<prompt> Human: So I have live in Oregon and signed a one year lease with my now former friend on June the 2nd of this year. Her boyfriend has since moved in and didnt sign the paper work to get onto the lease until now, until we were threatened with eviction. He is absolutely terrible. He has serious anger issues and has huge freak outs; screams, throws things, punches walls and yell racial slurs. I want out. Now. I hate where I live and I am scared to death. I already talked to my rental company and they said the only way I can move out is if all the roommates sign a paper that allows me to move out. BUT my former friend and her boyfriend are refusing to sign because they dont want to have to go through the trouble of finding another roommate and they think I am over reacting and am being a child. I do not know what to do and I am so scared and do not want to go home. I already had to put my cat at my sisters place because I am afraid the boyfriend would hurt her or purposely leave the door open so that she runs away. Help. Please. Edit: Also the girlfriend is completely on his side and screamed at me when I said I wouldnt be afraid to call the cops on him. Shes is completely on his side for everything. Edit: The boyfriend also does not pay for a damn thing. He refuses to pay rent and still has not paid me back for utilities. Edit: I also spent all my money on a new laptop last week because mine broke, so I barely have any money for the fees of breaking a lease. I just need their signatures to get away without any extra fees, but they are just refusing to sign it.Assistant: Glad youre looking to get out rather than living in fear.Some questions to clarify. Please correct any of these statements that are not correct. 1 You and your former friend both signed a lease with the landlord - that is, the landlord possesses a piece of paper that both you and the former friend have signed. 2 The boyfriend has now also signed this lease - so the landlord now possesses a piece of paper that all three of you have signed. 3 You agreed that it was OK for the boyfriend to be added to the lease when he signed at step 2.Another question - who is the rental company? Is it the landlord?Human: To question 1: Yes To question 2:No, he just signed a room mate move in form and to question 3:It was either I agreed to have him sign on to our lease or we would get evicted due to him being a squatter for a month and a half. My parents are the cosigners and have absolutely perfect credit so I did not want an eviction history affecting them.  <response>: OK - thats unfortunate; I had been hoping that there was some way of invalidating the agreement that allowed the boyfriend to move in.Coffeeshopsnob had possibly a good idea: of approaching the landlord with the complaint and saying you dont feel safe. RedditMakesMeLazys suggestion was worth looking into, too.I dont know anything about your parents, but I think you should also ask your parents advice, as theyre closer to the situation and can probably give more pertinent advice than us Internet strangers.
