Today, my aunt, whom I live with, told me she is going to move out and demanded her half of the rent back, as she only spent two days a week there. When I told her that's not how rent works, she called my mom to tell her what a failure she had raised. Her own sons are unemployed drug addicts. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I finally got all of my finances to move out of my house. My mother, instead of being happy for me for moving out of her house, blames me because she needs my rent money, states I will not be happy out in the world and disowned me because I didn't move out when she wanted me to. She wanted me to stay until she was 55. FML
Today, my crazy drug-addict mother kicked me out of the house after siding with my crazy, drug-addict aunt, who'd just threatened to slit my throat. FML
Today, I found out that the $200 I reluctantly gave to my mother so she could rent a house was paid to a scammer. Now she wants to live with me, in my one bedroom apartment. FML
Today, after months of helping my mother with bills because she claimed she had no money, I found out she makes way more than what I do. She just wanted my money for alcohol and drugs. FML
Today, my pill-popping mom, committing disability fraud and stealing from me, called the cops on me, and dragged the landlord into it, is now getting both of us evicted. All this because she'd rather live homeless with her drug problem than to get the help she needs, which I can't provide anymore after 10 years. FML
Today, I moved back home because I got laid off and could no longer afford my apartment. I decided to take a nap and when I woke up I overheard my Mom telling my Aunt that she used to be so proud of me and wonders when I became such a loser. Burn. FML
Today, after hitting hard times and needing a place to stay, I'd asked my sister for help to which she sent me a paragraph-long response about how it would break their lease if they had people live there, leading me to sleep on a friend's couch, I found out our tweaker mom started staying at my sisters and didn't leave for 6 months. FML
Today, my parents are calling me a spoilt brat and threatening to disown me if I don't let my sister, her six kids, and freshly out of jail boyfriend move into the house I spent 10 years working my ass off to buy without having a mortgage. Sis said I can sleep on the lounge as long as I pay rent. FML
Today, I caught my mom using my toothbrush and washcloth again, despite her having both her own bathroom and supplies. I asked her to please not use mine, to which she called me an ungrateful bitch. My dad agreed. Yet they wonder why I've been desperately saving money to move out. FML
Today, I found out my roomie has lost her only source of income. This means I'm responsible for all the bills and the rent. I would kick her out and get someone else, but she's my mother. FML

Hopefully your mother knows that her sister is the actual failure.

All I can say is consider the source and keep your head up. Also, doing financial transactions with family is usually a BAAAAD idea....

Was the person renting a room as a hotel room or an apartment?

well its implied they share the apartment, not exactly sure what you mean by hotel room since you dont just go to someones house and say "can i rent your room just for 1 week, or the days im there?". even in a real hotel you have to pay for the nights you have they keys to it, whether or not you were phsically there...

Time to find a new roommate.

Just take the high ground and ignore her! Even if you want to tell her to eat a bag of dicks

Don't worry about it OP. The only failure here is your aunt...& her unemployed drug addict offspring.

Kick her out. If someone had said that about me they would be out the door straight away.

I don't think that's necessary as the aunt is already going to move out

Family members tend to make the worst and most spiteful roommates......sorry OP

spending two days a week in that apartment is not a valid reason for a refund. that is not your problem but hers. however you can choose friends but not family. I feel with you.

What did your mother say? Did she defend you? I am not sure if it's a good thing she is moving out or not...due to rent payments...if needed I sure hope you can find a good roommate...

Really hoping your mom knows you both better than that! And really, nothing says failure like calling to tattle like that.
