Had this issue too. Me and a friend moved in together seventeen years ago and we did pretty well for another month. Then he let thsi guy (an eighteen year old from Grosse Pointe) live with us. No sooner than he moved in that my socks started turning up missing, groceries started getting eaten up (we all paid for our own stuff and I wasn't making a ton of money). I came home tired and ornery after a long day at work and smelled cheap perfume in my bed. I knew that my legitimate roomate was at work, and the other guy didn't have a job (and didn't help with the rent, chores or anything else). It didn't help that there was a used condom under the bed. I confronted the guy about it and ended up throwing him out of the the apartment. As a result of his living there, we all ended up getting evicted. Rommates need to be screened. This guy had a warrant for his arrest for failure to appear in court over a skateboard violation. It was a clear sign that this guy at laeast was going to have a poor attitude toward other people.
