    Exclamation He Doesn't Live Here, His Stuff Does

    My question involves a roommate in the State of: IL

    The facts
    -our friendship became rocky and we just tolerated each other
    -he wanted to move out months before the lease ends
    -since I did not want to get a new roommate, he said he'd for his share of the rent til the lease ends, even though he'd be living elsewhere
    -So even though he doesn't live here, he is paying and is still on the lease.
    -It's been 3 weeks since he moved 95% of his stuff out. It's been about that long since I last saw him.
    -He's got random junk in the apt, nothing of monetary value.He said he would come back to get his things, but he's really just trying to piss me off.

    Here's the deal
    I feel uncomfortable and concerned cus he's still got the key to the apartment. He can easily come in the middle of the night just to irritate and scare me. He hasn't, but he likes to be passive-aggressive and play mind games. So I guess it's working. And I don't like that he has access to my stuff. He really has no reason to be here.

    Can I give him a time frame to get his stuff out? Can I have the locks changed and trash his stuff if he doesn't listen? Or do I have to just suck it up and tolerate this?

    Try telling him that if he moves out the rest of his stuff, you'll pay 100% of the rent from that day forward. As it stands, he's paying his rent so it's his place as much as it is yours.
