Is it normal to want to be homeless?

So basically, I am a Marine vet. I did my four years, and now when I left, I went back home to my family's. I already had a job lined up for me, my friend's parents own the business and got me hooked up, so I had a job as a warehouse man kicking boxes and stuff. Then a month later, the managers told me that they do not support the military, or veterans, so they terminated my employment. So I brushed it off and just tried to get back on my feet and find somewhere to work. Eventually my family didn't like how I wasn't working, so they kicked me out. I had nowhere to go, so I went to live with my fiance and her parents. They have been good to me, they treat me as if I already am a member of the family. I'm living with them to this day and I am still struggling to find work. I have sent resume after resume, application after application, left and right, and I have yet to hear a phone call or message or anything. I feel that it will get to the point where they wanna kick me out too. So if I can't find work, I might as well call myself homeless right now. Because that's how I'm gonna view myself. People who have steady careers or a steady job would never understand this, unless they got laid off or fired! What can I do!?

    A Marine Vet is a very impressive course to have. You probably had to study a damn lot to accomplish your degree. I dont think you should give up, there will be a place for you even if it's not related to veterinary medicine!

    Nothing wrong with wanting a simple life. It's rough all at the same time but where in life is everything all easy?

    It's not normal to WANT to be homeless, but it sounds as if your situation is pushing you in that direction. You should speak with a lawyer about the termination of your previous job. There is little you can do except keep looking for a job, and putting your best foot forward. Hopefully you will continue to receive the support that you need. On another note, I would like to thank you for your service.
