    If he's quite vindictive, you may want to put important documents and valuables somewhere safe for a short while.
    Please do not quote spam as this enables it to 'live on' once the spam post is removed. ;)

    If you quote me, don't forget the capital 'M'

    I'm pretty sure a partner cannot be a lodger...as you don't normally share a bed with your lodger.

    Your comment is hardly helpful! He works nights so technical no we rarely share a bed.


    However that makes no difference whatsoever.

    And your reply is both naive and completely wrong. Your boyfriend cannot be your lodger .... end of!

    The OP has a very detailed 'Lodger agreement'. I am sure it includes a comprehensive conjugal access clause :rotfl:

    Huh? I'm trying to help you...you are basing your decision making on a lodger agreement drawn up when he was your boyfriend. I'm pretty sure that is invalid. You don't go into battle with a broken sword.

    The advice given to utilise DV support etc. is very good.

    As you have allowed this to go on for 8 months it is probably to late to employ the my mates are bigger than yours approach.

    If you know the persons history you may know if they habitually continue the abuse/harass or move on to the next victim once kicked out properly.

    Right here goes:

    1: your lodgers agreement is worthless ( good and bad for you )
    2: assuming everything you say is true, it doesn't look good for you telling your partner they can't have friends over - that appears to be incredibly controlling.
    3: there's no notice requirement. Simply change the locks

    You don't evict a boyfriend, you simply ask him to leave/throw him out, no notice required.
    It may sometimes seem like I can't spell, I can, I just can't type
