Miscellaneous: Today, I moved in with my brother to save on a swanky apartment....

Today, I moved in with my brother to save on a swanky apartment. I was skeptical as to how this would work out as we fought a lot as kids. Our first big fight? Whether or not to keep his dorm-style futon complete with Return of the Jedi sheets. He's a 35-yr old physician; I'm a 28-yr old lawyer. FML

Today, despite the fact that I live with my parents and pay rent, my mom decided the best spot for my brother, his wife and one-year-old son was my bedroom. So I'm sleeping on the couch, because it would, "take too long to clean her room." FML

Today, my brother and I moved out of an apartment into a new one. We both have ADD. Whatever you now imagine what that went like, yes, it exactly went like that. FML

A few good men?

Today, I was visiting my in-laws and sharing a room with my husband's 17-year-old sister. Later that night she and her brother of 24 years started fist-fighting over an air mattress and I had to pull them off each other. The brother later berated me with, "You can't handle any pressure!" FML

With friends like these…

Today, after I moved in with my best friend a year ago, living with her and her boyfriend for over 3 months, I couldn’t handle them fighting so I moved out 9 months later. She cheated on her boyfriend with a coworker and is now moving in with me, so, "We can live like wild teenagers." We’re both 30 and I’m not single. FML

Today, I moved into my new college apartment for the next year. A 45 year old guy with a mustache in short shorts and no shirt answers the door. He will be one of my roommates. FML

Great help

Today, I just moved in with my friend and had my brother help with the move. Later that night both my brother and my friend wouldn't let me sleep because of how loud the sex was. FML

Family tension

By Anonymous - 21/11/2022 14:00

Today, it’s been a year since my brother-in-law started sleeping on our sofa. At first I had sympathy, but he hasn’t even been looking for a job, so when I found him wearing my robe, drinking my sherry, in my armchair, I evicted his ass. Now I’m the one sleeping on the sofa because my wife is mad at me. FML

Today, I found out the person that I’ve been casually seeing has decided he wants to live with me. I found this out when I asked him to go home after two weeks sleeping over, and he told me he'd already moved out of his mom’s. I sublet a single bedroom and have barely enough room for myself. FML

if the op moved in with his brother, even if he came later, he still has a say in the decor cuz he prolly pays for half the cost. and chics dig nerds any way so what does it matter?

1. In what country do you live? 2. At that age,they're probably just out of LAW SCHOOL and MEDICAL SCHOOL and paying back student loans. A cheap medical school sets you back about 40,000 X 4=160,000 just for tuition. Before you add living expenses and junk,that's pretty expensive. At 35 depending on his specialty,he may not be done yet which means he's not making that much money and STILL paying student loans. Same for Miss Counselor: law school isn't cheap 3. Even if they are "balling" or whatever, they live in New York and I'll assume the city because she said swanky. A loft in NYC can set you back about 2K depending on the part of the city. Imagine how much a full apartment costs them. 4. With the above taken into consideration, wouldn't it make more sense to save money and move in together?!!

Oh and NOT EVERYONE has to get married. Just because they're 28 and 35 doesn't mean they run off and get married. Question you should think about: Are they financially viable/able to take care of a family at this point? Maybe you're one of those idiots who get married and have babies because Uncle Sam will help out financially
