Attack of the Pissy Roomate

Ok, so some of you know about my pissy roomate and how he goes off the handle for nothing. Things have been tense for a while, but not too bad overall.

Well, he came back after being gone for the weekend and he has a major stick up his ass. My fiancee had put his initials on the bananas he bought because three out of 4 of us had bananas. Well, this roomate went and carved his initials out of the bananas and now they're turning already.

He's been pissy all day and I don't know what the hell his problem is. If you ask what's wrong, he says nothing. But I talked to Mom and she's concerned because it's gone from being pissed off and yelling to actually doing things to our stuff when we aren't around.

She suggested my fiancee and I go to the office and see if we can lease another apartment, but I don't know. Is that too drastic? What do you all think? Dump the ass wipe, or put up with it until the lease is done and then book it out of here?
 
I don't mean to make light of your situation but... are you kidding? Your obligation to your roommate to stay until the end of the lease, in my opinion, ended the moment he started being shithead. I'd go to the manager right now and tell them that you're roommate has gone psycho and you would like a different apartment.

If things escalate to the point where the apartment is being damaged or other tenants are being disturbed the manager is not going to care about listening to any he said she said, they will more than likely kick all of you out leaving you looking for a new place without a reference.

I say fuck that guy and kudos to your fiance for not kicking his ass thus stirring up more trouble cause I imagine he wants to.
 
This guy sounds like he can be a major problem. I wouldn't be surprised if his shananegans continue and get worse depending on how bad his pms is that day. He could be getting depressed or he could just be feeling claustrophoc and and has become an asshole as a side effect.

My best advice is to get out of there. You are not responcible for this guy being a dildo. You need to take care of yourself and your fiancee. He is sabotaging this partnershiphe had with you for whatever reasons. Even if it's depression that he has, it's time to get out and let him get help on his own.

Good luck! I hope whatever you choose to do works the best. I'd suggest doing what your mother suggests, but it really is up to you.
 
Thanks. I just didn't know cuz it sounds kind of petty, I want to move because he hurt my bananas.

Anyway, can you believe he teaches sunday school? I certainly can't.
 
Teaches Sunday school how to be an asshole. Yeah, I can believe it. And you're right, I can't believe I missed the big picture of your post... fuck anyone who takes malicious action against bananas. Besides, your getting married, it's time to start a new life in a new place just you and your man.
 
Did you ever try sitting him down and talking to him like we suggested before? I agree it might be time for you to move on, but not necessarily if you haven't really tried to rectify the situation beyond "Is something wrong", he could be being a douche and not realizing it, maybe he's going through something right now. I'd talk to him first, sit him down, be like "Look, you've been an ass, I want to know why" and be up front that you're thinking of moving out. You also have to realize that he CAN sue you, for breach of contract if you move out, unless the landlord agrees to take you off of the lease, which he probably WILL NOT do. I've gone through similar roommate situations before. Communication is your best friend right now, because it seems to be what's lacking the most. If he's just as unhappy with the situation, maybe he'll agree to you breaking your lease, then no harm no foul.
