Our contract is up on Saturday. So this realtor, excuse me Realtor, who promised to sell my house- who claimed to be just the best in the biz and had references to prove it has failed me. Has broken her promise. I just want her to come get her stupid sign out of my yard so I won't feel like such a loser. It's like being one of the last 2 kids left in gym and the teacher just splits you up so no one is actually picked last. Nice try Mr. Yogan, but I already know it would have been me. I just can't kick the ball hard. If I make it to first I stay there the whole time.
My house. My loved beautiful house. Nobody wants it. sigh I know the housing market is slow. I know the market is flooded with real estate. Pishaw. Yadda yadda. I get a newsletter every month from Ms. Shoulderpads that tells me how many houses she has sold. In that month. And it's always 6 or more. Our house has never made the list. Must have a homemade gym uniform. I don't think she should send that letter. I know that letter is supposed to instill hope into the eyes of home-sellers... but as for me... and my occasionally cynical attitude- I just think "So THIS is what you've been doing all month instead of selling my house!"
Plus there's all this hype with saying "I'm moving." You tell your family. And then your friends. And then your neighbors. And then your friends' family. And then strangers at the deli counter. And everyone is so sad and wishes you weren't leaving. But, here I am four months later... still here... and everyone is acting like I've already moved. No one wants to continue flourishing our relationship because to them I am gone already. Or ought to be gone already. And they've basically already said their goodbyes. In their hearts.
I'm the girl who cried moving. And cries because she isn't moving.

I'm so sorry your house didn't sell! I'm sure that's really frustrating!! Realtors can claim they're the best all they want, but that's not going to help much in this kind of market. I know so many people that have put their houses up and taken them down like you.
That is so frustrating! I can completely relate on people acting as if you've already moved. I guess it shows you who your true friends are.
Wow, I cannot believe how fast time flies. I'm so sorry. That would be so frustrating. I'm still here, and I'm still your friend, homie slicie. In fact, I'm going to call you riiiight... now.
