I'm having a really hard time with my soon to be ex-roomate. Anyone else want to share some horrible roommate stories to make me feel better?

So sorry for all the stress you are going through, sounds awful!

My own horror story:

I was living with my boyfriend, his best guy friend, and my best girl friend(who was also mutual friend with my boyfriend. the three of us had gone to high school together)

My boyfriend's friend they had met in college. We were all in our junior year.

I moved in a semester after they all had, and things went bad fast. Boyfriend's friend was a raging alcoholic. A complete slob. We tried to get him to get help, but he would just get angry and say he did not have a problem. He was in charge of the gas bill, so in the middle of winter he'd turn the heat to 50 so he wouldn't have to pay much. It was always freezing cold.

He also made sure I knew he found me attractive. Soon he would start grabbing me inappropriately or flashing himself at me when the other two were not around. I am a survivor of sexual assault with PTSD. I was 21 and fearful and not sure what to do. I didn't want to ruin my boyfriend's friendship. I tried to shrug it off and tell myself it was just because he was drunk all the time and that he was no real danger. Once I had invited a younger female relative to hang out with us for a weekend, and while I was gone from the apartment briefly he talked her into getting wasted by chucking vodka and tried to take advantage of her while she could not fight back. Boyfriend and I walked in on it and put a stop to it right away. I felt awful about that, still do to this day for ever leaving her there with him, and finally decided it was time to stop pretending this guy was harmless. I told my girl friend, and then she and I together told my boyfriend about the groping and things he had been doing to me. He immediately got angry and had a serious talk with his friend.

Things went completely to shit then. It was the three of us vs him. He started screwing his slutty girlfriend on our couch and making threats against us, especially me and my girl friend. The three of us made sure no one was ever alone in the apartment with him. It was very tense and scary. Finally our lease was up, and we all got an apartment and left him there to find new roommates. Never spoke to him again.

Boyfriend and I are married with a family. Two years ago, this guy emailed my husband apologizing for everything. Husband ignored it and never replied to him.
