Teh Suckz Thread

[OkamiKodomo]

My sucks... is a potentially major, potentially very costly repair to my car. I'll have to go to an actual mechanic and talk to them but apparently my drive line has a torn boot.... And the belts in my engine are cracked and frayed, and my shocks are leaking. I already knew that I did some major damage to the shocks a few weeks ago because of my own thrice-damned idiocy. And I don't think the power train warranty will cover any of it. I'll have to go to the dealership and see what they'll do and what they won't.

What do you do when you don't have a job (despite trying to find one), your money is gone, and the person you've been in a relationship with for over 10 years suddenly tells you it's over?

That's not a rhetorical question. I really need to know and I've been around this community long enough to know that there are so many different people here who have been through so many different things that maybe someone will have some advice for me. I hope so anyway. I've already talked to my mom, but understand she is in tight financial straights as well right now so she can only do so much.

Any advice is welcome, even just glomps. I really don't know what to do...

[Kirahfaye]

I've been in pretty much the same situation, Neko Sandy with some differences. All I can say is to hang in there and don't lose hope or perspective.

I see we're in the same boat. No job, despite my teaching degree in special education; no money; I'm filing for bankrupcy this week; and now....probably a divorce from my husband of ten years. I'm sorry...for both of us. For me..I'm looking for a new state to start over. Maybe even sleep in the car for awhile...soon to be homeless too.

Thanks Kirahfaye and KitKat. He has said I can stay her as long as I need to, but it's going to be hard to do that I think. I don't want to rush into anything, but at the same time I am having a very hard time not doing anything.

The last thing I want to do is make a mistake because I'm so upset.

I really hope things work out for you KitKat and you don't have to spend time homeless. That on top of everything else is just almost impossible to imagine. *hugs*

I wish I had a choice in the matter, but I don't have family...my one friend lives in the UK and that's it. What I need to do is move up north. Somewhere where education is actually valued. No teacher with three different cerfication fields should be unemployed.

[Neko Sandy]

Yes, I completely agree. There is no way a teacher with those credentials should be out of work. Especially since one of them is special education.

I really rather wish I had finished my English/Teaching double major now instead of dropping the teaching part because I started to feel it just wasn't what I wanted to do. I might have work now if I hadn't.

Is Australia still actively recruiting teachers? There was a point where they would pay your way over and give you automatic citizenship if you wanted it.

[Lamia of the Dark]

Neko Sandy, I am so sorry to hear that.

I don't have any advice for you, but you have all of my ::hugs::

[Neko Sandy]

Thank you, Lamia. Some of the shock is starting to pass but that means I'm starting to realize just how big of a task is before me and by the looks of it, he's not planning on helping out any more than he absolutely has to. I'm even going to have to decide what to do with our cats by myself.

They are like our kids; they always have been. He should at least be helping with that.
