    Are we to guess here that you're renting one room in a multi-room property, with common areas shared by you with the other tenants?

    Yes, that is correct.

    I'm very scared to go into our living room and kitchen area. When I go home I stay inside my room.

    Are you in actual fear of physical harm? Have you called the police to report their threats?

    Yes, I am. Honestly, I'm scared there will be retaliation.
    Am I able to send you a private message?

    Thank you!


    The threat that concerns us the most and really scared us both was the following:

    The new roommate and her boyfriend, who we still didn't know their names, loudly arrived back to the apartment about 3:30 am and continued making noise and using appliances like the washer and dryer. Both roommate A and myself came out our rooms asking them to be quiet due to we had to get up early for class. I also asked the boyfriend not to touch my laundry again because those are personal items. The boyfriend said you just messed with the wrong Mother F***ing six foot four 260 pound black boyfriend.
    I don't know this person and I'm not sure what he's capable of.

    If you feel threatened or have an altercation that might lead to violence, call the police on the spot.

    I am worried about retaliation. If it was that easy I would of done that. I want to break my lease and move away from there. Were you able to read the message I sent you? It was more in detail to all.

    It sounds like bluster. You know what he did -- which is he said those words, and then nothing more of consequence happened.

    If you choose to do nothing, then nothing will change.
