[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up very spoiled. As an adult I'm realizing what a disservice this was. I still hold onto a lot of unrealistic expectations and fantasies about life. It's hard for me to accept compromise and life's harsh realities. Anyone ever get through something like this?[/quote] I grew up in a really nice house and it was very, very difficult for me to live in the slumlord apartments around college campuses in undergrad and grad school. Going from a brand new 5000sqft house that is constantly spotless to a 70 year old basement apartment that has about 5.6 unidentifiable and probably toxic smells, dust that drops from seemingly nowhere and kitchen cabinets falling apart is terrible. I eventually worked my way back but honestly after 8 years of slumming it, I don't think I ever would have gotten used to the kind of apartments that go for ~1k per month.[/quote]
