My roommate and I have been couch surfing for several months. We’ve had significant difficulty finding a place in Metro Atlanta area. The market is horrendous in this area, and it likely doesn’t help that I’m openly trans. The current situation is untenable in the long term, and we need to get settled somewhere.
A mutual friend of ours in Daytona Beach reached out and suggested that we join her in Daytona Beach. I know. I can already hear you. Are you kidding? Florida⁉ DeSantis and the GOP? Believe me, I’ve been mulling this over for days. Honestly, it’s not much different than the political situation here in Georgia. We have Marjorie Taylor Greene. She’s worse than DeSantis, in my opinion.
Anyway, it’s the only long term offer we’ve gotten. And when her current lease is up, the three of us plan to get a house together. Think a reboot of The Golden Girls. Wish us luck. We may very well need it. Blessed Be.

I think a lot of situations are better than appears. I base that on living in AB (aka Texas North) which isn’t all bad. Your friend is established and can vouch for you and your partner and being older is a plus in this case.
Best of luck!

Thanks Cass! I agree, older is probably an advantage.
