Hope the roommate situation can be tolerated long enough for you to get through your freelance assignment. Then you will have some money available to figure out something that will work better.

There is no sense living in a situation that doesn't work, but my marriage isn't working, & unfortunately, I have to tolerate the living conditions until I am financially prepared to do something about it. Unfortunately money seems to dictate the moves at times since one ends up suffering either way.

Hope you can work this out for your benefit. You shouldn't be the one that looses.
