I can't do this anymore

[Casey_03]

I give up. I'm ready to move back to Eastern Europe. As many of you know, i'm being evicted with my baby and have been apartment hunting. Viewed my dream place on Friday and was told to await a call from the owner today about my application. The landlord of another apartment (a very crappy one with dangerous stairs) was waiting on me today to give him an answer. I told him today would be the latest I'd be able to give him a move-in date. Figured if the dream place fell through, at least I'd have something, so I wouldn't be homeless for my son's first birthday.

Well, now the real estate agent for the first place (the dream place) says the owner hasn't reviewed my application yet and won't have time to until tomorrow. So I have to either take a massive gamble and tell the other guy I don't want the place with the dangerous stairs, or reject him and hope like hell the dream place comes through.

Something tells me the dream place will most definitely not come through. Because, really, does anything good happen to me these days?

Am sitting here sobbing uncontrollably. Can't deal with this anymore.

@Casey_03 STOP!!!! Just take a freaking deep breath and try to calm down. YES! You can do this. We both can!!!, You still have to be given a written notice to vacate, it's a 30 day notice. That gives you an additional 30 days, then you still don't have to move.

Wait till tomorrow to give the shitlord (crappy place) an answer. Then call the dream place again tomorrow. Just try and calm down as it just upsets the baby......

I'm trying to hang in there. I feel so uncomfortable in my grandma's house now. Knowing that all my relatives are so hostile towards me. My uncle came by earlier and just gave me the silent treatment and a dirty look. Seems my aunt has been spreading lies among family members.

Sad but true, even the best of people can get really ugly when it comes to inheritance. Try not to take it personally. Huge drama with my brother in law and his brother when the dad died. Tried to get my BIL convicted thinking all would go to him if his brother was a felon. This on a small island, small town police and judiciary. ALL BULL SHIT. Brother claimed my BIL threatened him and his family. That was all it took. My BIL for years lived off island and did not drink and never with the local cops. Father left estate a mess with the business being shared between the two. Quarter million on legal fees. Family can get real ugly.

You live there until it is sold, or find a place before then. Feels ugly, do not take it personally, it is likely not, just ugly very common behavior during an estate situation.

Personally NO BROKEN STAIRS. Still in PT for injury from that at a rental, then given notice to move. You have someone else to put first, your child. Brave this out.

Hi, seriously I've been here, I'm still there. I could not find a home either, and worse yet, I am poor. I have gone through much moving around and relationship problems, even filed a lawsuit against a previous landlord. I am now with family again and still in need of work. I too have a baby. I almost moved out of state for cheaper rent. I'm Christian, so I know to pray before I make a decision and when I feel safe and at peace, I know I am where I am supposed to be. I pray God helps you go where you need to go, for you and your baby! God bless you.

@Casey_03 Are things any better today????

 

[Casey_03]

Not really @She Cat I'm still waiting to hear back about the dream place, but it's pretty early, so they may still call by the end of the day. I've been having panic attacks all morning (which I rarely if ever get) but am trying to channel that energy into doing something productive and packing up my stuff.

 

[Deleted member 541]

My panic hasn't hit as of yet, but anxiety and now depression is starting to settle in. I've been throwing stuff away and getting rid of stuff. Not a good sign with me.......

 

[Casey_03]

Well I hope you're not throwing out any good stuff! Maybe just sort stuff and put it in boxes, save it until later to throw out. So you know you're not being impulsive. Have you spoken to any of the other tenants about the new owner? Or had any contact with the new owner yet? It is possible he'd want to keep you as a tenant, especially since you're a good one. Although I guess the best thing to do would be to prepare for the worst, but hope for the best ...

 

[Casey_03]

Haven't heard from the dream place yet and it's nearly 5 p.m. Guess they went with someone else. Slightly crushed, to be honest.

 

[Heather]

Why don't you call them?

 

[Casey_03]

I did. No answer. Ad for the place is still up.
