Hi, i just got put into a horrible scenario and i really don't know exactly what to do in this situation.
I currently have 2 residences. One is my college appartment, the other is my home. just today i was told by my roommate that he is deciding to move out next quarter, when we were supposed to be in there until june. He also refuses to help find a replacement roommate. this puts me in a bad situation for multiple reasons. the first being that we qualified for the appartment by signing together, and on our own we do not. With him leaving i will no longer be able to stay there myself without another cosigner. Plus, i go there for school not for friends. i have enough friends where i actually live, which is 160 miles from where i am going to school in bakersfield. so there is hardly any way that i can find a new roommate in the time allotted, as i essentially have 3 weeks. I can attempt dorming at the school, but they usually have a very large waiting list and that will be highly unlikely that i will be able to do that. So now i am unsure what i am to do. If i dont find another place i will have to stop attending school because i simply can not afford to stay on my own. when i ask him why hes moving out, he says im "hard to live with", which makes little sense to me because im only there 3, to 3 and a half days out of the week. it seems hes the kind of person that expects everything and to do nothing. we found a third roommate, to help us pay the rent. He decided to keep all of the rent from this person. I think my confronting him on that is what started this problem. The way it would have worked out was me paying 440 a month, the 3rd roommate 300, and him 140, with the 3rd roommate sleeping on a couch or my bed when im not there... This came out to be much longer than i thought it would be, but for those that read this, and possibly have some insight i thank you.
