Couple Splits Up But Stay Roommates Through The Lease, Until He Then Invites A New Girlfriend To Move In

Life often throws us into situations we’d rather avoid, especially when they’re as uncomfortable and awkward as sharing a living space with someone. Whether it’s a friend, partner, or just a roommate, cohabiting can lead to a variety of tricky scenarios. These can arise both during the time spent living together and in the often-difficult process of moving out.

This particular story from Reddit highlights such an experience. The couple in question, who had called off their engagement and broken up, made an unusual decision: they chose to continue living together until their lease expired, which was about 10 months away. They managed this arrangement longer than one might expect.

However, seven months into this period, the ex-boyfriend decided to invite his new girlfriend to move in with them. The original poster (OP) was not thrilled with this development. When she voiced her concerns, her ex simply suggested she should move out. And that’s exactly what she did, taking an unexpected turn in an already complex living situation.
