No longer desire to live with roommate


What is the name of your state? Washington

My roommate and I are no longer getting along. I will spare you the saga. The bottom line is that I would like to no longer have to live with her, however she has already told me that she will not sign a roommate release or terminate lease form. We are both on the lease.

My questions:
- Do both parties need to sign a terminate lease form to end the lease?
- Do I need her permission to sublet my share of the apartment?
- Do I have any other options?

Thank you in advance...

My lease does not mention it, however my landlord (agent) said that legally I need her permission.

We currently split the rent ~60/40 (verbal agreement). Can I at least force her to start pay 1/2 legally? We pay individually.
