy while I'm here for a relationship, I'd rather spend time with Jamie and get to know him better because his age doesn't really mean anything to me at this point. To put it simple, when we both are free not working, we are doing stuff together-it just turned out that way. He's got a real awesome personality as well.On Sunday night he was a bit down and sad, sometimes when he thinks about his parents and how he grew up so fast,I knew, but he didn't say anything..So before we went to bed I grabbed him and gave him a real tight long hug and kissed him on the cheek and said goodnight.(I knew he needed it and I wanted to give it to him). I do know he's a virgin, we've talked about our views on that subject, he hasn't met a girl at school he's liked enough or his age. I've had sex with THREE guys in my life, but a part of me is wanting to get intimate with him eventually,possibly explore a bit beforehand, not now but eventually..It hasn't been that long yet, but after about a month or so I want to ask him about it, how do I bring this subject up with him without making it awkward?How do I bring up this conversation and ask how he feels? I know it seems crazy,I'm 30, but you would never think he was 16. Thank you so much.the law in Canada is 16.My question is soley on the purpose of how I bring it up with him, and how I can talk to him about it. I'll understand and respect his wishes, but I do know there is attraction he is showing towards me but I want to make sure he's ready and don't want to feel guilty about doing it with him. moreResolved Question: As crazy as it sounds, I want to get closer with a 16 year old but I'm 30?
PLEASE don't just read my headline and insult me without even having a clue of what I'm talking about.. Due to work related reason I had to move to Canada,BC 2and a half weeks ago and will be living there for 6-8 months. I don't know anyone here so I just went onto the craigslist to look for a roommate who had a spare room. I was so lucky and found an ad in a perfect area, Male Seeking roommate in a nice and clean 2 bedroom apartment on 5th floor. I arranged everything and phoned him and then met him the next day, The apartment was beautiful ,there was alot of nice furniture and fairly affordable (550 each) and the guy was real cute and real nice too!and fairly affordable. So I thought this would be perfect and we made an agreement. I think it was the 29th of August I actually moved in. Jamie (my roommate) was living there for the last 3 months and his other roommate had to leave, and couldn't afford a 2 bedroom by himself. We got along from the start real well, Before I moved from the US I wasn't expecting anything at all. He showed me around Vancouver, its actually quite pretty here. I thought he was at least 24 or 25, until we were talking about work and then said he starts school in September and I asked what courses, and then laughed and said I'm in High school;WHICH is when I discovered he was 16. I was actually VERY impressed and couldn't believe he was only 16, but the reason he lives independently is because his father was an alcoholic who he lived with, and his mother was a religious fanatic who turned into a drug addict. He goes to school until 3, goes to the gym everyday, and then straight to his work at a warehouse until 11pm making $13 an hour and comes back home exhausted, pays his own rent and food,and then works again full time on Saturday from Noon and part time on Sunday so I have so much respect for him, and I really do think he's amazing. He resents his parents and does not talk to them, they do not support him in anyway either. I still don't know anyone around here, but he's the one person that I'd love to get to know better and hang out with while I'm living here, he's really interesting and kind but he doesn't have anyone, no brothers, he's all alone basically.

Thank you so much.I know it all sounds crazy, but the way things are going I would really enjoy doing this with him. He would be my fourth, I haven't been in any sort of relationship within the last 2 years.And no, The LEGAL age in Canada is 16. So I am not breaking any law if anything will happen.I do not know exactly, what it will lead to. Perhaps things can be taken further in the future but I can't say anything 100% at this point. I am sure we are both interested in eachother, On saturday we both went to the PNE which will be going on for 1 more week, and he asked if I wanted to hold his hand. He seems to really enjoy my company as well as I enjoy his. moreResolved Question: Wanting to sort of get closer with my new roommate, but he's 16 years old?

