I'm moving into a new house on Labor Day. It's got two bedrooms and one bathroom. My roommate, who happens to be my best friend, is very irresponsible. Especially with her money. She recently got a credit card and hit the maximum a week and a half later. She bought useless things. Storage bins, a marker board, an invader zim blanket, etc. Last week, she promised me she would help me paint the new house on her only day off from work. She never showed up because she was with her boyfriend, so i did it myself. She then promised me she'd help Sunday (yesterday)..but she didn't. Now, she wants her boyfriend to move in with us. He said he'd pay half the rent..which is fine. But when you pay for a house, you pay for the comfort of your home and the ability to relax. What do I do? I'm afraid if I say he can't move in, she won't move in, meaning i'll be paying rent by myself. I live in a remote location, so roommates aren't exactly easy to find. And what do I do about the roommate who isn't dependable? I've talked to her about it, but she just makes promises that she can't keep, although she swears that she'll have the rent on the first of the month, every month, no exceptions. We move in in a week...what do I do? *Not allowing her to move in is NOT an option at this point.*
Thank you!
