I’m a minimalist, and all his stuff drives me crazy.
-- FEELING CONTROLLED IN COLORADOThis man moved in when you were a couple. The circumstances have changed radically. You allowed it to continue because it suited both of you. Because it no longer does, tell him you want him out of there because your relationship “is no longer working.” Then set a date for it to happen. This scenario won’t repeat itself if you set boundaries and assert them when they are encroached upon.
P.S. If your renter is not cooperative, you may have to enlist the services of an attorney to get him out of there, so be prepared.My sophomore year of high school has been filled with family members passing away unexpectedly and beloved pets as well. The cat we raised got sick. He couldn’t breathe and got incredibly skinny. Despite my pleading to take him to the vet, my parents insisted he was already too far gone.
An older cat we had also became very ill. My parents refused to take her to the vet either. Now another one is getting sick and, despite my pleading, they still refuse. They say, “Some cats just get sick like that,” or “Vets can’t always help.” My parents’ refusal to get them help has me confused, angry and disgusted. I get that vet visits are expensive, but surely a few bills are better than letting a furry companion die. How can I tell my parents how angry I am at them for doing nothing, especially since we don’t know if the last two deaths were preventable?Because of advances in medicine, veterinary expenses are higher than they’ve ever been.
