Idk what I should do

If your aunt was really an asshole you’d be on the street man.

Sounds like she doesn’t want you in her place but loves you enough to let you stay until you get back on your feet. I’m sorry she’s verbally abusive but she’s probably having as much fun as you are living together. And no matter how you frame it you are going to look bad calling someone who is doing you such a huge favor an “asshole.”

You’ll have to find something ASAP, maybe even a job you were hoping you could avoid in the interim. Even if it can’t get you your own place, maybe you can help contribute to rent and bills and mend some of the discord between the two of you. Make it obvious you are grateful for the opportunity to get back on your feet and that you are making a real effort to get there.

I’d take a long hard look at your options if your goal is “stability.” Idk how stable you think living in a shelter is, or finding a job when you potentially don’t have a permanent address.

You aren’t a kid anymore, and she’s not your mom. It is not an enviable situation but your aunt does not sound like your biggest problem right now. Best of luck.
