Ok so you secured a studio apartment and you have conquered moving out. That’s good progress.

Next the plan is to set up your studio apartment so it’s cozy and functional. Must have a spot where you can sit and work on your finance’s all by with a plan on how you are going to generate income towards getting yourself in an overall better position in life.

You have your job at the firm where you are appreciated and enjoy contributing using your skills.

You have your music abilities as well and I think you could plan a path for generating more income in that area and you no longer have to worry about any jealous unhealthy input.

Given your desire to romanticize, it can help if you look at this as a beginning of designing your own private garden where you plant your own fruits of labor for “self”.

Can you get more gigs to bring in more money? Idk what is around you but can you play acoustical guitar and work wednesdays and fridays at a local pub? Just an idea, you may have something better in mind.

It’s not a bad thing to have an efficiency. It can give you a place to flop while you hyperfocus on having your day job and more at night. You are actually more fortunate than you realize because you have good looks and are fit and you CAN be productive.

It’s high time you invest in yourself and really be independent.
