Not the best, desu. I was an idiot and listened to my friend who takes me into moving to a new state to live with him because he guaranteed me a job with his company, as they really needed people, but told me they didn't want to hire me until I got there because they didn't want to pay relocation costs. Turns out, I was never getting the job, and he lied to me to "help" me get out of my home town, which I love despite the lack of economic opportunity, but he hates. He went back on every other promise he made to get me out here. I spent a few months applying for jobs all day, and after 3 months finally got one, but not before I lost literally everything. I have no friends here save for the people I now work with.
I'm rebuilding my life, slowly, $10/hr at a time. I am isolated, broke, trying to get enough together to get another car, get my license back (I need insurance or it gets suspended because I got a ticket for lapsed insurance when I lost my job almost 3 years ago), and my own place, where I have a bed and don't live in a basement on a couch. I'm 28 and drowning in debt, I have nothing to show for it, I feel like an abject failure. I applied to over 200 jobs between June and September, heard back from maybe 10, only hired by one, and they were apprehensive because I'm way overqualified. I'm tired of being broke and of my life falling apart and being pulled back together just in time for the rug to be pulled out from under me again before I can rebuild my credit or find something that pays decently.
I'm afraid I'll never have a family at this rate, that I'll be caught in this cycle forever, always drowning in debt and lonely. I just want to go home, to my own home, in my own car, and lay down in my own bed and snuggle up with someone I'm in love with.
If that's not in the cards, boogaloo it is.
