Hi futz, I just read your post now. My heart goes out to you for being in this terrible situation. You certainly are being manipulated and your saftey and mental health and wellbeing is definatly at stake. Stay safe. Do whatever you have to do to stay safe. The womans' center and shelter sounds like a good place to start. At least you will have someone to talk to in real person who could give you advice and support. Also, the story about you having to evict him legally sounds like BS to me. Why would you legally have to evict him if he's not "legally" living with you? I'd throw his ***** out the door and if he *****es I'd tell him to call the cops. When the get there tell them the truth. Tell them you don't want this crack head living with you and that he has no right to be living with you. If he were to make one threat to you you could file an emergency PFA. That would legally get his ***** out the door for good. Maybe you could even go for a PFA even if he didn't threaten or harm you. You could tell the magistrate because he is a crackhead and is forcing you to legally evict him, otherwise he won't leave, that you are afraid for your life. I'd give the whole story. You have nothing to loose other than loosing a looser living in your home.
Why doesn't he go and live with someother crackheads living in the same complex?

This is such BS! No one needs to live in a situation like this. Get as many people on your side as you can for support. Definatly contact the woman's center.

I wish you the best. Take care of yourself. Let us know how things turn out. If you need anyone to chat with you can always pm me, and of course you will always find emotional support here on PC.
