Well I'm happy for you that they're out.

After she has the baby. The baby doesn't deserve that.

Atnaia wrote:For context of her psychotic behaviour, they first got together last summer, and broke up for a bit in September before getting back together at the end of October. Right after they broke up, she began accusing him of raping her, and spread that rumour through everybody he knew to try and get him shunned and to make his business collapse (he owns a house painting business). She tried to break into our apartment at that time too, and proudly said she had been cheating on him constantly. I have no idea how he thought it was a good idea to start dating her again, but a month after they did she was pregnant. Despite my insistence that he should get a paternity test (she had been claiming that she was cheating only a month before, after all), he never did, afraid that it would offend her. She used my shared diagnosis to make me feel bad and to "ask for my advice" in private, and tried to get me to tell her that he was a cheater and that he shouldn't be allowed to see his longtime female friends. When I told her that he was the most dependably trustworthy person I know when it comes to being a moral person, she flipped her sh*t and forced him to cancel a trip that he had been planning for months at the last minute because a female friend he has known for 20 years was going too. She broke his belongings when they fought, and smashed her head into walls, saying that he "made her hurt herself with his words". Note, she was pregnant and BASHING HER HEAD INTO WALLS LOUD ENOUGH TO WAKE ME UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT because he asked her to try and stay at her new apartment for a couple of nights. She consistently lied, fabricated, stole from and hurt him. I'm honestly surprised she never robbed me, I have several thousand dollars of valuable electronics in my bedroom and no external lock.

She is a horrible person, and what's worse, she uses her borderline diagnosis as an excuse. Which is bullsh*t because I have the SAME DIAGNOSIS and I have never done half the sh*t she has while staying here. Having the both of them out of my home will make my quality of life way better: I'll have a cleaner apartment, a better living situation, my own space to destress, and my apartment won't feel like a horrible place to be. Your home should be a place where you can unwind and escape from the drudgery of work and responsibility, but it has just been a prison of worry for me for a year. That's about to end.
He's a good friend and I love him, but he was hell to live with. I chose him as a roommate because I thought he would be low-key and low-stress, but he was the opposite. We only have this apartment because of me (I am long-time family friends with our landlords and have a closer relationship with them than most people have with their aunts/uncles, and they only rent to people they know because we can access their law firm at night as one of our fire escapes). He never respected that or my feelings in the relationship (he never asked me if his girlfriend was allowed to stay here, for example, and he frequently told me major things regarding our living situation LAST, after all our other friends, like when he found out she was pregnant, which naturally meant a few things about our apartment situation). I'm glad that he's leaving before it irreparably damaged our 11 year friendship. I'm also glad to be seeing the back of them before his girlfriend did something that made us lose our lease, which was only a matter of time. She's a convicted criminal, a compulsive liar and a manipulative bitch, and she has done really horrible things to people. It's time they were both gone.

How long were you in that situation? That seems very toxic.

Since last June. I set rules in August, but when she wound up pregnant my good side won over my logic and I bent the rules for the sake of the baby.

Well good luck now, hope your friendship didn't break though.

That's awesome Atnaia, I'm happy for you that you're out of that BS situation. *Raises glass* To your health.

Gonna find a new roommate?

As I said, any longer and it would have. But the pregnancy meant that I knew the worst of it had an expiration date for me. Now I can focus on being his friend and not his roommate whose life got screwed.

No, I can afford the place by myself. I want to live by myself somewhere I can take pride in. Somewhere I can bring a girl home and not be ashamed of the mess made by the two dysfunctional, codependent children I live with.

Sucks he won't get a paternity test. You know it is women like that who make actual rape allegations need to be taken with an air of uncertainty and a possibility of falsehood. What a shame.

Well that's good man. Why did you have a roommate then if you could afford it by yourself?

Polar svalbard wrote:Well that's good man. Why did you have a roommate then if you could afford it by yourself?

Just because you *can* pay the rent bill doesn't mean it gives you financial security in doing so.

He could have started making more money

Was used to life with others

The rape allegations mean nothing for that situation. The "I cheated on you" story does. She says she was lying, but she could be lying about lying, and the fact that she may have slept with someone else around the time she got pregnant should have meant he got the test as soon as possible. I know this baby is eventually going to wind up under the watchful eye of Family and Children Services. My mum is the lawyer for the CAS and I know the system well, and that kid won't be taken away but WILL be monitored to make sure it is safe. With her as a mother, I'm worried. Her response to a kitten mewing was to lock it in a bedroom alone for 8 hours. How do you think she will handle a crying baby?

Yeah, that's an awful situation and I wish the best for that baby. Man crazy sh*t in the world. Why wouldn't it get taken away?

God save the child. I really really hope that the woman can put it together for her child...

Couldn't afford it alone when I moved in. I moved in when I was a part-time, commission sales worker at an electronics store. My chain of stores closed and I lost my job and was unemployed for a few months, then I was working as a camp counsellor, then I was a semi-employed janitor, then I was a part time membership services representative at my gym, then I got my personal trainer certification, then I got full time. Since working full time I can afford it. But I wasn't about to kick him out, although I got close when they started dating the second time. Then she got pregnant and I knew his tenancy had a deadline. That made it easier, albeit no less stressful, to grin and bear it for the last 6 months.

Polar svalbard wrote:Yeah, that's an awful situation and I wish the best for that baby. Man crazy sh*t in the world. Why wouldn't it get taken away?

Because innocent until proven guilty. She ain't in jail yet and they will not get separated until the Canadian version of CPS gets alerted. I could be wrong.

He will have main custody, and his family support structure is super strong. He may not be ready to be a dad, but his mother and father are going to love the hell out of that baby, and they have raised 8 good kids between them (they're divorced and have two families, and the kids have all turned out good, even if my roommate made a really bad decision with this girlfriend, but c'est la vie, it was his first real relationship ever and he made the stupid mistakes everyone makes, only 10 years too late).

Makes sense. You're a good practitioner of the American Dream it would seem. Not giving up in a pursuit for a better life. Anyways, this is awesome Atnaia. Now the next step is to bag a girl.

That's got nothing to do with it. A baby will only be removed from a household under these circumstances, sure, but they have two separate households. CAS (or FCS, as it is now called) will give the baby to the parent who is most qualified to raise it, and that will be him, with the support of his mom and dad. The girlfriend doesn't have any support, she's estranged from her family, and she's a bad person, so even though family courts tend to give leniency towards the mother, the EMPLOYED, SUPPORTED father will win any custody trial over the UNEMPLOYED, MENTALLY DISTURBED mother.

Not any American Dream. I'm Canadian, and I certainly don't see it in any high minded way. I needed to work to eat, so I took the first job I could get even though I don't always love it. I'd rather be doing work with less customer service, but I would never be able to find something with the same pay and benefits in this job market. I don't have a degree after all. So I need to go back to school in some capacity. But to do that means, surprise surprise, giving up my job and stability. I have been looking into distance learning classes so that maybe I could do it in my spare time.

If she's mentally disturbed do you think she'll get an abortion? Is she happy with her pregnancy?
