What is the name of your state? Washington, DC
I moved in with my boyfriend four months ago with a one year lease that we both signed. Turns out I recently found out he has alcoholic tendencies, and when he’s wasted for days, he turns into a different person that I do not recognize.
I really want out of this situation. I’d be happy to stay here on my own or find my own place. Sadly, the lease does not end until the end of October 2019, another 8 months. I feel like I am being held hostage here, whenever I want to break up, either he threatens me and doesn’t want to go talk to the landlord or he starts playing the victim, or starts being nice to get me to stay. This has turned into a toxic relationship over time and I just want to get out of here. I told him he cannot go drinking because he gets out of control, and he’s agreed in the past. But now he’s saying I cannot drink at all either, when I only ever have just a few beers with friends. I don’t care what he does anymore, I just want to live my life and get out of this situation. Please help!
