we've been here 3 damn years and im sick of it, he still wants to wait another 2 years. We are both in college and we have a 2 yr old. I wanna move out ASAP but theres no convencing him. We can afford a small condo, it is cheap, everytime i find something cheap, he makes up an excuse its too cheap, ok well i find a better one, its too expensive we cant afford it, and we are talking about $80,000 in tx. Well i find something near, he makes an excuse, well the point is that anything i find he makes an excuse for it. I dont know what to do, i wanna cry and scream. I hate it that my sister in law come here and free load off everything we buy. My mother in law doesnt think we help even though we pay bills. Im 23 and my husband 24. Im ashamed of still living at home

i think you are being too hard on your husband. men naturally feel responsible for taking care of their familys financially. keep a smile on your face and start stashing away money so you will be ready to move in two years when you are out of school. make sure your husband understands you will make the most of it but in two years you are moving. you sil is probably jealous because she thinks your mil takes care of everything for you. try to ignor them and get through the next two years. being students you and your husband will have a hard time getting a good loan. cool your jets.

never a time to be making plans little ones. i might tell your husband how she makes you sense, merely as you have performed right here. tell him you're so unhappy and dissatisfied you're questioning approximately leaving; tell him you adore him yet do no longer desire to stay in this way. Agree approximately getting your man or woman telephone plan - you are able to desire to be sure a non-dependency sort of association together with her. Your husband must be putting you as quantity one and if he's not putting you first then you certainly've severe courting problems. He has to nicely known this or your marriage seems doomed i'm afraid. See in case you will get some courting counselling occurring; there are some no longer for income enterprises that could desire to be prepared to assist without costing you a leg. sturdy success - i'm hoping that issues will artwork out besides the fact that if plainly like a annoying highway forward.

I'd start by having heart to heart with your husband and talking to your mother in law, it may be she's very ready for you to move out and can help convince your husband of this. Especially with a young child, she could be ready for you to go while your husband isn't, especially if his mother often takes care of your daughter. Also it may be about location, he may not want to move far from home or school. With school a lot of colleges offer family housing, which is very cheap but nice.
If that still doesn't work, offer a compromise, move out in a year, that way he has time to come to grips with the fact he's moving.
Either way good luck!

He loves you and he loves Mom, so he does not see a problem. But he's wrong, you need to put your foot down and demand you move out. If he insists on staying, arrange to get 3/4 of the money and find a place for yourself. You are entitled to 1/2 and then money for the baby.
He has not matured yet, that will probably take another 3 to 4 years.

take your child and move out. being in college and having a kid is hard enough, you dont need the rest of the pressure. if you have money or a joint account take half and move to somewhere convenient for YOU. Life is too short to do something for somebody else, so do it for yourself. Im sure he will tag along after awhile, and if not..well you got your answer. A family always needs their own space, not to mention space as a couple. Your marriage won't last anyways if you stay where you are, so why not just go and do it?

If you and your husband can afford a condo, then I would think you alone could afford a small apartment. Take your daughter and move out. Tell your husband that you are ready to grow up and move out, even if he's not. If you can't afford to do that, move in with YOUR mom until he sees reason.
Work out a long-term, reasonable budget to show that the two of you really can afford it. Enlist your mother-in-law's help - ask her to tell him to move out.

You know that sometime you have to make the first move in order for him to understand that you want him and you to stand on your own two feet and stop living on are with someone else-you need your own space and privacy-and so do your child-maybe you will have to move out first in order for him to see the light and if he love you he will understand and move with you and his son-sometime one of you have to make the move and three yrs is long enough to be living with someone else-time to make your move-be strong and everything will work it self out for the best. remember that GOD help those that help themselves

Sorry, but despite your ages, you & your husband sure haven't learnt to grow up.
You both should have been on your own & financially set before you married, & before having brought a child into this chaos.
