Another day of no joy in finding xp somewhere to move to.

My thoughts that his family would find him somewhere quickly if he said he'd look up there were wrong, all they have done is given him names of letting agents which A) don't accept dss and b) he can't afford.

I don't want to be here doing this anymore it's driving me nuts.

what happened to that flat he was all set to move into ?

nutcracker · 03/03/2006 12:50

It fell through as I discovered it wasn't safe for the kids to stay in (windows literally falling out).

Have scoured papers and internet again today and there is nothing. Well no thats not true actually, there are bedsits but he won't ring them.

Oh no. This must be so hard for you.

nutcracker · 03/03/2006 12:51

I just cannot stand it, there is nothing I can do to make the situation better, I am stuck like this until a miracle happens which is looking less and less likely.

It's been nearly a month since I finnished it and I am no further forward infact I feel like i've gone backwards.

Oh nutty...Sad

NomDePlume · 03/03/2006 12:52

nutty Sad, sorry that other one wasn't to be. Do you think that exP is being extra picky with the flats as a way of staying in your house for longer ? Deliberately delaying it in the hope that you'll change your mind and have him back ?

nutcracker · 03/03/2006 12:53

I don't know anymore NDP, don't trust my own judgement at the mo tbh.

Could you ring them?

NomDePlume · 03/03/2006 12:55

any chance of you getting a night out with friends or something ? A chance to escape for a few hours ? Really feel for you, you took such a big step in finishing the relationship and it must feel like the odds are stacked against you.

nutcracker · 03/03/2006 12:56

I can yeah but I can't make him go look at them or anything.

He just doesn't get how hard I am finding this. In his eyes he's the victim and the one who's upset, depressed and what have you.

I just want to get on with my life and I can't.

No chance NDP, I am still getting no money from tax credits or Income support.

He is bumping and banging around upstairs now, probably tidying up or something.

It is just pissing me off so much. I don't want him here tidying up and messing about.

He has done sod all today about finding somewhere.

They will Tortoise but the thing is they will knw he will be on benefit because he isn't working.

TBH I don't care anymore about where he goes, who pays or anything, I just don't want him here.

tortoise · 03/03/2006 13:40

ok.This must be really hard for you.Maybe you should just tell him to go again and not worry about where he will live.Not your problem and you have to put you first.I got an order from court to get my xp out.He had to leave then!

Bugsy2 · 03/03/2006 13:45

I'm so sorry its all gone pearshaped Nutcracker. Can't think of anything helpful to suggest but I hope you can get him out soon.

nutcracker · 03/03/2006 14:09

OP posts:
Bugsy2 · 03/03/2006 14:16