Move out or wait?
My husband recently got made redundant and now money is very short for him. We live with my in-laws but wanted to move out before this however because of his job we've stalled this. We're both getting increasingly frustrated because we're living with the whole family, we pay £400 p/m rent each..he has stopped as he doesn't have a job whilst I continue to pay as I work. Things just keeping getting worse, his siblings don't really care and are selfish, I really try my best to help in the chores -as I am a daughter-in-law its expected. They can get away with it and they do try...which upsets me..I vent out at my husband and it makes him unhappy. His sisters have different mentality to us. My husband is a very independent person and all the stuff that happens at home upsets us- Constant gossping, have to do things the way in-laws want, have to eat what they want, if we eat what we want, constantly told 'its bad for you', 'why dont u eat proper food' etc. My mother-in-law is constantly giving us advice and tells us what she think we should do..always! its really getting to me as I'm not a child and nor is he. I dont say anything as I live under her house and as such feel powerless. I have never invited my friends around as husband's family constantly talk about ppl and I would be very upset if they said anything about my friends or family. I dont feel free as everything is rules and regulations! As such, on my salary alone, I am thinking of getting a shared ownership apartment part-buy part-rent and get on the property ladder. that way its affordable and we move out and have our own space. Do you think this is too much of a risk for us at the moment? or shall we go for it? Also, when they say shared ownership, can you eventually pay the different and pay up for the whole thing? OR..shall we stay put, wait for husband to get a job and save bit more money and then get a property with 100% ownership? moreVoting Question: Should I live below my standards for 4 years to save for a house?
Can anyone help me - unsure what to do. At the moment I live in a brand new city centre apartment, close to everything I need. I work from home so can move anywhere. I am wanting to save up a deposit to buy a house. I have 2 options, either stay where I am (paying £550 a month for an apartment) and save around a £10,000 deposit - or my second choice is to move 18 miles away to a small market town in the countryside and rent a 2 bedroomed victorian house in the market place surrounded by shops. It is only £350 a month, which will allow me to save an extra £10,000 on top of the £10,000 I was planning on saving, but would mean moving away from all the luxuries and convieniences I have living in a city centre. The property is small, 2 rooms down and 2 rooms (box rooms) upstairs, and a tiny kitchen with the bathroom off the kitchen. It is clean, but an old victorian property overlooking the main street (door onto pavement) and rear back onto churchyard. moreResolved Question: Apartment for rent (joke)?
A businessman met a beautiful girl and agreed to spend the night with her for $500. They did their thing, and, before he left, he told her that he did not have any cash with him, but he would have his secretary write a cheque and mail it to her, calling the payment 'RENT FOR APARTMENT.' On the way to the office, he regretted what he had done, realising that the whole event had not been worth the price. So he had his secretary send a cheque for $250 and enclose the following typed note: 'Dear Madam: Enclosed find a cheque for $250 for rent of your apartment. I am not sending the amount agreed upon, because when I rented the place, I was under the impression that: #1 - it had never been occupied; #2 - there was plenty of heat; and #3 - it was small enough to make me feel cozy and at home. However, I found out that: #1 - it had been previously occupied, #2 - there wasn't any heat, and #3 - it was entirely too large.' Upon receipt of the note, the girl immediately returned the check for $250 with the following note: 'Dear Sir: #1 - I cannot understand how you could expect a beautiful apartment to remain unoccupied indefinitely. #2 - As for the heat, there is plenty of it, if you know how to turn it on. #3 - Regarding the space, the apartment is indeed of regular size, but if you don't have enough furniture to fill it, please do not blame the management.

You take the train home and you know exactly where on the platform the doors will open that will leave you right in front of the exit stairway. You know what a "regular" coffee is It's not Manhattan, it's the "City".

The rurals scare you, but.. You're willing to take in strange people as roommates simply to help pay the rent. There is no North and South. It's uptown or downtown. If you're really from New York you have absolutely no concept of where North and South are. You cross the street anywhere but on the corners yelling at the cars for not respecting the fact. You move 8,000 miles away, spend 10 years learning the local language and people still know you're from Brooklyn the minute you open your mouth. You return after 10 years and the first foods you want are a "real" pizza and "real" bagel. A 500 square foot apartment is large. Your co-worker commutes 45 minutes by train to a 2,000 square foot house in the suburbs that was the same price as that same 500 square foot apartment of yours that takes only 35 minutes to get to and you think he's a sucker. You know the differences between all the different Ray's Pizzas. You are not under the mistaken impression that any human being would be able to actually understand a P.A. announcement on the subway. You know who Dr. Z is. You have at least 50 menus in your apartment, two thirds of which you have neither ordered from nor even heard of. You wouldn't bother ordering an pizza in any other city. You know that the off the shelf insecticides are just laughing gas to the superior roaches cohabitating with you in the 500 square foot apartment. You get ready to order dinner every night and must choose from the 4 major food groups: Chinese, Italian, Mexican or Indian. You're not in the least bit interested in going to Times Square on New Year's Eve. Your internal is permanently set to know when Alternate Side of the Street parking regulations are in effect. You know what a bodega is. You know how to fold the New York Times in half, vertically, so that you can read it on the subway or bus without knocking off other passenger's hats. Someone bumps into you, and you check for your wallet. You don't even notice the nice lady walking down the road having a perfectly normal conversation with her self. You pay "only" $230 a month to park your car. You cringe at hearing people pronounce Houston St. like the city in Texas The presidential visit is a major traffic jam.not an honor. Film crews on your block annoy you, not excite you. (They take up all the parking spaces!) You can nap on the subway and never miss your stop.

Hi, 1. Is it true that if you're buying a new car for cash that you get a rebate (cash back). I'm asking because I'm trying to decide between buying a $3000 used car and saving to buy a new one in one year or buying a new one with $5000 cash back ('08 suzuki xl 7: paying $23000 instead of $28000) and pay it off in 12 months. 2. what is the best way to get a reliable cheap used car of about $2500 to $3000 that will not need repairs for 3 years. 3. Also, can one buy/finance a home with only two years of credit history, 6 months of employment history with salary of $7000/month, a credit score of 750? Summary: 'Should I rent an apartment and buy a $2500 used car now and get a new home and car in 3 years or should I just go ahead and get the new car now and home because (a) if I rent an apartment, after two to three years, I would have payed over $20000 in rent (that would have gone into paying for the home) (b) if I buy a $2500 car now, after two to three years, the trade in value will be close to zero, I might as well get a new one now and pay it off in 12 month. I need suggestions. THANK YOU. moreMore Apartment Homes For Rent Results
