We just moved 600 miles to a new city. House buying failed. Living in a travel trailer. I have a decent job in a high-cost-of-living location. I love him to pieces, but he is blaming me for our rental houses back where we were living not selling. Even if I had spent my entire summer break for the past ten years rehabbing houses, I wouldn’t have been able to make them immediately sellable.
He and I have been shopping for a bigger RV. RV “resorts” have better amenities than most communities we find ourselves able to buy into anyway. More space means more room for us to not be up in each other’s business. We just got back from looking at some and were looking at another website for used ones and he basically told me to buy my own and just park it there.
He says I am the only one happy living together. I make it so his work life suffers, he can’t sleep, and his daughter hates dealing with me and my son. I don’t know how I am possibly impacting his job. I a m not one of those people who are calling and texting all day to get his attention. Sometimes he emails with me from work but it is very much mutual. And I’ve essentially stopped initiating all email or phone calls with him.
I thought we had a future and now he says I don’t talk to him about anything serious or pull my own weight.
I’m shocked/ I am in a city where I know literally no one else but him and my teenaged son who moved with me. I don’t make enough or have the credit ti qualify for a mortgage that will actually BUY anything. Seriously, even condos are priced about what I can qualify for a mortgage for.
I can cash out my retirement accounts and pay cash for a trailer to park somewhere. I won’t be mobile until I figure out how to buy a big enough truck to haul it, but there are services that move them for you.
I’m almost 42, I just started teaching at my first new employer in 15 years, my son is miserable, the love of my life and probably my very last chance to not just be alone forever just announced that I am the source of all misery and I’m in the most expensive suburb of Houston with no idea how to navigate my way into living by myself.
