You guys will probably have a good laugh at this-it's quite funny...I could do with some advice though!<br /><br />Me and my girlfriend live in a house that we share with a bloke I met at work a few years back.<br />He's quite a pleasant chap at first but his Laurel and Hardy type unthinking and incompetent behaviour is getting a bit much now.It's not as if he even realises quite what a goon he is-and it's getting more and more dangerous to life and limb.<br /><br />To quote the major stuff in the past year:-<br /><br /> I've caught him washing the electric light switches with a bucket and pouring wet sponge. <br /><br />He's plugged the USB jack for the modem into my PC while it's been running with the firewall off and got my pc hacked.<br /><br />He's painted his mudguards from his m/cycle in his bedroom with hammerite-with all the doors and windows closed during the night. All of us were ill enough that we had to have time off work for it.<br /><br />This week I realise that he's put the scouring pad I used to clean the antifoul from the bottom of my boat in with the washing up-after removing it from the scuzzy bucket it was in out in the garden. He knows its poisonous-I've told him at least 3 times.<br /><br />He also keeps leaving the toilet door open while he's using it. My girlfriend has had a rather unpleasant sight greet her on many occasions now and wants to hit him.I really can't blame her now.<br /><br />NOTHING seems to get through to him.It's like talking to a zombie. I could understand if he was on drugs or something but he's not. All he does is sit around looking miserable and complaining about how long it's been since he had a girlfriend. He's just turned 50.<br /><br />This has been compounded by the fact that he started paying the bills without telling us. This includes bills in MY name-I don't even get to see them. It's got to the point where I now apparently owe him nearly £2000-but there's no proof bar a log he's kept on his PC of amounts-not what for etc etc.<br /><br />I've told him 3 times not to pay anything at ALL unless I give him the money 1st but he ignores it, takes bills and pays them before I even see them.(not all of them though-just enough that I haven't noticed when they don't come in)<br /><br />Unfortunately he's the only one here when the post arrives as both myself and my girlfriend leave for work before he does so there's no way we can stop him doing this.<br /><br />We've put up with him doing this for the past 2 years as we're saving to buy a house and his rent is helping quite substantially towards this.<br /><br />Now he's started asking for the money.<br /><br />I'm sorely tempted to throw him out and tell him to go swing for the cash as I never asked him to spend money for me.He appears to have deliberately engineered this situation as a means of carrying on living here but I doubt that he's got the intelligence to deliberately do this.<br /><br /> No-one else he knows will take him in.<br /><br />What do I do???!
