Every time my friends complain they have three houses and no wives (lmao???), my brain always jumps to Homer Simpson saying, "Why can't I have three wives and no houses?"

Anyway finding a place to stay for my partner in Wellington is absolutely destroying me. The rent in that city is INSANE. There's no way she can stay there long term, and I think she's started to wonder if this job is even worth it.

in reply to @ninecoffees's post:

One of the only useful pieces of practical advice I got in my academic "looking for a job" training was to look at the pay relative to cost of living. That's absolutely a decision your partner should make with that in mind, and while I'm certainly not going to say "oh they should do X," it's, well, I've made my series of decisions and that was an influence, we'll say.

100% empathise with you. I managed to get a room in a place by sheer coincidence and luck but it was a gruelling experience and I'm paying a decent chunk more rent. Sending good energy towards you and your partner and on the off chance if I hear about anything I'll let you know
