You seem perfectly understandable to me.

You must be an imposter! :-x

6 pm there will be strangers in my current (rented) apartment. My landlord is showing the place to people who are interested in renting it.

What if they ask me if I have been satisfied with living here..... Eh... :P

Are you moving Froya?

Yes. I have bought a small apartment :)

The final move date is Friday 24 March.

Do you own your home, or do you rent?

Ok. There is much work with owning a house. Is that why you have chosen to rent instead?

I can feel the responsability with owning an apartment very well. I like to feel free, and owning as little stuff as possible, so bying an apartment is a big step in the other direction.

At the same time it's so frustrating to pay a landlord. I also had saved up a lot of money, so I had to put them to use somehow.

I'm trying to work out if this is a good or a bad omen.

Good for gardeners as they keep rodent pests at bay, protecting your plants.

There were a number of combined factors that were involved. It wasn't down to a singular reason.
I share with three others and we are all very quiet, so works out quit well and its a big house. Spend most of my time in my room. :)

I finally have a group of housemates that generally gets the rent in to account on time :) So a little less stress.
Well, done for saving up :) and bet your really happy having a place you really can call yours :)

Yes, if I can relax and let go of the fears of everything that can go wrong :P

Do you get any socialization with your house mates? Do you feel less lonely..?

I don't think I could have lived like that. I will probably get into conflicts with my upcomming neighbours :lol:

You sound pleased with it though :)

I got to say. Even tough it is a bit more inconvenient now to reach some of my bookcases, I am glad I placed my piano somewhere else.

Its bitter sweet :) We are not a social crew actually i would say we are all neurodiverse in our own individual way, so rarely any visitors and as i live on the upper floor i dont hear the door nor answer it, If i do hear it i know its pretty much not for me..

I did like my own place to a point. I was going through a rough long patch and totally closed myself off, including curtains, Totally froze if i heard someone at the door... I get social exposure now but its minimal...

My neighbours are cool, have a 90 year old fella next door, really nice chap and help him out now and again and barely hear anything from the others...
I have a nice view from the deck as pith this pic of the moonrise:

and one of our local sunsets:

So having a few good housemates with that view i think i can cope with the trade off :)

Wow... That is a beautiful view! :heart:

Sounds like you are at a much healthier place socially now. You can't isolate when you live with people like that. Your brave for breaking out of that vicious cycle..

I also tend to isolate. I don't want to get "close" with my closest neighbours. I'm too unstable. One day I might be in a good mood and feel chatty, then the next I don't want to see anyone.
