I want to apologise to everyone here about having to put up and read about my side of things.

I know there are probably many others in tough positions and I’ve probably had too much a winge and complain today.

I should probably just focus on solving the problem and taking it in stride or waiting to solve the problem instead of being so down about all the worst aspects of it all and what it might mean.

Apologies to everyone for the doomposting.

No need to apologise at all. In fact it's better out than in.

It’s ok to post about your situation, you’re already ahead as you’ve realised that you need to take steps to fix it. It’d be worse if you didn’t do anything at all and just complaining. A step in the right direction. You got this

No stress. It’s part of the dynamic here. The people that frequent this DT understand that.

Don't stress about the doom posting. We all need this space to vent also and people can understand we all have bad days and most of us are struggling with the rising costs of living.

That you've supported your partner whether it's left you in a precarious position or not is something to be really proud of. No matter how tough things get, they know you'll be there for them and that sounds like a good relationship.

You don't have to apologise for doom posting, the community is here to offer support and venting is always welcome! I read your previous comment and it sounds like you're in a tough spot! I hope you can find some form of a solution.

Venting is part of solving the problem. It helps to get it out.

You've got nothing to apologise for imo.
