Anyone else living in a flatshare or lodging from strangers?
I am renting a room off a family in their house and its a total nightmare, that eats up 1/3rd of my disposable income.
I want to talk aobut it, but I also wanna hear other peoples experiences of this bullshit.
Living alone is worth every cent. I would sooner fucking starve than move in with people

currently i'm living in a really shitty situation.
>live in a town where it would cost 2/3rds of my disposable income to rent a place to myself
>only in this town for work
>renting a room off a family
>discover the room is really badly sound-insulated
>they all wake up at 6 in the morning and the one child begins playing the cello at 6:30 in the morning
>they have dogs, one of which annoyingly barks at lot but is peaceful, the other one actively tries to attack me (its a big dog too) and i have to wait for them to get rid of before i can pass - there has been times i've been trapped in my room for hours because this hound has tried to attack me and no one was in
>have to go up 2 flights of stairs and through the kitchen to get to the toilet
>kids constantly watching tv which i always hear
>kitchen and dining room is the same room, they get home before me, so i wait for them to finish eating before i cook - this has sometimes meant i just starve because they don't leave the dining table for the evenign
>constant human interraction
>for some reason the mother is really passive aggressive towards me, even though i try to be as light-touch and presence-less as possible.
i would have moved out but i'm changing jobs soon, so i've been on the cusp of leaving for the last 5 months. if i went somewhere else the landlord would cuck me over with notice periods and all that.
hate it so much. its depressing enough to be a wagey, but to be someone who feels threatened by an animal, hungry because they can't cook and deprived of sleep and rest because of noise is even more depressing.
Why would you move in with a family? Seems like you never thought that through

it was cheaper than the private rooms
the room was nicer.
the house was cleaner/nicer than what i saw
the terms are far more flexible (ie give us the rent and don't damage anything and come and go as you please as opposed to '2 month notice period, this fee, that fee, replacement fee'
>guaranteed to avoid hardcore normies or any weirdos
seemed good, but then i soon realised that almost all of the negative possibilities of a flatshare realise themselves in a family home - noise, human activity, having to think about other people whilst they don't even have a spare thoughrt for you.

your post were merely a segue into opening about my problems. it meant nothing to me. you're just a balloon with which i've kept my thread afloat.

This is why I dont move out.
Living with my family is bad enough. I could never live with people like the ones you are living with.What sort of job is worth that hell?
