Have you looked at any hotels/extended stay places?

Sorry op. You’re doing good. You could always get a gym membership and use their showers if you need. Hope the best

Try extended family

Ive done it before you need a gym membership preferably one that's open 24/7 and has multiple locations everywhere that and a public library card a power bank too a big ass one. And a good ass sleeping bag. Honestly I would be doing that s*** right now if it wasnt for covid. You couldnt move like this for a while idk how it is now. You treat the library as headquarters as long as it's open you can hangout in there they have ac. You can charge your electronic devices and power bank there they have electrical outlets but always keep your eye on your s*** you'll quickly realize your not the only homeless one who uses the library. Some people are homeless and look normal af they have jobs and everything others are straight bums but they know the library is hq you should be using it to read (gain knowledge) or apply at jobs on the computer. They also have restrooms for you to use you can also use them for daily hygiene like brushing your teeth in the mornings. Once the library closes take your ass to the gym work out or not hang out in your car whatever this is where you will shower and if you need to s*** at night this is where you'll do it too. I chose to do this In a coastal city if I had to do it again I would definitely take my ass to a coastal city again.

FINAL UPDATE: We just moved in this morning!!!! After 2 months living in the car and out of motels/hotels we finally got the keys to the apartment. Living in cleveland on a main road in walking distance of hella s***! we’re hype and very relieved to finally lay on the floor of the apartment.

Stopped by my parents to grab some things i wanted to keep, grabbed the ps5 and the switch as well and i’m finally on my way to the apartment! (soft flex i know)

dropped some of our bags off and dropped on the floor and laid on the floor for a bit appreciate all the love and support from ktt and hopefully this is relieving to some or some inspiration for those in tough situations WE UPP NOW AND WE LIT! TIME TO DECORATE THE APARTMENT AND F*** MY BEAUTIFUL GIRLFRIEND ON THIS FLOOR FOR NOW

Day 5 update: this what the trunk looking like. Stayed at a hotel last night to sleep in a bed and rest up and get some better hygiene. Almost had a mental breakdown after my gf and I got turned down from some racist ass people at this restaurant

Update #2 (6/4) We got approved for our dream apartment! The down side is move in date isn’t until another month or so. Still making decent money and not stressing too much about our situation. Keeping up with school work is hard at times but I should be okay. Appreciate the support from everyone

Update #3: Day 28 (6/25)

It’s my birthday! my gf got hella stuff for me and we’re going on a picnic still trying to enjoy ourselves. I cut my hand open the other day and had to get 3 stitches. My mental health is okay but our situation has really been taking a toll on my gf. She’s been having a lot of stress and anxiety and it’s been hard for her lately. it sucks we can’t shower/use the bathroom/brush our teeth whenever we feel like it and i miss being in a house. i miss sleeping in bed a lot and we did get hotels for like 3 or 4 nights so far. we’re 3 weeks away from moving in but not trying to count down the days. we’ll get furniture prob the week of moving in or something but money been really tight lately. eating out 24/7 has been nasty and really expensive and i’m tired of it. it’s hard being motivated in the gym or in school but i’m still trying. time flying by but not fast enough, trying to enjoy the moment though. appreciate you guys and i love y’all! gonna go try to enjoy my birthday:-)

Original post:I don’t know what to do anymore

I been living with my abusive parents my whole life and lately my girl been staying over here and she’s been getting a glimpse of my mom and dad and how they can be

They finally did too much and disrespected my girl and I’d rather be living in my car than in my parents house for another day. They physically/mentally/emotionally abused me forever and I been holding this s*** in for too long.

We both have a couple thousand saved up and we both work but it’s so hard finding an apartment we like that has any openings asap

I guess I’m just scared and don’t know how long we’re gonna be staying in our cars but I know I need to get out of that abusive house and I love my girlfriend too much to let us stay there another day longer

Can y’all stop giving this man advice on how to be homeless and instead motivate him to use his $ on a secure shelter lmao

We both work and are looking at apartments and applying but until the approval comes through and the other tenants leave we just sleeping in our cars for now

Have you looked into ‘slummier’ options just as a temporary measure until tenants leave the places you’re applying and waiting for??

I just want you and yours safe with a roof over your head that’s all
