Also, him and his son should not be able to legally enter the apartment without your approval. However, I know you want to get out ASAP. So I think seeing if there is maybe someone who can help you out would be a great idea. Or possibly taking out a payday loan. I know they charge a lot in interest, but most don't check your credit. Last year I was able to take out a $600 loan and pay it back $110 a month for six months. And I'd rather pay 10% interest in a six month period than put myself, my family, or my things at risk. I wish I was working right now because I'd definitely wire you some money if I had it

Ahhh, you are a sweetie, but it is good (sort of?) that you are not working, because you should not be wiring money to strangers on the Intarnets. They might use it for crack or donuts or whatever it is the kids are into these days.

I am SO leery of the payday loan places, but if they let you spread it out over several months, that might be doable. Thank you for the suggestion - I will look into it, see what the places around here offer.

I know they are not legally allowed to enter like that, but they've done it before - these people are bad people, and while I would love to wave my arms around and pitch a fit at them right now, I need to get away from them first before I'd feel...safe...doing that. If that makes sense.

We did have a verbal agreement, though, you are right. I am not sure how I go about backing that up, but we did have one.
