(24F) Living a Nightmare With My Chinese BF (24M) and His Family

Even a 1 bedroom in Manhattan is only going to run 4k/month.

You can find very suitable living conditions for 2.5-3k/month in any major city, and that's being generous. You could do it for less than 2k, which would only be 1k split between you. If you can't afford that, then I don't know what to say, you guys must have picked some pretty useless majors and will drown in debt for the next 30 years because of it.

Learn how to be adults, get your own place, and stop projecting your self-centered idealism onto Chinese people who escaped the tortures of communism to run to a country where they've had to overcome immense racial, cultural, and language barriers just to survive. Sowwiieeeee that your BF's grandma doesn't bake you apple pie every sunday. Grow up.
