Owning a house. Five months in a row now I have had a major expense in repairing something in this house. It has left me broke and I ****ing hate it. I am stuck here. I can't really sell it because it needs so much in repair that I wouldn't get anything out of it. I let someone talk me into this. I didn't want it, but they kept talking "but it's an investment". By the time it would pay me off I am going to b e 80 years old. I am alone and I don't need an upstairs which costs a fortune in heating bills, even when it's "blocked off". My friends are doing things, going places, enjoying themselves, While I am stuck here always having to fix something. It just feels pointless, a never ending spiral. I only use about 30% of this place, the rest is just filled with stuff, stuff I don't need or want anymore. If there was someone else with me, it would be manageable, but I was so much happier just paying rent and not worrying about **** CONSTANTLY.
