Roommate wants to kick me out

[Josh25841]

Hi I live in Texas and about 3 weeks ago I started roommating with a friend of mine that happened to be a girl and we started becoming romantically involved and sleeping together and all that. Now 3 weeks later she tells me that she doesnt want to be with me anymore and says she wants me out right now. I am not on the lease. She is the only one on the lease but we made verbal agreements and I was to pay half the rent which my share is 260 a month and I already have paid her for the first month. I have tons of things there including furniture and I have no place to go right away like this. I understand that she is the only one on the lease but I dont think it is her right to make me leave immediately. I think that I should have time to find another place to live like at least a month since I have made this place my home and I am living there with no place for me to go. Somene please tell me what my rights are and if there is any way I can stop her from forcing me out right away like this.

Thanks,
Josh

You must have really been crappy in the sack, Mack.

Get This

In TX, she is in violation of the lease for having an unautohrized occupant and CAN be evicted for that reason alone. Unfortunately, you have no rights as a resident and management can force you to leave immediately. Verbal contracts are a myth, and even if you had an agreement with her, the TAA Lease Contract overrides all else.

Get out of there as fast as you can before you get both of you in trouble!

I deleted my posts...the TAA lease thingey has me confused. I thought a lease was enforceable as long as it didn't violate TX law and verbal agreements were legal but difficult to prove. What does the TAA lease have to do with Josh's question?

Ask her if she wants to have some pizza and sex, and if she gets mad simply ask: "what, you don't like pizza?"
