writes:Me and my long tearm boyfriend have recently split up and we have a 2 month old baby. I have recently declared my self homless and I will need to put my name down for a new home.I have 2 opptions, 1/ stay in the same area code as my x because he would have easy acsess to his daughter, he did say aswell that he couldn't afford bus fairs. Or 2/ move to a diffrent area, that is fairly close to my current location but a 30 minute bus ride. Here are the down sides to my 2 opptions. Opption number 1/ I would feel to close to home staying in this area code as my x boyfriend of 6 years. I tried for a LONG time to get out of this relationship and although we have parted on amicalbe tearms, It would feel to much like he was in my life liveing so close to me. All the houseing in my area that I would be apliying for is very close together. Who knows I could even end up liveing in the same street. 2/ I really like the area code I'm liveing at, it's a nice place to live, really feels like home. I just generaly like liveing here and it's a good decent area. I feel so torn, any helpful advice please. My x boyfriend has also asked me if he can keep the phone line and internet in my name because he carn't get credit and dosen't want to loose his internet. Is this a good or bad Idea. We are both being good friends but I don't know if this is right. Feels a bit like something a couple would do.

 I say take the option that is closest to where you are now. It will be good to be close to home, and for your daughter to be able to see her dad more regularly. Do not keep the bills in your name!

1). You need to move wherever you feel most comfortable, and wherever is most suitable for your daughter. A 30 minute bus ride isn't that far! But wherever the better schools and facilities for your child are is where you need to be.
2) Don't keep the internet and phone in his name. Your his ex, and you need to get rid of it. Again, he needs to be standing on his own two feet. Don't get ripped off.
