So, basically, my roomate contacted my landlord and we both have to be out by December 1st. We had a fight, blah, blah, blah, but at least she had the decency to try and see if I could find somewhere to go first. :mad:

She's got somewhere to stay after she's out. I don't. I can't keep going back to my parents. Homeless shelters are booked solid for weeks, rental and housing assistance programs have run out of money, and I'm not a priority, considering I have no kids. I'm trying to find a job in time to maybe get some money for a new apartment. But, I have no credit and if I can't get the money, I'm fucked.

I was wondering if anyone had any other ideas? I really need to figure something out soon. A month isn't that long. So, please, someone's gotta know something. The job market over here sucks, I've been looking for about a month now with no results.

Anyway, any advise is welcome...
 
Eh? So, you're both getting kicked out? Or just you? Over a fight that you had with each other? Or the landlord?
 
The agreement between us when I first moved in was we'd talk out any issues. Yesterday, I asked if she was coming home at all (she likes to sleep at her boyfriend's). She sent me this fucked up text about how I've been "bitchy" and shit like that. I guess this has been going on for like a month now. This is news to me, considering I can't read minds and she never acted out of the ordinary. So, she wanted to talk after that. I told her I was leaving, to cool off. When I was gone she called and left me a message telling me that I have a month to move out. She is moving too. But she has family and her boyfriend to stay with. I really didn't get a say in any of this.
The thing I don't get is the lease is in her mom's name, but she signed the vacancy paper. Her mom lives in Maine.

Anyway, I need to find somewhere to stay until I can get ahold of a job, or somehow get some money and try to get an apartment with no credit.
 
Cute girl needs money and has older, hairy "guy friend." I know this one...

"Brian and Aleaf make a porno...."

oh wait, wrong movie.
 
Yeah, that's fucked up. I don't think that's really grounds for kicking someone out, but I don't know that there's much you can do if the lease is in her mom's name.

As for your situation, damn, I really don't have any good advice. Are your parents totally out of the question? If they said that you can't come back anymore then that's one thing, but if it's just a "I'd really rather not" type of thing, well, you might have to just suck it up and do it for a while. It's better then homelessness for sure...
 
What's your car situation at the moment? And as far as a new place, is there a college town near by? Places there will be low rent, no credit needed, and as long as you don't trash it there OK will rent being late here and there.

Oh my god ahaha.

Anyway, it's an "out of the question" thing. My family, living with my mom, they're fucked up. Example: My roommate went to my mom's house last night to hang out and talk. My mom always makes time to talk with her and her boyfriend.
I called my mom crying because I was trying to find somewhere to live and found out everything was booked. I asked if she could come over after work and talk to me. She said she was really busy cuz she had to clean the house. There ya go.

My grandma lives in the area, but I've lived there twice and they won't take me back.
 
My car situation is fine, well for now. I have a payment coming up of $75 and my insurance which is late is $110. My grandparents will take my car away the moment I don't pay those.

And yes, I live in Boise, Idaho with BSU a few miles away. I just need to figure out how to get rent money and a deposit, which are quite costly.
 
you need to get a job as a secretary or admin at a school or office that will pay for education. you keep going in cirlces. if you don't change something, something bad will happen. look at the other brian. when was the last time we heard from him?
 
Actually, I'm signing up for classes at a nearby community college. I applied for any and all jobs I qualify for at BSU for the discounted education. I typically don't catch my self going in the same circles, but I have really bad luck.

The vicious cycle I have the most trouble with is financial stability. But other than that, I try everyday to change something, because I obviously don't like the way things are going right now.

And who the hell is the other Brian??
 
Look around in apartment complexs. Some ppl get into a place that they can only afford to live in if there is another person there, then for what ever what ever reason, other person flakes out, they need some one to fill in for the rest of the lease. There you go. No papers. No credit needed. No move in deposits. Just rent. I know of two ppl off hand that have done that with no problems. Just hafta live with a stranger until you get to know them.
 
That's exactly what I did this time around. Epic fail.

I've considered looking for roommates and keeping the current apartment under my name, if that possible. But I'm unemployed for the moment and jobs are real scarce right now. So, that's not promising.

So wait, you're getting kicked out by your roommate, and you called your mom in tears and she blew you off, but she makes time to hang out out with and talk to said roommate?!?

Damn...that is fucked up... :huh:
