This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff

Living my best life
Today, my electricity went out. The electric company said it was because the bill was at least 4 months overdue. Apparently, I have been paying for my roommate to go out and party for weeks. FML

Everyone saying the OP deserves it for not looking at the bill or writing checks - my apartment has ONE key for mail and it's on MY keyring. I am the only one that checks the mail - if my roommate doesn't ask to see the bills, I don't see any reason to show her. I tell her how much it is and she gives me her half and I write a check to the company for the total. When she gives me her half, she writes me a check. In my name. This is how we do rent as well.

When i was 19 i was staying with my mom to help out with her bills so i gave her half the rent each month. Turns out she hadn't paid the rent in four months and we got exvicted.

*Shrugs* Why wouldn't you keep track of what the bill was each month? In the last house I lived in, all our bills were posted where everyone could see them so every one could verify their share of the bill.

I'd steal something from your roommate. They deserve it.

FYL for having a douche roommate. How big (deep?) your life is ****** depends on who's name is on the lease and if the roommate has any thing of value, savings or income that you can garnish to get your $$ back. Catch-22 situation; If you kick her out, you may never see her or your $$. If you let her stay, you have to support her until she pays you back.

first: Is your roommate going to physically beat you down for doing something back to him? If so, you're just a sucker for being in this situation. second: if you answered NO to the first question, you piss on him while he is sleeping. If he wakes (he will), you beat him down. third: you move out and be happy the bill wasn't in your name.

From now on right a check to the electric company in the amount of your portion. That way s/he can't go shopping with your cash and you know at least your portion gets paid. If I was your roommate I would take your money too. Sucks for you.
