Thanks bebe. One of the reasons I didn't want to go through trying to find another roomie other than covid was strangers are a hard pass vs possible consideration back when I was like 20. And a lot of my friends are either in relationships or are going different paths. So this was something that I knew was going to be inevitable over time.
And as long as rent doesn't go up, I should be able to cover his share of rent okay. I've already got money put aside that I started since Mega (using his gamertag nickname for reference) and I had first started talking about this last year. I already pay the utilities because they were cheap enough here and now that the car is being paid off I'll have 1 less debt to take up space and can put into rent and other debt tabs. So why not?
I've also had a lot of people reach out to let me know if I need anything, just say so. Buuuuuut I'm shitty at reaching out so we'll see how that works. I promise to take picks of before stuff and after I redecorate and reorganize stuff or give a tour of the place at the next Zoom meeting.
