Well, I have two things going for me. At least, I think I do. First being that he seems to regard me as a semi-friend, or at least someone he isn't afraid of [he'll seek my company out from time to time]. Second being that the renewal on the lease is coming up here. Apparently he wants to re-new his lease. My room-mate only told me this after I mentioned that I was going to work on getting him either removed, or blocked on a second lease. Why she hasn't told me before is beyond me. Ileah...yeah, Moros pretty much nailed it. She's well-meaning but the woman is just in her own little world, has her head in the clouds, and is completely, totally, blissfully unaware. She has all the perceptiveness of a blind otter, and it drives me nuts sometimes, especially when it causes situations like this.
Her biggest problem is she's way too trusting, and she's gullible as FUCKING HELL. It's screwed her over I dunno how many times in the time we've been living together, where she trusts people implicitly for no reason [and sometimes in direct evidence to the contrary].
So I told her that from here on out, any time we have someone else thinking about moving in with us, they go through me, first, cuz clearly I can't trust her to cautious enough for the sake of basic safety. She didn't even think to ask ANYTHING about this guy whatsoever. For all she knew, she was inviting a fucking rapist to come live with us.
*pinches bridge of his nose*
Worse, she was inviting a fucking murderer to come live with us. A paranoid schizophrenic killer. Fucking...ARGH!!
So anyway. I told the apartment people that it comes down to the following: Either he goes, or me and Ileah go. They lose one, or they lose two. Simple as that. I'm going to wait to hear something from them only as late as tuesday, if I hear nothing, I'm going to go into the office and tell them that if they haven't come to a decision by Friday, that we're going to start making plans to bail. That'll get them moving. As far as eviction goes, if it causes decompensation, well, I'll be keeping my phone VERY fucking close by with 911 on speed-dial. On the plus side, the guy weighs maybe 160 lbs and I weigh around 190, so if it comes to a grapple while the cops come, I can hold my own.
So, I'm covered, at least, as best as I can be, for now. We'll see where the apartment company is going to take this, and...guess I'll proceed from there.
I'm going to chew Ileah out over this if this gets ugly, I really am.
