Absolutely in shock.

I just found out that the $250 I gave to my roomate to hold on to, has been spent.

That was all the money I had until my next cheque comes... so I am up %#@&#! creek without a paddle now thanks to that person.

I am literally freaking out, I don't know what I am going to do. The person told me that they gave it to a friend to hold on to so they wouldn't spend it. However, this was a lie.... and I just found out. It was spent on coke.

I can't stop crying... I have no idea what I am going to do now....I have 0 dollars and I am still facing eviction at the end of the month.

I really am having a hard time.. all I want to do is cut myself but I am trying really hard not to. I can't beileve that someone would do that to me.

I need... I dont know what I need. I need this awful feeling to go away and I need the head noise to calm down...

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Rainbowzz}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} What a rude shock for you! I'd be so freakin' mad right about now!

It's my understanding that it takes quite a while to evict someone. First, you have to be behind in rent payments for three months and then the legal process to get you out takes long enough so that you could catch up on the payments. Someone here where I live said it could take up to a year for the legal process to go through.

Please stay safe! Don't harm yourself! It will work out for you! Absolutely in shock

Thanks everyone for your responses...

After sleeping I think i have a better perspective on things and am feeling much calmer.

My mom is going to send me $1000 to put on the back rent, god bless her heart, so at least thats one good thing taken care of. I am calling the food banks to see if they can do a delivery for me as well.

Thanks everyone again.

Not sure if I should bring this up or not. The thing is your friend Absolutely in shock committed a crime or two there. She or he stole your money to buy an illegal drug.

Very glad to hear your Mom could help you out.
Please take care of you.

Absolutely in shock <font color="red"> </font> IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE IT'S TIME TO TAX YOUR ROOMATE AND GET RID OF HER.YOU MAY NOT KNOW WHAT TAXING IS,IT'S A SLANG WORD FOR TAKING YOUR MONEY BACK IN OTHER WAYS,LIKE $250.00 WORTH OF HER BELONGINGS IN PLACE OF YOUR MONEY,OR A "BLANKET PARTY" WORTH $250.00 IN MEDICAL BILLS AT LEAST! AND THEN THROW HER JUNKY *** OUT ON THE STREET,SO SHE CAN PAY THE STREETS RENT,CAUSE OBVIOUSLY SHE'S NOT PAYING THE RENT THERE! WHY LET HER STAY,AND RISK LOSING MORE MONEY,OR GETTING BUSTED FOR HAVING DRUGS ,OR PARAPHENALIA IN YOUR APARTMENT THAT ISN'T YOUR'S.THE COPS DON'T CARE WHO IT BELONGS TO,THEY JUST CARE WHO'S NAME IS ON THE LEASE,UNLESS THEY FIND IT ON HER PERSON,AND SHE SAY'S YOU HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT AND NO KNOWLEDGE OF IT,WHICH IT SOUNDS LIKE SHE'S NOT THE TYPE TO HELP YOU OUT OF A JAM! I'D TAX HER,AND GET HER OUT OF THERE,AND TAKE CARE OF YOU,AND YOUR OWN.YOU ARE YOUR PRIORITY,NOT A DRUG ADDICT THAT IS WILLING TO HAVE YOU THROWN OUT ON THE STREET SO SHE CAN GET HIGH! YOU ARE #1 PRIORITY IN YOUR LIFE,NOT HER! AND OBVIOSELY SHE'S NOT THINKING ABOUT YOUR SAFETY,AND SECURITY! Absolutely in shock

no, its fine that you brought it up.

And I talked to him, and he knows he has a problem and is struggling to get over it on his own...no excuse but at least he is recognizing it.

Oh, hon, divorce yourself from this guy ASAP! As soon as possible get him out of your life. He can't handle it on his own, and he has already proven himself to be a liar and theft. It's the drugs doing this to him and your to good a person to go down with him.
Please, hear what Justice had to say. Drug addicts are not honest caring people, he's taking advantage of you. Please ,enabling him will only hurt you.
Please, Please, it is not fine.
Like Justice said "your #1 priority is you"

I agree with Justice and Southern....
Addicts have a way of conning you and everyone, despite what they say they feel for you.
Get him OUT!

if your roomate won't help with rent and food you need to get him out remmeber if the authorities catch him doing drugs they can get you also, you maybe innocent but your condoning his actions, plus you can do better

I have decided (probably against better judgement) to allow him to stay FOR NOW. But it comes with conditions - no drugs in the house, no being high in the house, and he HAS to be actively seeking work from here on in. I am giving him the rest of the month to prove himself and if he doesn't then as much as I care for his well being... hes out.

And your right, I dont want to be caught up in something I had no part of to begin with.

Hi Rainbowzz,

Since you decided to give him a second chance, then I hope for your sake that before the month is over you don't find yourself missing more of your personal belongings. Good luck to you and hope it all works out the way you are hoping it will.

What your roomie is doing is "sucking up" to you. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS!!!!! He may indeed feel guilty for what he has done, but it will not stop him from doing it again in the very near future.

The only way he can guarantee his sincerity is to put himself into rehab or NA and dumping ALL his friends that are associated with his drug use. Otherwise, you are looking at losing more than just your $250.

And I wouldn't just "hide" your valuables, I would remove them entirely from your residence. Seriously! Do you really think that he would not stoop to go hunting for them when you are not around?

An addict's mind is on one thing only - AND IT AIN'T YOUR WELFARE, NOR YOUR FRIENDSHIP that he is concerned about. You will lose this game. He has already lost, but he can (and will) take you down much farther than you ever thought possible.

Watch yourself, Rainbowzz!
