Hello Reddit, I made a second account to post this because my best friend fallows my main, but I need some outside opinions on this situation.

So in June my best friend Anna (22F) and her husband William (25M) signed a lease with my boyfriend (20f) and I (21F) I have lived in this city for 3 years and my boyfriend has lived here his whole life. Anna and Will moved here from two states away. My boyfriend and I already lived in this house when they moved here and we added them to our lease. Neither of them had jobs when they were added to the lease which was understandable because they only just moved here. We made an agreement that they could live here rent free for two months and then all bills would be split 50/50 between the couples. Well two months came and went and neither of them had jobs. Their car also broke down within the first month of living here so they were using my car for everything. After 4 months I told them they needed to start paying because I couldn’t support everyone on a bartender salary. They brushed me off and said the job market was bad and eventually they said they would ask their parents for money. From July-November I repeatedly asked them to pay rent and utilities and they continued brushing me off. They also got a dog about 3 months into living there. This upset me because the dog was not on our lease and it was consistently urinating on the carpet. At that point they essentially stopped talking to my boyfriend and I and would ignore our texts and not answer their bedroom door when they knocked. They were also incredibly dirty people and their room started to smell heavily of mold. When they weren’t home one day I went in their room to get some of my dishes and oh.. my god. It was actually the filthiest room I had ever seen. There’s a lot more stuff in between that they did, like breaking my stuff, taking my tip money off the counter, they used all of my laundry detergent, shampoo, dish soap etc. But I don’t have time to list out everything. Once November 1st hit and they hadn’t paid their rent I had a sit down conversation with them, told me that they owed me approximately $5,500 and if they weren’t able to start paying then they needed to look for a new place. The argument got very heated and ended in them saying they were on the lease and they weren’t leaving. That they would pay when they could and I was being a bitch. I ended up calling my property management and explaining everything. They essentially said we were all one entity and there was nothing they could do without evicting all of us and it would be close to $10,000 to break the lease. At this point my boyfriend and I were fed up and decided we were moving and we would let the eviction go through. We found a new apartment and signed a lease. The eviction notice came in December and we left it on their door and moved out. I understand this is partially my fault for letting them get on our lease with no jobs, but my best friend has always been very motivated and I did not think it would go this way.

Well fast forward to today and I’m blocked by both of them and keep getting harassed by her family saying I left them on the street and made them homeless and they I’m a selfish bitch etc. So was I too dramatic letting us get evicted? I had dozens of conversations with them asking them to pay and I drained all my savings trying to keep the house and there were honestly no signs of it changing.

I’d also like to note that William got 3 jobs and was fired from all of them within a week. So they were not unemployed the whole time but also could not keep a job.
