Easy Room Mate

mida asked:


Since me n husband got married 2 years ago, we’ve been staying at my brother-in-law’s 2 rooms flat. Now he is getting married next month and wanted to move in to the flat. I’m not sure he is chasing us away by doing that. We can’t say no becos the flat belong to him though we did pay the rent to him every month. I don’t want to share the flat with other ppl. But me n husband has no where to move to. We have not enough money to rent other place. What else can i do besides sharing? My husband says nth as he has no prob with it. By the way, our own house is going to be complete end of the year. Should i just endure with them n stay together till our house completed rather than wasting some more money to rent other places.

I am a divorced mother of a 5 yo girl, sharing a one family house with my sister, her four boys and her husband. Many times I feel like my daughter gets excluded from games and activities because she is the only girl. I try to provide all I can for her but since I am the breadwinner, I don’t get to spend a lot of time at home. My sister and her husband are usually with the kids when they come back from school and oversee them, but I feel they have a lot in their hands to worry about my daughter’s feelings. How can I help my daughter deal with the rejection the older boys show when she wants to be included in their games? These boys are my nephews and I love them, I wish they could be nicer to my daughter but I don’t want to create a bigger conflict.
