…and that’s when I discovered the amazing world of meth!
“So I was on social media, shit posting, upvoting stuff without reading the article, and complaining about brands of smartphones that I didn…”
Oh fuck.
For a whole lot of homeless people the answer is nothing. Nothing happened. They just slowly slid into homelessness as they were slowly priced out of society.
About a month ago I was at the gas station filling up my 24 year old clunker when a homeless guy came up and asked if I would give him enough money for a coffee. I was going to lie and say I didn’t have cash on me, but it occurred to me that I’m one bad day from being in his shoes every moment, so I checked the emergency stash I kept in my car and on impulse just gave him the whole pile of it. Idk how much it was, not a ton, but a handful of ones and maybe a $5 or a $10. And yeah, a week ago, that bad day happened. My husband dumped me via text message, and now I’m very, very close to homelessness in the next few weeks or months if I can’t find a place to go soon. It’s not always drugs, or addiction, or laziness. Sometimes it’s making what look like good decisions and just getting fucked over.
I’m sorry. Nobody deserves this. I hope you can get some help with rent.
Tfw 10 dollars might not be much over there but it can buy two meals where I live :')
That fucking sucks man. I can’t even imagine leaving my partner like that. One time we had a short spat, and we STILL made sure she was atleast okay. I hope you find a way to be okay. This is also coming from someone currently living in a motel.
You sound like a good person. I hope you get out of the motel and into stable housing soon!
Thank you; you do too.
