Ann, I was doing some research on the web and came across this message. Have you received any help yet? Are you at a university? I would encourage you to go IMMEDIATELY to student services. You are correct, something IS wrong with him. This is very predictable behavior, and there are ways you can get out. It won't be easy, but can be in control here. Counseling services should be able to help you get out -- that is NOT to imply that you need counseling, just that they will be very aware and knowledgeable of the behavior that this person is exhibiting, and they will have dealt with it in the past. You need to be careful and you need to act fast. Is there any involvement still? Do you still have any contact with him? > CAN YOU HELP ME? I HAVE A ROOMATE, HE IS MALE AND NO SEX INVOLVED. WHEN WE FIRST MADE AGREEMENT TO STAY TOGETHER, I WAS TO PAY HALF. THE RENT. HE TRIED TO GET ME TO PAY THE TOTAL AMOUNT AND ASK FOR MONEY. I STOPPED IT. NOW HE CLAIMS HE IS IN LOVE. I AM NOT INTERESTED IN HIM. I TOLD HIM THIS. HE FOLLOWS ME EVERYWHERE AND TRIES TO CONTROL EVEVERYTHING. HE WON'T LET ME TALK TO OTHER PEOPLE. IN WOULD LIKE TO GET AWAY. IN HE MEANTIME, WHAT CAN I DO AND WHAT IS WRONG WITH HIM?
