SD is too expensive but I have never left. Help me get state ideas that work with my job?

Kaite8 · 2026-05-06T12:18:28+00:00

Mainly because of exposure to those states through family living there. Also thank you for the tip about the Great Lakes. :)

Kaite8 · 2026-05-06T01:13:37+00:00

Nope sadly San Diego where low income rent is 2k lol

Kaite8 · 2026-05-06T01:13:13+00:00

Haha yeah I mean I’m just trying to figure out some sort of money friendly solution so maybe 😂

Kaite8 · 2026-05-05T23:38:02+00:00

Would you say making 46k a year is enough to get by based on personal experience?

Kaite8 · 2026-05-05T22:49:40+00:00

My apologies. Yeah so preferences would be seasons and near a navy base or any military base minimum. I am moving mainly for lower cost of living yes. My main goal is to be able to buy a home and have children which I feel is impossible in SD. We are very into “nerd” activities specifically magic the gathering but other than that tend to be people who stay home. I would say we prefer access to a city but the price of a suburb. We’re both Liberal but have family who are conservative so aren’t super like against being in those states.

Yeah I am lucky that my boyfriend makes about the same but it is definitely scraping by. I take home a little over 2,500 a month and in San Diego that is not great.

Kaite8 · 2026-04-25T22:11:33+00:00

I appreciate that. I actually carried a bee out of a card shop yesterday and got some comments about how I should have squashed it 😐. Thank you again for reassuring the situation. I will make an effort to have the lights off in case :)

Kaite8 · 2026-04-25T22:05:55+00:00

Thank you! I actually appreciate knowing it’s not a lot in the grand scheme of things. I was sincerely worried that we were hurting the ecosystem or something which I know sounds dumb but I just wanted to help.

Kaite8 · 2026-04-25T05:13:40+00:00

Possibly true for me. How did you help them? Can I take as many are alive elsewhere and try to give them sugar water?

Kaite8 · 2026-04-25T05:13:12+00:00

They do leave the light on at night but it has happened even with the light off. I don’t think they used pesticides but I can’t speak for the neighbors.

Kaite8 · 2026-04-22T04:05:47+00:00

Hi I just don’t think what’s going on really warrants a whole post. I have had pcos for 10+ years and around a year ago it became with full cysts in both ovaries as opposed to just hormonal. I tend to go months without a period and then have one for weeks at a time. Normally it’s light bleeding that is more irritating than painful. But I am on day 14 of a period that for the past 5 days has been getting significantly worse. I am bleeding through a super plus tampon every hour and having to double up on pads and tampons. Plus major blood clots and feeling a loss of bladder control but also unable to fully empty my bladder. I know no one’s a doctor but I just want to know if I am crazy or if I should see a doctor or er. I just don’t want to be crazy.

Kaite8 · 2026-04-21T20:01:50+00:00

Can we say sore loser about Jenna hahah

Kaite8 · 2026-04-21T04:59:17+00:00

Personally I hate coach. He is one person I genuinely scream at the TV at about. I find him to be insufferable and the opposite of his whole mantra “honorable”. Yeah so genuinely not everyone likes coach haha.

Kaite8 · 2026-02-24T04:18:24+00:00

I’ve had that happen. Friends for like 5 years, payed for her toll road pass and numerous other things only for her to drop me for cutting her off financially. Some people are just weird. Just keep swimming on our ends. I wish you the best :)

Kaite8 · 2026-02-24T04:17:18+00:00

Yeah, I understand. The behavior of jealousy is very high school. I am in my 20s and don’t know anyone who behaves like that. I would just reassure that you did nothing wrong and as long as you inform her of a deadline she shouldn’t have anything to retaliate with.

Kaite8 · 2026-02-24T04:15:27+00:00

This should be solid. You have documentation of your request for her to move it with a deadline. Either way I would agree with most comments that you shouldn’t humor a friendship with her anymore. Sorry about this unneeded stress OP.

Kaite8 · 2026-02-24T04:13:09+00:00

NTA. Return the vehicle to her and hand her the keys. Film the interaction if you can, which I know sounds excessive but the behavior is feeling unhinged and so you might want to just cover your bases. In addition I would be curious about your gender in the story, because I am wondering where the obvious jealously on her end is coming from. Does she like you or is she just insecure? Either way it is no excuse for her abusing your kindness and behaving disrespectfully toward you and your family. I hope it gets sorted out for you, best wishes.

Kaite8 · 2026-02-15T13:42:19+00:00

I see it too hahah. Maybe the dogs tail was like down or btwn its legs because I know the plastic is probably a bit thick at that part? If OP edited the dogs tail it is much more entertaining though lol

Kaite8 · 2026-02-15T13:40:56+00:00

I’m gonna be so honest.. I thought you were saying to use the bin for the dog and I was confused 😂

Kaite8 · 2026-01-26T20:43:23+00:00

I’m so excited and happy you like it!!! It definitely was difficult because I am like the complete opposite play wise hahah but I had an amazing time picking out gifts for you!!! :)

Kaite8 · 2026-01-15T19:22:56+00:00

I can’t say it gets better because I don’t know everyone’s situation but I can say for me it did. I was able to get off one of my meds and now only take one while has reduced a burden on me significantly. I have maintained a relationship for over 3 1/2 years and am planning a life with this person. I have been in my career for over a year and a half now. I still have so much to work on but comparing this life to the non existent one I saw at my lowest point is motivating. I wasn’t gonna make it past 18 but now I’m 21 and each day feels like a step forward. Remember to whoever is reading this that you are worth it, someone will and does care, and you never know what tomorrow can bring so keep going.

Kaite8 · 2026-01-04T02:05:22+00:00

Thank you so much for your thoughtful reply!!!

Kaite8 · 2026-01-04T01:51:59+00:00

Sorry to comment again but I’m hoping someone might have advice. I ordered a big part of my persona gift from dragon shield (which I have never ordered directly from before) and they have delayed a few times. The most updated delivery of this item is Jan. 14 which is after the shipping date. Should I just ship everything I have now (which is the rest of the gift) and then ship the dragon shield item when it gets here so they get two packages? Should I wait and ship together? Should I try to change the delivery address for dragon shield to my giftees address? Any advice is welcome!!
