I swore off roommates many years ago. There were too many problems.
I don't think he will be around for that long. They just met and they will probably part soon but she has demonstrated that she isn't considerate.
Honestly, I think people should be allowed to have relationships if they have roommates but they should be discrete and stay out of your way at the very least. There should be conjugal visits but not every day. Twice a week is all that is required. Work it out somehow, but you can't always choose your roommates friends and monitor their behavior. That is why roommates are a problem.
You are being mature and reasonable about the situation. You can't bend people to your will and make them behave the way you want them to. If you aren't getting along in a domestic situation, then somebody has to go. You are taking the initiative and that is very wise.
Good points! This is my last foray into this type of situation. It's just not worth it, even for a considerable financial benefit. I absolutely agree overnight guests are fine on a more occasional basis- which was the purpose of the landlord putting in the 7 day per month limit. I don't have a lot of nice/valuable stuff but I'm also not thrilled about having another stranger around all the time. Anyway, the end is near!
He does have kids but don't think he's married- who knows though. I'm very curious what his living situation is because you would think almost any place would be preferable than somewhere with two roommates.
Found a new place! Only four days and I'm out! It's a decent place but most importantly no housemates!
She sent me a couple texts saying she couldn't believe I would just move out without having a further discussion (we already talked about it plenty, I decided the house isn't big enough for four people living here full time, besides it being prohibited in the lease and not even being introduced to the guy). We'll see who replaces me, according to her there have been some real doozies renting the room the past year before I got there. Or maybe, given how she complained about every single previous housemate (and me too now), I wonder if she's part of the problem? Probably doesn't matter too much as the landlord is still leaning toward evicting her and she can just get a place with the dude (though an actual joint lease signing given they've still known each other less than 5 weeks might be a bit quick).
