Today, I spent my remaining cash on a doctor's visit, only to find out that at the age of 22, I'm getting major health problems brought on by stress. I came home to relax, only to find out my roommate can't pay his rent, and needs me to cover for him so we don't get evicted. FML

Today, I came home to found all of my belongings out on the street. My roommate, who is also my brother, apparantly neglected to pay his part of the rent, and we got evicted. FML

Today, my roommate wants to kick me out because I can't afford to pay my share of the rent this month. I couldn't afford to, because I had to pay for repairs to my car after my roommate got drunk, stole my keys, and crashed it into a street light. FML

Should I Stay or Should I Go?

By Anonymous - 17/07/2022 01:00 - United Kingdom

Today, after my housemate handed in his notice to vacate without telling me beforehand, I had few days whilst working to make a decision to stay or vacate. In a panic, I chose vacate. On my day off I sat down with my finances and discovered I can't afford elsewhere. I asked to stay, my landlord put up rent by 50%. I might now become homeless. FML

Today, I found out my roomie has lost her only source of income. This means I'm responsible for all the bills and the rent. I would kick her out and get someone else, but she's my mother. FML

Today, I finally got my paycheck that I could enjoy $300 for myself after taking care of my bills with so many other ones. Then, I find out that the water was shut off, which is supposed to be my roommate's responsibility. Apparently, he has not paid it in months, and they want $288. FML

Here comes the flood

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2016 but it's good stuff - United States - Gurnee

Today, my tiny apartment flooded. My family lives out of state and the few friends I have all gave me B.S. excuses for why I can't stay over for a few nights. I'm so broke this month that I'll probably have to hit up my psycho ex. FML

Today, all of my roommates handed in their vacating notice unexpectedly. They are all moving to a new house together in two weeks, leaving me to be either homeless or forced to pay 4 times what I was paying in rent. FML

Maxed out

By Rojo - 14/08/2018 03:30

Today, I was notified that my work is cutting my pay almost in half. I just renewed my long-term lease on an expensive apartment because I was able to afford it before this morning. Now I have no idea how I’m going to pay for it. FML

OP, it sounds like you need to find a way to relax! Maybe see a therapist (if you can afford it) so they can help you come up with ideas that will let you unwind and chill out. I also have problems with stressing myself out, so I know how that is!

I find it sad, Boners, that you know this and you're not Canadian. What makes it worse is that the "Canadian" above you doesn't know ANYTHING about their own country...

how do they not know ANYTHING??? because they made one misconception about taxes? asshole.

Thursday 24 February 2011 5:45

Let's see. We'll start with the common misconception (that shouldn't be a misconception for people who actually live in the country) that we have free health care. We do not, obviously. Boners hit the nail on the head when he said it came from our taxes. It's all from our own pockets. Not that I think it's a bad idea or anything, but it could be improved. I'm not involved nor do I care about politics in any way, shape or form yet I know this simple fact. ...Do I really need to go on? I feel like I'm wasting my time replying to you... FYI I'm also a Canadian, so it's not like I'm dissing other countries. I'm going to go now before I fall asleep at the computer.

um... yes thanks, I was aware I pay taxes, and what those taxes are used for, but you Americans also pay taxes and still have to fork out even more money just to see your doctor. Canada is the way to go, just normally most Americans that I've talked to won't admit it. It's cool, more land for me.

44 - I didn't say Canada is a "bad" country to live in due to the taxes and such, and I realize America is much worse in terms of health care and the like. Did you read the part where I said "not that I think it's a bad thing or anything..."? Yeah, I didn't think so. I'm sure there are a few better countries than Canada to live in, which was my entire point that you obviously didn't get. Canada is not THE BEST country to live in, but it's certainly not the worst. All I said in my second post was that they could stand for a little improvement. Any country can. Okay? Okay. Glad we got that settled.
