AIBU
My housemate is getting really stressy with me because I sent the notice letter on our flat without him. I know that sound bad at face value but there circumstances are:
-we had both agreed to a moving out date, he didn’t want to try and stay on
-I had already sent a text to our landlord saying we want to move out on that date
-landlord said that is fine and there is no need for written notice
-housemate knew all the above
-I wanted to send a letter to cover us to be on the safe side, I said we were both moving out but only signed it from me (which is enough to break a joint tenancy)
-had a limited window of time to get it there in time, due to bank holiday and only having a printer at work so sent it on my lunch break on the one day that would get it there in time
He has got very stressy with me, saying how could I think it wouldn’t be an issues, I shouldn’t have made a legal letter on his behalf (I haven’t thats how joint tenancies work), and saying it is ‘very weird’ and that it reflects some ‘weird thought process’ which I take issue with. I get that I probably should have told him I was doing it, but it was because I genuinely saw it as a very trivial thing, the notice had already really been given and accepted via text
- I am more wrong
- he is more wrong
