After being recently forced out of base housing due to the recent influx of active duty in the area, I have nowhere to go. I understand and appreciate that housing priority will go to service members with dependents who otherwise may not have been able to bring them after PCSing. I am on active duty and have been splitting a unit with another active duty member from my squadron. He PCSed and the housing office no longer allows single AD members to room together. AD with dependents now takes priority. What should I do?

If you receive BAH and will continue to receive it after you're out I suggest looking at houses or rooms for rent in your area they tend to be cheaper than apartments.

Hi! I would have to agree with the comment above. I feel like your best option right now is to find a cheap room for rent.

Have you tried making a request? I mean, there's no guarantee. But who knows, right? Give it a try.

My friend has the same concern. He doesn't have any dependents so he is planning to leave and rent his own space. No allowance or cash assistance whatsoever.

Married to a crazy rich girlfriend and it's the worst experience of my life. She can afford anything, flying first class everywhere, wears all branded stuff and she doesnt have to work for life. I am working very hard to provide for family and I am still not able to add any value to her life and she's been distancing herself. We havent had any meaningful interaction in the past 1 year too, been sleeping separately, no touch/kiss/sex or anything like that. We might be divorcing soon...

I think living a frugal life and aiming to retire early makes a lot of sense.

Recently, some of my family members are diagnosed with a rare diseases. When you look at the statistics, these are so many of these ‘rare’ conditions and cumulatively they are not rare.

These family members conditions made me reevaluate how I want to spend my life. I am 35 this year and I can’t decide if I should take great vacations with my kids or keep living a frugal life. Do you have the same dilemma?

During the pandemic I dove into my self care (found a therapist, learned I was having seizures and got on meds for that). My journey has been difficult and not pretty to watch.

I don’t feel sexy or attractive anymore. I talked to him about this and he feels bad. But I feel guilty for bringing it up. Anyone else had this issue?

Many with kids live on the same street as their ex wives so they can be close to their child. I'm not comfortable dating guys like that.
