What Can You Say About Staying at Your Relatives House?

My situation is that I have a disability, so I really can' find a good paying job. I still need a roof over my head, and because of my problems, I need to stay in the ity, where everything is convenient. For this reason, I receive a disaility allowance from the goverment, and I do what I can to make a little extra money, since the governmet benefit is not that much.

Were I in your position, I would live wih relatives until I find a job that pays the appropriate amoun of money or me to find a nice home for my own family.

I have been ollowing your posts on here about your situation, and as the North American slang expression goes "you have a good head on your shoulders" meaning, you'e thought this out well.

Hi Muelitz,

If I am in your situation, I will still stay with them..I will just assist in food shopping so that I will feel more convenient! In my case, when everything is free, I am not comfortable sometimes, just a culture I guess..I do know with you!

Anyway, try also to save every payday and look for another job..Don't force yourself to move when you are not ready, it is very hard and you might end up going back to them..

So, just relax and take your time in searching for a good paying job as well as budget also is necessary!

Muelitz, Well it sounds to me as though your Uncles house is plenty big enough for you to stay in. and if he does not mind you living with him, If I were you, I would stay there until you can buy the house you want. I would not rent some other place. Pay him a little to stay there,when you can.You have no job, stay put, where you are.

Hi Muelitz,

I think you should stay with your uncle and your cousin in their big house and talk to them about your position,surley they will let you stay there after all your a family, I would do the same and when I find a good job i will rent somewhere elseGood luck.

Hi Muelitz guess I would live with my relatives and pay them rent as it would be cheaper than renting...littleowl

Hi my friend,

We had our 25 year old son living with us since he was 16 up until about a month ago so that is about the same as living with relatives, right? He had a job but still didn't have enough money move into an apartment. He finally figured out a way to manage his money and move in with a friend of his.

I don't think you should try to rent somewhere else without a permanent job. What happens if you lose the job and where will you be then?

If your uncle has no problem with you living with him and his son for awhile, I don't see why you don't just stay there until you get a permanent job. If he won't take money for rent, maybe you can help around the house or with his son.

Happy MyLotting,

We had my father in law living with us for over a year when we first got married due to some hardships he encountered. I was more than willing to lend a hand because I knew he'd do the same for us. It could get stressful at time, but he was very helpful in buying groceries, cooking dinner, and helping keep the apartment clean. On the other hand, I also lived with my mother in law for a year while my husband was 3 hours away at college and I was finishing a degree in my hometown. That was difficult at times, but again...I get along very well with my in laws and it wasn't really an issue. I hope the best for you!

I lived with my relatives for over a year before when I relocated to a different country. At first they were very nice and welcoming, but soon I became the extra member of the family and it wasn't that nice anymore. I had to pay rent, help in the house hold chores, and take care of the kids. There were rules to follow and pretenses to be made everyday. i really don't recommend living with your relatives unless you're really really close. I don't mind staying with my favorite cousins for a while, but I would definitely prefer living by myself!

I would do exactly what you are doing while working hard to find permanant work. In the mean time I would show my gratefulness and try not to be a burden so that my stay didn't wear on them. Hopefully this will all work out for you soon. I guess the other thing you could do is to find a roommate to share an apartment with.

I think that's a good idea to live with your relatives as long as you can, Muelitz, and as long as you aren't taking advantage of them. You are quite fortunate that they let you stay with them. I wish you the best of luck.
