I've been living with my boyfriend for the past eight months, but we broke up last week and I will be moving in another month or so. I've never lived completely on my own (mostly why I stayed with him so long, I think). I'm very nervous about making ends meet. I that, with God's help, I can make it on my own, and I know I will be better off NOT living with someone I'm not married to. I need all the prayers I can get though, to help me through this. We've been busy dividing up all our stuff, and deciding where our animals are going to go. He's keeping one of the cats (she was his before I moved in, anyways) and he's keeping our hamster. I'm going to miss Jerome but I've seen how much my ex loves him, and I don't want to take him away. I've got our other cat, our bird, our betta tank, and our frog tank. He's giving me the other computer, and I've got some furniture that I'm taking with me. The area that I will probably be living in isn't in one of the best areas of town, and I am concerned about that, but I know i won't go anywhere if God doesn't want me there. I wish I had listened to Him sooner and gotten out of this relationship, but at least I'm leaving now. Please keep me in your prayers.
