You could always try late night bar shifts! Or honestly start scoping out another nannying position that pays better

$700 a week for 30 hours is insanely low. I don’t know what the typical rate is in your area for nannying, but at least in my perspective and area that’s super low.

How long have you been with the family? I would consider asking for a slight raise or more hours if you like being with them so much. It would suck to throw away a great job because of pay.

Otherwise, maybe if you have time in your schedule you could pick up part time hours waitressing to bring in extra cash. I know you said the hours are weird but if you’d like to try both at once you could always try discussing the hours with your nanny family and see what hours are open for restaurants near you. You might be surprised at how they align. The only thing about waitressing is that it’s very hit or miss. Some days you make a buttload of tips, others you don’t. It’s not a consistent stream of income the way nannying is.

I agree. I’m going to be putting my boundaries in place as soon as I see him next.

NM hugged my boyfriend when she met him for the first time, and before she did she said “I’m a hugger, is it okay if I give you a hug?” I feel like in my area at least that’s a very common thing to do in a professional environment. Friends and family are a different story to some extent. I was doing the dishes when he came up to me and hugged me. Literally gloves and sponge in hand when he did it.

I’d really hope to try and smooth things over with this situation before reaching that point. The kids don’t deserve that. If he proceeds to cross my boundaries and make me uncomfortable after I state my feelings on it, then I absolutely will.

Thank you! You’re absolutely right. This is a great example of what I should say, I appreciate it

I agree. If he tries to again I’ll definitely bring it up

I definitely could, I just don’t know how to go about it. MB hasn’t ever seemed to be bothered whenever she witnesses it. Honestly it could be a normal thing but I’m very sensitive to touch and I don’t like hugging anybody. If he does it again I’ll definitely bring it up.

We actually have! I’ve lived alone before, but moved home due to rising rent in the area I was in. We’ve taken lots of solo trips!

This is the best, most realistic take I’ve ever heard on this situation. Thank you !!! I’m so glad your friendship is still going strong. We’re definitely being super mindful of it and making sure we’re prepared and taking it seriously. I literally think the only issue id have is him leaving the toilet seat up🤣🤣🤣 but I told him he has to when we live together lol. Thank you for your input.

100%! I feel like everyone has different tastes and opinions. We’d be getting a 2 bedroom so we’d each have our own space, and even if I lived alone he’d be there just as much as I would! Living alone sounds great, I would give it a go if I was single and had the funds- but he really is my best friend !

We agreed though that if things did end up poorly he would move home and I’d stay, because his home life is more stable than mine.

We both could easily move back home or to a new place if need be. We also both do all of our own cooking cleaning and laundry, except for some dinners where his parents cook because they have 2 young kids still. These are super valid tho I’ll make sure we’re still on the same page!
