My ex moved out of our apartment we got together in dec. about 2 months ago... he gave no warning and led me to believe the whole time he was gone he would be coming back, he needed time to 'clear his head'
About 2 weeks ago my mother saw him out on a date with another girl and so that's that. We're 100% done. He did contribute a few hundred dollars to 'cover' rent and the cell phone line that I got for him that he ran up in my name that I continue to have to pay because there's a $250 fee that I can't afford to take his second line off my account... but my question is this; Does he have any legal obligation to have to pay half the rent for the remainder of the lease? His and my names are both on it. I am struggling to get by here, I wouldn't have moved in if I had any clue that he would sneek out that morning before work and never come back. I live in MA in case there's any experts out there and know this states laws. I plan on going to the courthouse and finding out what I can do about this. I would have gone already but he has been promising to pay me the money till the lease ran out, I stupidly gave him a million chances but he hasn't come through since he got caught with the girl. Do I get my landlord involved? I prefer not to, but I will do what I have to do.
If anyone has any information or even has been through this before please let me know.
