Help on getting girlfriend to leave my apartment


What is the name of your state? North Carolina

Hello- first post here.

About three months ago I got back together with a girlfriend from a few years back.

She was (is) on hard times so I suggested her and her son come and stay with me.

She works but contributes nothing. She is verbally and as of last night physically abusive
and I want her to leave - now.

She has claimed in the past that she has nowhere to go (she does) and that she has 30 days to stay here.

What can I do? My apartment has become a hostile battleground.

I had to stay in a hotel last night (Christmas) after I bought her son and her 3 other children all the presents because she couldn't afford to buy any herself. Some appreciation huh.

And yes, she is doing cr*ck and stays out all night sometimes. I mention this because that's where her money goes.

Thanks for your advice. SD

**A: make sure she has some crack on her then call the cops when she is outside of your building.

File for a restraining order.
Start eviction proceedings.

HG's method is quicker.

100mph; why didn't you call the police last night when she became physically abusive? Record any physical activity against you to defend a restraining order should you attempt to have one issued.

She doesn't bring it to the house - she knows better-
Plus, I hope that was a joke.

As far as restraining order, how do I provide proof?
Her son will back her up, not me.

Should I speak with my management office?

Because I basically don't like getting the police involved.

I just prefer to walk away, which I did.

then you are setting yourself up to be on the losing end of a conflict.

Since you want her to walk away, and she won't, you need to treat her like the adversary she is. If you simply allow her to ignore your demands, you will always lose.

Either take charge or get walked on.

With HG, I'm not sure.

Well, a police report would be a lot of supporting proof but you do not want to go that way. So, you file for one, tell the judge why thre should be one and hope she does not try to convince him otherwise.

What do they care? As long as they get their money and you are not a big problem, they don;t. If you or your guest) become a problem, they simply evict you..

You're right- I know that.

It's just that she is a very convincing "victim"
and knows how to play the game to perfection.

She is very, very good looking with these "sweet"
innocent eyes and can cry like an Oscar winner at will.

She makes men melt. She did it to me - twice now.

Just venting a bit - but that's what I envision if the cops show up.

How can this frail, petite little angel hurt a "tough" guy like me?

Believe me- look up gorgeous she-devil and you'll see her picture.

Please, I mean no offense to anyone here - I'm just frustrated.

Treat her like a tenant and give her WRITTEN notice of eviction. Get it to her before the end of the month so that she'll be out by the end of next month. If she's not, you'll have to get a judge ordered eviction.

just give her a little more time with the crack. Once the cops see her looking like this;

it will be obvious what she has been up to.








Sorry, I just couldn;t resist.

It's not a matter of her hurting you, it is a matter of her committing aussault and battery. Just be sure you do not touch her. On top of everythng else, a police report helps you to document the problems. She will have to speak to the cops each time they come out. If she lies, that is actioanable by the police should they wish to persue it after it is discovered.

If youdon;t want to do that, then learn how to evict her and get started. the sooner you take action, the sooner she will be out.

Thanks - I needed that, sincerely, -it's the first time I've laughed in days.

But like I said - she goes off and doesn't bring it around the house thank goodness.

Then she comes back crying and all.

Yes, again you're right. But at the time it would have been five against me witness wise.

And no- I would never touch her. I was raised to walk away and cool off.
She hurts me more on the inside that out anyway you know?

That's what I meant about talking to the office ladies.
They are usually very helpful with everything else.

And thank you by the way - It's good to "talk" it out sometimes.
I'm usually very refrained.

are you callng me one of the office ladies? Now after all I have done for you... Just kidding. Did you know that there really is an actual term "office ladies". it refers to young Japanese women that server tea and take dictation in business offices. They are typically single and live with their parents. I went looking for a pic but when you google office ladies and then go to images, those ladies are taking more than dictation
