 I thought I would post an update to my New Year's situation ie; disappearing b/f and tentative living arrangement. All is well and quiet again here at the sober living. Everybody seems to have pulled together and voiced their concerns to the manager about how she deals with things. Hopefully the sane behavior continues - but I've seen a flip happen quickly. I keep my side of the street clean and go to bed at night without any feelings of shame or guilt.
As far as my quasi b/f goes...I've since learned that after borrowing the money from me, he left his phone and my ATM card with a "friend" as collateral for monies owed. I can only imagine what that money was spent on. I've learned this info by calling James' phone and actually having a conversation with the guy who's waiting for $200.00 before he gives the phone back. I was getting worried that James might be dead, and hoping that he had put himself in to a rehab, but he called the keeper of the phone yesterday and told him he's in Santa Monica. (I live in Pasadena.) James even sold his coat for money. AHHH, the insanity of the disease of addiction. I am blessed that I do not have that obsessive thinking and haven't for quite awhile. Sincerely, drinking or using just isn't an option for me today. 
Well, I'm off to my Sunday AA meeting...Scooterb
