I have so much wrapped up in the place, I'd be going away empty-handed.
It would seem easy, but I have too much time and effort invested in my place to just dump it all and leave. I have offered to buy him out, or let him buy me out, but his refusal to do either is all part of the control thing he's got going. I guarantee, if he keeps pushing like he has been, at some point I will just pack up and jump. It's a scary proposition, though. I have so much wrapped up in the place, I'd be going away empty-handed.I can't imagine anything being so written in stone. Any partnership can be dissolved. No way in hell would I spend my life waiting to die living in an abusive, controlling partnership. I'd bail on that so fast it'd make the other person's head spin. I'd see an attorney and simply present the other person with papers, and move on with my life... in peace.Financial ties make that problematic. This is the flip side of not being "married". Owning property but not being able to persuade the asshole to let me buy him out..."How do you deal with this?"No further sign of my problem bear. Bears have been a big issue all over the area this year. They closed three National Park campgrounds this past week because of bear issues. Two days now and I have had no further bear incursions here but if the thing shows up it's freezer meat.
Right now, I'm feeling pretty tired and disgusted because my partner is suffering a severe case of butthurt and assholiness. I am so tired of being bullied into silence. There are more ways to bully a person than by physically abusing them. I've tried expressing this to my partner but he continues to use his passive-aggressive techniques to shut me up. It works, really does. How do you deal with this? I'm still trying to figure it out. Like a drug or alcohol abuser, he has to acknowledge the problem. Unfortunately, passive-aggressive abusers, even those who can acknowledge their problem, have an abysmal prognosis to solve the problem.
I know this answer is simplistic and probably something you'd never consider, but me, I'd just break up the partnership.
I now (belatedly) understand how a passive-aggressive controls others. I also recognize that I am no more than another "treasure" in a hoarder's hoard. He doesn't respect me, he doesn't even like me much, but that does not make him any more likely to "split the sheets". I regret not recognizing this sooner. Now, I'm waiting to either die before he does, or he'll die before me...hopefully the latter.
This sucks.
That's just me though... just my opinion.
Happy belated Birthday, pard. I turned 63 and bought myself a new hotrod...Tomorrow (July 6th) is my birthday. I will be 67 years old. My age and IQ will be the same number!
BTW, Happy Birthday to my old internet pal, 007. It’s his birthday too.
... 2017 but still new off the lot, 2SS Camaro. My mid life crisis car...Thing is brutal powerful, 6.2ltr, 455hp, six speed manual, only have about 650 miles on it so far... has more electronic goodies in it than the 2015 Chevy Silverado, LTZ, Z71 I traded in on it had...
I've had a couple other hotrods in my life, the last one being my 1970 AMC, AMX. I loved that car, even had dreams of driving it years after it was gone, so vivid I half expected to wake up and see it sitting in my driveway. And then, ya know, there were no hotrods for a long, long time. Horse power just disappeared. But they're making some awesome cars now, and I just had to have another one. It is a blast to drive.Nyyyiiiccee!Happy belated Birthday, pard. I turned 63 and bought myself a new hotrod...Tomorrow (July 6th) is my birthday. I will be 67 years old.

Just wandered in, and saw you here. And I'd heard this is the place where one is remotely pleasant?
Yeah? So? It's 2018.Speaking of cars, I had BMW's for years. Those days are gone now.
Then I heard the Goebbels family owns half of the company.

True. The bad Goebbel left this Earth in 1945. So I don't think you need to worry about who owns BMW now.
During my tenure as an insurance adjuster, I once worked a parking lot accident where a very elderly lady driving a brand new Cadillac Seville hit a brand new Mercedes and knocked that into a brand new BMW. (This was one of our high rent districts.) Nobody was hurt, but that was one expensive accident.

Did you hear about the upset concerning Allianz some years ago in Florida? This was the insurance company that the German Nazi government used during WW2 days.

That's the way I feel about my little 1995 Subaru Impreza Outback. Not as sexy as your Mustang or 007's car, but it is special. And it still runs like new and it still looks like this (though it does have a couple of scratches and dings of small importance):
