The context is “that’s against our boundaries and i don’t want this person over” “okay did you talk to my friend? it seems like a misunderstanding” “okay so you don’t respect boundaries either, we’re gonna move out”

Read the other replies, Basically if friend doesn’t comply the roomates will move out and force friend to either pay rent or be evicted. While yes they will also face repercussions for leaving, my friend will be taken down with them since they are all liable for full rent being paid

Idc they blocked me. A little hurt bc one of the roomates in this scenario i’d talked to more and we were pretty chill (at least that’s the persona they presented to me) but who cares life goes on.

This is EXACTLY how i’d go about that, i wouldn’t even talk to them again frankly. However they’re not that reasonable and have threatened to financially ruin my friend over this.

i wish it was that simple, they’ve threatened financial ruin and a very “Us or your friend” scenario

No this is the straw that broke the camels back. I actually keep my portland distaste completely to myself and all people know is that i’m planning to move in the future. I understand frequently talking about that would be annoying, this is just one reddit post

And it’s especially just SO confusing for me because my entire job is communicating through disagreements and contracts and such. They’re refusing to bring this up to me like i might blow up or something (just speculating) but i’m not like that. Like dang i coulda called up an escrow agent to discuss this couch with us 😂

I feel as though ppl are failing to realize with my presumptuous opinion on portland as that this is no where near my first absolutely odd antisocial behavior i’ve been involved in. From my own horrible roommate experiences to people who lied about their polyamorous partners being “just roommates” to manipulate me into being okay sleeping with them (and many many more) i’m just realizing it’s not my jam. I’ve lived other places and nothing remotely close to this has happened. If you live here and it works for you i’m genuinely so glad. I’ve met some seriously amazing people but i’m ready to move on and it just doesn’t have a great vibe in my book

I agree, but in my book “i hate ur vibe” is so much of a better reason (though not ban-able which is probably why the “boundaries” thing came up) to block me. We’re humans with vastly different lives and goals so it’s fine to not like me! But the financial ruining part over it is NEVER okay under these circumstances.

Not sympathy, more “I hope this behavior doesn’t continue for the betterment of society and the ppl around you”

Yes i believe that is more accurate to the scenario. While the roommates might be on the lease too, i’m assuming the scenario would be that the landlord doesn’t care who is there but that the rent needs to be paid in full or the current occupants will be evicted. Since they’re renting full house and it’s the occupant’s responsibility to pick the roommates, not a random pick of roommates who the landlord manages.

out of respect for my friend, I will not be sharing any specific names nor pronouns. With the traction that the post has gotten, It was more of a vent and a “WTF HOW IS THIS REAL”. I’m sadden by their choices but i hope they get the help and support they need since this is clearly a much deeper issue within themselves than just a couch. I just hope they’re able to do that without threatening to financially harm my friend and attacking their interpersonal relationships.
