It's a tough spot to be. Me and my ex actually broke up halfway through a lease. It ended as poorly as you imagine. If you don't mind having room mates again dm me in a few months and I can hook you up with a cheap 9/1 lease when I sign somewhere new you can have my current spot

or not live in Boston. I lived in Boston and wanted to pay less rent, so moved further out. Further out, less rent.

Yep. If Haverhill had the rents I was willing to pay, I'd live in Haverhill. Or Framingham or wherever. I'd do that instead of whining about high rents on Reddit. Then I'd do something to improve my earnings if that was something that was important to me.

Hooray! Commenting with practical solutions instead of whining. Good day.
