Okay, so I'm a single 23 yr old male and I've run into a big big problem. I live in a house with two other roommates that are BAILING ON ME and sticking me with tons of bills. I do not have friends and family that can help and I'm at a loss for what to do! I clear maybe 1200/mo and $1600 before taxes. I have terrible credit, a full time job, and TOO MANY BILLS NOW! The house I live in costs 1200/mo. to rent and that's what I earn from work! Please don't send any b.s. comments to this! This is serious and I'm digging anywhere I can for ideas! Extended stays cost 260/300 a week and I can't afford that! Is my only real hope just to SHOOT my self and give up? ****!

put out an ad in the paper, or at the local grocery store/Laundry mat that you are seeking room mates, just an idea

There are local newsraggs that advertise for roomates, find some new ones. There's always some college peeps looking for a place to lay. Good luck!

Dude, I did the hustlin game, I don't have the clientelle anymore. It'd be more of a waste of time than just getting a second job.. grrr

Get some more room mates QUICK!!! Don't shoot yourself... Good luck! I was bailed out on 6 months ago and left with several bills. You do get through it! If you don't have a lease- maybe you could move some where cheaper??? Look into all the options you can.
