I moved across the country a few months ago and when I moved I let a good friend come live with me (She was homeless before hand). This good friend is unemployed, and I pay for the whole apartment and all the bills.

The jealousy started started setting in around last month. She spends all day out doing recreational bullshit, while I sit at home wanting to blow my brains out, working my day job. I'm completely new to this city, and she's lived around here a while, so when im off work (4/5PM) and I want to hang out with my one friend in the city, or be introduced to new things in this city, I can't because she's off doing all her own shit after that point. I slave my 40 hours away for an apartment that I live alone in 50% of the time and the other % where she's here I feel like I don't even have a friend.

​

We both make about the same level of mess in the apartment, but it doesnt bother her nearly as much as it bothers me, so I end up doing a lot of the cleaning of the living room and kitchen and bathroom. I want to stress that I don't feel like she's taking advantage of me, She takes up a very small footprint in the apartment, but I thought I'd have a very good friend to show me life in the city or whatever and she's off 5/6 nights a week doing anything else.

I rushed into this move because of how much she hated being homeless and I didn't want anything bad to happen (the move / a move was bound to happen eventually, so its honestly fine that it happened sooner). I don't hate our arrangement, I'm just jealous she gets to go spend 50 hours a week having fun / playing games and then has the rest of the week to do whatever she wants with her hundred of friends, and I get to work 50 hours (from home on my desktop PC) and then spend the rest of my time feeling like I know no one (because I do know no one)

​

I dont think it's her responsibility or obligation to introduce me to people/help me get established or find things to do in the city, but at the same time... I feel if i were in her shoes, I'd feel obligated to do that? I wouldn't want the person paying for my housing and food to feel out of place in a new area?

IDK.
