Sound fair?

Ok, im gonna kick my roomate out. He's been living with me since I bought this place almost a year ago. He needed the help, and I cant say I have any complaints, but lately, having my girl around all the time.. the hottub on the deck overlooking the rocks and beach. I'd kinda like to enjoy my place a little more and have a little privacy for me and my girl, you know what I mean?

So, im gonna give him three months notice, and tell him he has to be out. Sound fair? Would any of you be pissed? Especially since he's been one of the better roomates ive ever had. But, he's doing much better, has a good job, and can afford his own place.

I havent even hinted at it to him yet, so he's kinda gonna be shocked i think

shocked, probably. but i'd say 3 months is *extremely* fair warning.

are you 2 good friends (were you before you moved in together, or became friends)? or are you just roommates?

if he's just a roommate, then i would'nt worry so much -- the letter of the law (at least in most instances) is 30days notice unless otherwise stipulated in a contract/lease.

if he's a friend, then you'd assume he'll understand.

either way...3 months should be plenty of time.

nah, your not in college... roomate things are for pppl who dont wanna pay full rent, if u can. then he should... growing up sucks but it must be done

**needmorestrength** · 01-29-2006, 08:03 PM

well.. I would say that you and your girl want the privacy! time to start growing up etc

Ya, thats what im sayin' too. That shit dont fly in the real world.

He was a friend long before he moved in, but I think ive done enough for him.

If he doesnt like it, i'll label him an ungrateful **** and tell him to **** off. But I cant see him being mad about it. Guess we'll find out tomorrow.

3 months is a very fair waring he should understand,

**QuieTSToRM33** · 01-29-2006, 10:15 PM

with 3 months notice ...... he should have no reason to complain

**Evil Predator** · 01-31-2006, 08:21 PM

well, there was no problems

He told me he'll be out as soon as he can, I told him to take his time and find a nice place.

i then asked my girl to move in (her lease is up in 3 months). First time ever officially moving a gf in, im almost scared

**TADOLFI** · 01-31-2006, 08:36 PM

GF + your place = Good Times

Don't be scared - be up for anything!

**spencer** · 01-31-2006, 08:39 PM

i'd be pissd. remember mates last longer than g/friends imo

If he is a mature adult, there shouldn't be any problems whatsoever. You could give him 30 days legally if he decides to give you any shit.

I'm not saying he would give you any trouble. He shouldn't, like I said, if he is a mature adult then what's the big deal? Tell him you are ready for some privacy for you and your girlfriend, and you don't want him to just leave town - offer to help him look for a place too. It doesn't sound to me like you are just tossing him out; sounds like what the other bros here are saying... it's just a step in life.
