In laws are on their way as I write this. Yippee. They got a new car ( again) this one has 700 dollars a month payment attached to it. They now have 5 vehicles three cars, a truck and a van. Should I mention we only have two licensed drivers in the house?
Whatever, they are maybe a half hour away now and I dont want to be around them so I’m in my side of the house. I took care of their animals and house my partner was here so I had her help.
Can you and your partner afford to move? It seems like your in laws are mean to you
And exploiting her for her check.
I think we can but she isn’t so sure. I told her that for my birthday I want her to fix her van, pay her other fine, get insurance on the van and of course for her to get her license. That is a tall order but if I have to return my phone for any of that to happen I will.
@cbbrown you deserve better.
I don’t agree with needing a better partner I just want her to try harder. She gets like her dad and birth mother complacent and doesn’t think things need to be done unless it’s urgent
No I wasn’t talking about your partner @cbbrown.
You both deserve a better life away from there.
Oh sorry I got confused. My mistake. My partner works hard and we got some money saved not much since she insisted I treat myself and get a new phone.
I don’t know what to do half the time when I get yelled at or talked down to. So I just cry, punch or pick at my skin. Whoa been awhile since I’ve admitted that’s
Hang in there and never give up.
Don’t harm yourself and talk to your case manager when needed.
You have been through a lot in your life and make sure others don’t take advantage of you.
You are a fighter and survivor.
I messaged her Thursday about my doctor appointment to see bone doctor but no answer. I see her the 20th for an appointment with my pdoc.
I don’t really have anyone to talk to in person this weekend because my partner is working 32 hours just Saturday and Sunday. A bunch of Certified nursing assistants walked out or switched to different shifts so she’s picking up the slack
man, i really hope it works out for you both, is there no way you guys could find somewhere together, you could do everything from there,
I guess its just paying the bills though 
I’m so sorry, @cbbrown. I know you are miserable with your in-laws. You shouldn’t have to live like that. It’s abuse, plain and simple.
They just want so much from us. My family is the same way. Just wants money and people to do their daily chores and take care of them.
@Happy_H my partner isn’t treated much better. They hardly ever do anything for their pets besides letting the bigger two out and in. They feed their fish. My partner’s time with me is always drastically cut because of her parents.
You can get a studio apartment for cheap. I had one when I was pregnant with my daughter. It’s basically 1 room with a kitchen, closet and small bathroom. Your bedroom and living room are one in the same.
20 years ago it was $250/month. They have room for pet 
A studio is a great idea. My sister and brother-in-law had one in the early days of their marriage. Or even renting a garage apartment from someone; those are often low-cost and may include utilities.
Yeah, my mum is a little needy but I try to help her out, I will be doing more for her when I get this car, just helping her with shopping and things she is deaf/blind but it could have been a lot worse, I basically need to guide her around and make sure she is safe, she has a dog too lol
