When I say I'm OVER Sean being my roommate, it simply can not be stressed enough. I'M OVER IT! I can't remember if I mentioned this previously because I try not to complain too much because no one wants to hear me whine and many think I should've kicked his ar$e to the curb long ago? Anyway, he was served papers giving him notice to evacuate the

I want to do that and I will if he's not back by end-of-day on December 31st. However, legally I have to make his belongings accessible to him until that moment. I'm tempted to rent a storage unit, pack up all of his junk and move it there. It would be a Xmas gift to myself! Hatha. 😆

That sounds quite frustrating. How does the saying go? Givers must set limits because taker's never do? One thing I've never really been able to successfully explain to the non-critical thinking crowd is, "Its not that I don't care its simply not my responsibility." To them, that is a nonsensical, contradicting statement. Hooray, 2017?

I agree with and love everything that you've said here. It's like I need a flashcard in my minds eye, so when he's fighting with me, I can say "It's not that I don't care, it's simply not my responsibility - to take care of you - anymore."

Holy shit. I did not realize he was still there...or that it had been that long.

Sad but true, and there are moments it feels like an eternity for me. In fact, it's NOW December 2nd and he literally has 3 weeks left before he flies out to see his gf in Washington. Has he packed anything or found anywhere to live yet? Nope. I hear the excuses about how he can't find anywhere to live that's within his EXTREMELY limited budget, which is valid since his ex-wife does take a sizeable amount from child support, but after a certain amount of time; I'm done caring WHY or HOW. I just want it done and for him to get out.

Amen!

Girl, you have every right! You move out in the spring if you don't want to get thrown out during the holidays. That's how a man handles his own shit.

Seriously. It's maddening. He has no clue. Nothing is done. I even said to him yesterday morning: "those boxes I'm bringing home to you, you should pack up at least one of two each day to make the process seem less daunting, since the end of the month is almost here."

He didn't say anything. Like he's already got a backup plan in mind or he's just frozen into no-action thinking that if he ignores things, it will all go away?

In the meantime, I finally started dating and would not only like to invite my friends over to the house, but maybe a date for dessert & coffee, or whatever...but NOOOOO. He's always here or he's here with his kid and they just sit on my couch with the TV blaring, while they mindlessly stare at their own game consoles. No joke. That's how the first three hours of Thanksgiving day went for me. I stood in the kitchen while I was prepping food, watching them act like mindless robots.
