We’ve just been told we have three months to find somewhere else to live.

Well, the current rental market in NI is, predictably, bollocks for renters. This is going to be a fucking ordeal. I'm going to go and start boxing up my books for something to do that isn't sitting here and crying.
Just to make it clear: we're not in danger of becoming unhoused. My parents can take us in if needs be. It is extremely non-ideal, because my parents live in a very small house, but we will always have a roof over our heads and I know that is a significant privilege.
I'm just upset because we've lived here for seven years; I did, in fact, think of it as my home; and now when I look around, all I can see is something that was never mine and has now been snatched away from me.
Landlords are parasites.

Stupid of me to ever think of a rental place as my home, really.
@astronomerritt Uggg! Pros and cons to renting I guess, but this is a definite con.

@astronomerritt I'm so sorry, it's so stressful! I hope you find something quickly and with minimal fuss
@michcampbell thank you! I hope so too.

@c_dan4th Yeah. Mostly cons, honestly, but when it's all you can afford...

I am so sorry, I can not imagine what you must be going through right now.

@astronomerritt
This is really tough and unfair. Sending strength and patience.

@astronomerritt uuugh y'all I am so sorry. Moves are so much stress even when wanted.
-
@cazmockett Oh my goodness, that sounds like an ordeal! I hope we can both find peaceful resolutions soon.

@astronomerritt so sorry to hear this and it's understandable to feel that way.
Hope you find somewhere else amazing, even if it may be different and an unwanted change.
