Pretty bad. I found out recently that my roommate has been lying to me and spent the rent money I gave him on something else. He hid it from me long enough for it to be irreparable. I can't get my roommate to be honest with me, and the apartment management are refusing to share any information with me (despite me still being on the lease) and won't even accept a payment from me or even tell me what our debt is, so now I'm almost certainly going have to go to court soon to be evicted.
I'm bipolar, so usually a major event like like this would send me either into a manic or a depressive episode. But for the first time that I can recall, I've been finding myself going rapidly between the two states throughout the day.
I know I will be fine. But right now, I'm not fine.
What the hell? This is so unfair, especially since you are on the lease. Shouldn't they be happy someone is trying to pay the debt? To me it almost sounds a bit like your landlord and roommate may be scheming something... No idea what or why though.
That's unfair to you, and does sound a little bit illegal on their side NGL, good luck to you
Thanks, and I agree. I'm not sure what grounds they have to withhold that sort of information from a lessee on. The lack of information from all angles makes it really difficult to prepare, because I have no idea what I need to be preparing for. It's been a very difficult week. :(
Check and see if there's an organization in your area called Legal Aid. They're in the SF bay area (and other places) and they do a lot of landlord/tenant stuff pro-bono.
