The state allows the landlord to just disregard the monthly lease stated in the original lease? Seems like a total joke. Do you have a link to the law I could read? I do see from reading online that Indiana is landlord friendly because the laws have been virtually untouched since 1881. However, having an agreement and then being able to take a poop on it because they want to is totally absurd. You relied on the agreement.

The standard treatment by 90% of tenants in this situation is to trash the **** out of the place. Kicking people out of their homes usually ends up messy for the landlord.

have you talked to the landlord about your situation and he's still insisting?

don't know IN law but this probably is not disregarding the old lease or the law (though LLs are pretty awful at abusing tenants and their ignorance of the law).

the best solution to most legal problems is heading them off. offer to sign a 90 or 120 day lease or something in between the one month and one year. explain that you understand his needs and say that you appreciate his understanding yours through his help looking and whatnot. you want to give him a line in the sand but you need much less time than a year.

I did something like this. I haven't actually read Getting to Yes, but I've heard a summary of it, and I followed some of the classic advice. The key was getting to talk to the actual landlord rather than the property manager. Short story: I'm signing a lease through the end of July, at which point he'll let me sign either a 9mo or 12mo lease, both of which will allow sublets and will let me buy out for ~3mo rent. Not ideal from either my perspective or his, but we can both deal with it and not have it cause a huge financial crisis.

Seems like a decent compromise. Good luck in the house search, it's a bitch.

lol only saw this because it was quoted on the last page. No wtf I'm not a contrarian. I'm just someone that often goes to cities in Europe just for the weekend partying and Barcelona has been one of the worst cities despite throwing a ****load of money against it.

It's so called "famous" for the ramblas and tbh it looks and smells like a dump.

The only thing really nice is there is prostitution. At Camp Nou (the stadium of Barcelona fwiw) you can find hot ladies for 30 euro and you have to **** them there in front of the stadium under the stars in the bushes. Pretty unique.

Also if you'd have asked about Poland i'd have said it's the f bomb. Eastern Europe girls are easy and hot.

Barcelona is one of the best party cities in Europe. Who the **** do you hang out with

You are right about eastern European girls. But if that's the only place you've had success I now have a much better read on you.

yeah man + I even have to pay for it aswell! Sucks to be me. Anyway for the first time ever in my life I did a harddrug (except alcohol), MDMA. We had it tested in Holland and it came out 92% pure. Consolidated my doctor aswell and he said just make sure you drink enough water. Couple of my friends had done it before and we went to a party so I thought why not. I'm quite openminded when it comes to these things if you want to see what it is in a "controlled" environment.

It was pretty amazing. Got so cuddly with girls over there and my best mate and the lightshows / music were so much more intense. Was really cool.

@Cakewalk while I do agree that Barcelona has much to offer and I'm 100% sure I didn't get the proper experience I'm not sure when i'll go back there. I think there are better cities out there.

MDMA isn't a hard drug in my book...
05-05-2013 , 07:29 AM
Even though MDMA (in my understanding) is supposed to be basically pure E, I have much more 'pure' experiences on E and gotten ****ed up on the two occasions i've had molly. Maybe just ****ty batches?

Agree with sciolist, think anything Cocaine and under is pretty normal, though happy to concede that coke is a grey area.
05-05-2013 , 08:44 AM
Yeh, I'd count coke as hard but it's pretty normal to a lot of functional people so I agree it's debatable.
05-05-2013 , 09:27 AM
well as someone that used to drink way too much and rarely drink anymore for hte last 2 years and his only other experiences have been 3 times a little bit of weed (I can't even take air into my lungs from a joint) it was an awesome experience for me.

Also the way I felt it it isn't really a hard drug, but in my book it is and I'll only do it when all the variables are okay.

1. big group of friends that I 100% trust
2. stuff has to be tested.

It really isn't, problem is that it's frequently cut and mixed with stuff that is about as safe as rat poison.
