Roommates are for college students, not grown men.

Time to grow up.

Really a stupid, small minded comment. Roommates are a great way to meet people, have a helping hand in life, serve as security in crap areas and above all else save thousands of dollars. Clearly you're an ignorant individual who has not lived in many major cities (Charlotte doesn't count) were roommates are beneficial and in many cases necessary. Having 7k+ more in your bank account is hardly immature, on the contrary. In fact I've done it for years even though I could live alone and because I have, I'll be buying my own house, a house I want, soon where I want to live.

The issue is choosing a good roommate. Don't chose drama and be smart about it. The best roommates are business roommates. You're both there to save money, you know each other not as friends, but through respect.

As far as your situation...from a buisness perspective, most roommates who have the master pay more rent. It makes it simple and is what most people do. If that's not the case, flip a coin.

You need a new roommate. He sounds like he is flip flopping, and being that crazy emotional over a girl is a clear sign he is insecure and unstable. This is clearly not a professional/buisness only relationship. Since he is on the lease and you're stuck, my advice is to flip a coin for the room, that can't be argued fair or not, it's chance.

Also stop getting personal with your roommate and create a more professional relationship with them based on respect. Things will go much smoother. Stop choosing friends, ex's, girlfriends you're not serious with, and people you think are 'cool' to be your roommate and choose someone respectful, level headed and neutral.

I'm stuck with him for at least another year.  I was in a tough spot having to find a place on short notice in a tough time or year in Austin.  We just got through with SXSW and good luck trying to find a place and move during that clusterfug.  I think it's clear neither of us want to live together again but neither of us really had another option.  I'm hoping by next year I'm in a better place financially to live on my own.  The house we're moving to is on a semi-busy street in a not so great neighborhood so I doubt I end up living there more than a year.

Believe me I wouldn't live with his ass anymore if I had the means to live by myself. I had 30 days to figure something out, and unless I took a temp sublet with some random craig's list people (yuck) it was either live with him again, or get my own place and pay an arm and a leg to live in a closet.

You make it very difficult to make jokes.

I do have a closet for rent but I have 18 plants in there.

      Deebo wants out of SF, and our current odds are high

      By frankw · Posted

      This is from 5 months ago. It was one or the other. Trade for one or draft one. We apparently called the Jets about Wilson. We also talked to the Seahawks about Metcalf. Drafting our own guy was the best course of action given the required investment. Regardless now is the time for Bryce Young to produce. We are fourth amongst all teams in cap spending on the OL. Back to back first round picks at WR and multiple young TE draft picks now. Very solid and respectable backfield. New pieces across the defense. The time is now.

      Get ready for ‘SUPER MEN: The inside story of the 2015 Carolina Panthers’

      By Basbear · Posted

      That was just the worst time to have their worst game of the season. One key deal was the broncos guess the Panthers would NOT change any plays or flow to the game. Another key point overlook that bronco defense was truly one of the best in the NFL history. It was the best defense the Panthers faced that year, by far. They were not ready for it, but broncos were ready for the Panthers. Mix in that bad luck, poor refs showcase, and this is the golden boys last game........ Panthers needed to win by 20 and the broncos defense was not going to allow that.  Panthers were the faviotes and I believe they also thought that it was going to easier than them destorying NFC playoff teams as they marched to the SB. I've heard darin Gantt say the play calls were to give remmers help, but for some reason the team never did it. During the year they never had that problem, so maybe never practiced giving help via TE/RB, or WR chip. Cam was superman that year, no need for any adjustments...... Until you meet a legendary defense with studs at all levels, Think about it, Peyton was throwing wingless dunks for the whole season, the defense had to carry his corpse to the SB. That's how good they were, no many defense are able to get to the playoffs and win a SB without decent QB play. If you recall the beginning of that denfese took Tim Teblows and his non-throwing arse to the playoffs couple years before. That's insane the level of defense needed to overcome.

      Teddy Checkdown in trouble

      Who cares if he paid for such small benefits out of his own pocket? The NCAA is a joke. They need to be offering such anyway, especially for Uber rides (which actually seems like a good idea).
