Need serious help, I'm in trouble.....

Not sure, move on, words cant really do anything, I cant help you, you have to have some bottle, life is not cool but, go out your comfort zone, get the adrenaline going.

If he comes through your door make sure you are ready, I am no expert but saying "ello" Castiel style would not be cool.

Lets face it, if anything kicks off its you vs him, man up. Dont take advice off a 21 stone Castiel, dont become something you hate, just own him. Whats the worst that can happen.

Not 21st I'm afraid your information is as outdated and erroneous as your advice.

Besides, no one is saying don't defend yourself, just don't go looking for it. Cheets, you may be the next 'Chuck Norris' or at least think you are, but Lowrider may simply get beaten up regardless of whether he defends himself or not.
 
I think your best bet is to move out as others have said.

On saying that if I was staying somewhere even temporarily that I thought someone like him might break into to do me or my property harm I would have a weapon to hand. It may seem like a joke to some but anything from one of those fake swords a lot of people have (sharpened if you like) or a bow would do a lot to change someones mind about coming into your place pretty quickly.

England has quite decent self defence laws especially when in your own home. If he breaks into your bedroom or you believe he is there to hurt you then you can take any steps necessary to ensure your safety. That's where a bow and arrow comes in.

I'd actually recommend a bow and arrow over a sword as a sharpened sword is illegal but a bow and arrow is not.
 
If you know the guy does drugs maybe tell the police you here disturbing noises coming from his room.. woman's screams etc... Police go in find class A drugs, also mention to them he threw the knife. Bye bye scum bag.

Go to your Nans for a bit, claim JSA, get some other benefits for looking after her as well, find new job & a new place to live.

Out of interest what is it you do for a job lowrider?



Oh and shut the **** up Cheets and stop being a small minded ****.

However, having something to hand is not a bad idea, just not a sword or a bow and arrow (how would you nock and fire a bow in a bedsit?, practicalities people!)

Get a cheap cricket bat or something you can grab and use easily to threaten him with if he tries to break in and can explain easily why you have one if you injure the fool......and call the police, preferably before he finishes kicking the door in.
 
I was in a similar situation to this a few years ago, but we just shared a front door not a kitchen, so I know it must be worse for you.
This guy had pulled a knife out on one of the other neighbours and tried to set another ones curtains alight through the letterbox, he beat up his pregnant gf, but there was never another witness around at the time. And the police were useless, they tried to question him one time and he refused to open the front door and they just left :mad:. Every time I come home I would expect my front door to be kicked in. He was a self harmer and always carried a knife and whenever I pulled him up about his behaviour he would just say call the police. But I knew that would just get me stabbed or something.

The only option I had was to bide my time, save some money and move out. IMO these people never change because they live off confrontation and your best off getting as far away as possible from him. Staying at your nans or friends would be better than what your going through now. I moved out knowing that oneday the guy will either pick on the wrong person and get killed or end up in prison. And 3 years later its just a distant memory. I really hope things change for the better for you.
 
just done reading the thread, while I tend to hold the opinion of let the police and your landlord deal with him, I think you should prepare yourself or your room in the event he tries to harm you.
First thing I would do is look at the layout of your room, can this be rearranged in anyway to form a very effective barricade? eg door > small gap to squeeze through > large heavy furniture > large heavy furniture > wall.

secondly, if he does get into your room, is there anything you can use to defend yourself with?

and finally, without using your door, how easy is it to get out of your room or get into your room?
 
Without being rude it sounds like your life is not where you'd want to be. I'd see this entire nasty situation as a reason to totally reevaluate and make some changes.

It's not a good feeling to think you're being run out of your home, we all have pride, but it could possibly be the best thing for you. Mid 30s and stuck in a rut will quickly become mid 40s and so on. Make a change. Embrace it and think about improving your life, job, home etc.

I also wouldn't consider a straight confrontation. Those on here suggesting that do not know this guy and while he may be full of hot air, he also may not be.

Oh, genuine laugh out loud from the guy who seriously suggested a bow and arrow :)
 
I would move out tbh however if that's not an option.

You shouldn't feel threatened in your home. If you feel threatened by unpredictable people make it more predictable as others have advised set your room up to limit his movement and report him to the police.

I would seriously have something short with a good bit of weight I find rounders bats are really handy you can leave them down the side of your bed they are descrete and have a small swing radius. Could still be fatal but most likely would just hurt him. (roll of part used cling-film is a surprisingly good weapon too).


Oh and call the police at least get it documented incase you do have to use self defence.
 
Must be horrible feeling like this at your age. I'm sure we can all remember some sort of bullying back at school age, I know I had problems back then.

I would ask the landlord to move you immediately, tell him you have been a good tenant and so on, and that you have serious concerns about your safety. He is bound do have more houses elsewhere.
 
Got intrigued by this thread and read it all. I would have to agree with Castiel's advice. Like it or not, see it as an opportunity to sort your own life out. A change of scenery can do wonders, which by the sound of it, shouldn't be too hard as you don't have many commitments. Move to the other side of the UK or even another country (I've done it a few times myself), start working towards getting a job that pays better, get a house share without loony housemates and take it from there. Life is too short to be wasted like that, it can and should be enjoyed (easier said than done, I know, but there is always hope).
 
LoL cheets :D

First off, never take advice from cheets, the bloke has never had a fight in his life, hell, he's never left Wigan ffs.

In fact he goes as far as to make up stories on the internet about imaginary fights he's had down the gym with a paedophile that came onto his friend, they followed him outside and beat him up good yo!
