tenant problems

[b909194]

I have moved in with this guy I am seeing, and the landlord knows that I live here. I was not added to the lease, because I did not want to be responsible for his bills incase we were to split up. We have been living together for 1 year and latley we have been arguing. Last night my boyfriend insisted that I move right that minute, or he would call the police. I informed him that I am a subtenat because he has given me the right to live here. I help out with the money to a point. He says he knows my financial situtation, and does not expect much on money from me. Last night he then decided to write a paper telling me I have until the beginning of March to leave the apartment. I am planning on leaving, but if for some reason I do not have all of the money for this place, is there something I can do leaglly to keep from being put on the streets. I have no family here. Moved here 1 1/2 years ago so I do not know many people. We started dating when I lived in my homestate. I live in the state of Arizona.

How about getting a JOB, maybe 2 jobs to raise some money...

Got anything to pawn?

You are a woman and expected to pay your share of the bills NO EXCUSES....

I guess your boy friend wants a better caliper of woman then you...someone that can pay her own way and is responsible with money.

Men do not like women who are broke!

djdj, for your information I do have a JOB, and it is a very nice paying JOB. When I moved in he did not want any money from me, even though I offered, and left money on the table for him. Some of the bills were in MY name, and then he insisted that I put them in his name. I pay my long distance phone bills, help raise and support his 7 year old son whose mother is not around and wants nothing to do with him. I also give him 150 every other week to help. I put my paycheck each week into our joint checking/savings accounts! After all of this it leaves me pretty broke! He knows how much is in the bank and has access to it also. I was wanting to know if he had an right doing what he was planning on doing. I have lived here for a year, and HAVE contributed to my responsibilities, and then some. My name is not on the leaase, and none of the bills are in my name anymore. I have quit helping with the child, so that I can save my money to leave. Until then, I wanted to know what rights I have here also.

Maybe you would do better to post this on the Family law forum.

As personal advice, I would advise you to leave immediately no matter what your money situation. How can you continue to live with a guy that you don't love? Just get up and go, and you will solve any other problems. It doesn't make sense to ask if you have any options of staying in a situation like this.
