Why can't the boyfriend stay with you when the roommate is there? I assume the bf would stay in the same room as you? Just too awkward?

He doesn't want to because of the things I've told him about my roommate and my past relationship.

My boyfriend isn't insecure. It's pretty obvious I have no romantic love for this person that lives at my house. We are actively making plans for when he moves in regarding how we want to live here. I'm glad he is supportive instead of jealous. I really need the support because this situation, while seeming funny from the outside, is actually extremely stressful for me.

Dude strikes me as a bit of a loon, so just take care of yourself jen. Consider not being around on move out day, or have your new guy and maybe some of his buds around to make sure that he doesnt try to do something stupid.

And yeah, change the fucking locks the next day.

I'm having the locks changed December 31st. I'm going to make an appointment to have it done that day.

I am only living this way because he has sexually assaulted me before and I'm just trying to bide my time until he leaves. I just desperately wanted to keep my house and this was the only way. I've gotten everything I wanted and needed so I'm just waiting for the day I can be free.

Like I know a lot of you find this situation comical and I agree at times it is. But I'm actually in a semi dangerous situation for my personal safety. Making jokes about having a poor taste in men are funny sure but I am a victim of familial abuse and I didn't used to pick good partners. (my college boyfriend Chris was a great boyfriend but I was not well) Abuse is a cyclical pattern. So I'm in an abusive relationship right now with my roommate because he refuses to leave the house knowing I can't really evict him. He's ruined so much of my property and I have to replace it when he leaves. He's forcing me to put a pause on my life because he refuses to just move out.

If you can document any form of abuse at all you could get a restraining order on him which would force him to move out early. No reason to put up with that at all if it goes on still. That really sucks as last I heard (been awhile) he was fairly supportive and just wanted kids, which you didn't, and he knew that, but figured you would change your mind, which is why you guys split up.

Dec 31'st is still along time to go, which really sucks hard if your in that situation. Now that he is a tenant, you could possible just rent out the other space in the house until he leaves (make it obvious it's a short term lease/renting opportunity), and either move in with spidey, or rent another place for the short term (if you can't go the restraining order route).

Sorry you're in such a crappy situation Jen. At least an end is in sight, but if it's really bad, considering finding a temp solution so you don't spend 5 months super stressed and unhappy.

Sometimes I worry because I have a handgun in the house. On the plus side since he started dating this woman he has been drinking a lot less. He was drunk almost all the time he wasn't working before and it made me especially scared for my safety because he was drunk when he assaulted me.

His parents are total enablers of any behavior their sons exhibit.

My mother also recently sent a text message to my roommate to congratulate him on his engagement and ask him out to dinner even though I haven't talked to my parents since May 2020 and my roommate and I have been broken up since August 2020. My boyfriend and some friends are the only support I actually have.

Apologies for any jokes I made earlier (which werent meant to be at your expense, but more to make light of things), I didnt realize the gravity of the situation. That sounds like a frightening and traumatic situation to be in. Wish I could offer actual help or advice, but all I can offer is my solidarity. I know how much toxic and abusive living situations can take their toll. Hope youre out of it sooner than December.

Is the handgun locked up and secured so that only you have access to it? I dont want to put more worry in your head, and Im sure on some level having access to a weapon offers some feeling of security, but it can be a liability if youre not 100% confident its only you who has access to it. My best friends brother murdered his girlfriend before killing himself with a handgun. There were threats and warning signs before the actual murder/suicide (and before the gun was even available considering he had a literal swastika tattoo on his foot), but its a very real risk when a gun is available.

It's okay. Jokes don't upset me lol. That's the nature of this board. I post shit here because it's nice to have a place to vent regardless of what people say to me. I know your personality so your jokes are not malicious or harmful to me.

Yes. When he's home I have it locked in a safe that can only be opened with a code or my fingerprint. Otherwise it's in my purse.

What you stated is a worry for me. I'm hopeful since he has a "fiance" now he won't go that route.

I think having a fiance definitely mitigates the likelihood of it happening, and having it locked to a code and fingerprint only you have definitely will help prevent that. Hopefully he just moved out asap regardless. Why does he want to keep living there when hes about to get married. He genuinely sounds insane

When he told me he was engaged the first thing I asked is if he was going to move out soon because I really wanted my boyfriend to move in. He looked me in the eyes and said he wasn't going to inconvenience himself for my boyfriend and he still wasn't moving out. She was within earshot when he said this.

So he isn't going to inconvenience himself so I can move on but he can inconvenience me and put my life on hold.

It's literally abuse.

Please explain why your exbf/roommate was never arrested for sexual assault. I know you live in Arizona so you being white and him being Mexican should have at the least resulted in his deportation.

Him being Mexican? He was born in the United States. You are racist and this post is weird.
