I am pissed off. So sorry. This is just a rant really I'm not expecting anyone to reply.
I live in a terrace house with my DD - I'm aware I am lucky to live in a nice big house - it has uneven, unsafe patio tiles covering the entire garden. I've been out there once on the day I moved in and never since.
I have found lots of nice terraces with a bit of grass out the back and keep putting applications in. Eventhough my income next year is around £24k and I won't be receiving housing benefit I keep getting refused.
I am upset, and so pissed off. I have a guarantor and a good reference from my current landlord. I am continually being refused purely because I'm a single mum.
All I want is a bit of garden for my DD ffs. Gggrrr. Society is so fucking unfair on single mums, why do we get knocked back at every turn? Her dad can live wherever the fuck he wants, be me?!
The estate agent just said to me on the phone she thinks i won't find a landlord who will accept me tbh. I'm 23. I have 3 a's at a level. A degree. I'm going to be a maths teacher. Yes I have a DD but I'm an active useful member of society.
Arrrgghhhhhhhh.
