<prompt> Human: Hi. Throwaway because my partner knows my reddit account. The time has come for me to move out of my current livingromantic situation and I need some help figuring out how to do it as quickly as possible. I am in a controlling situation where my SO hasnt wanted me to work for the past couple of years and instead stay at home and take care of the house, so I havent been working and have 0 saved. I have a job interview tomorrow and have been applying to many more jobs I occasionally do 3-5 day gigs that usually average 500 take home pay. I have one of these scheduled for the end of August and one for the beginning of October. I know that I will need to find roommates, Im not too concerned about that as I know several people. I dont have a car or a drivers license, and take public transportation everywhere, which is not a big deal. Im also considering asking a close friend if I can sleep on their couch for a little bit.I know that as soon as I start working things are going to rapidly get worse. What can I do to prepare myself to leave? What can I do to leave as soon as possible? Im so lost, but cant be in this situation anymore. Thank you for your helptldr: need to move out quickly. no car, no credit, no savings, job interviews lined up. totally lost.Assistant: I cant say much for the rest of the situation, but you absolutely need to find a roommate. I know you might want to rush this but your roommate needs to be someone you trust to not tell your current SO. Knowing a lot of people does not equate to knowing lots of people with a discreet room for rent. Knowing only what you put in the post, you need discretion above all else because many controllingabusive people will try to find you and force you to go back. I hope for your sake this isnt your situation but it cannot hurt to be cautious. Be safe OP.Human: Thank you so much, I really appreciate it. At the moment Ive only told my best friend and my mom, who I know wont talk to anyone about this. My friend will be looking for someone come December, and Id love to room with this person then, but I would like to get out sooner. Im trying to be a secretive about this as possible. Its been very hard to pretend that things are normal, but I know Ive got to do it.  <response>: Consider calling an abused womens shelter, they might be able to point you in the right direction.
