Rough Roommating

The plaintiff says he and the defendant shared an apartment, but his roommate ended up being a crazy slob who fought with him nonstop. He moved out and is suing for outstanding rent and damaged belongings. The defendant claims the plaintiff is a creepy guy who oiled his feet in the living room and even signed them up for a cult. He says the plaintiff moved out, so he owes him nothing.

I went to a landmark forum event. I was pressured into it. It was the most culty thing I've ever experienced to this day. They wouldn't even let you disconnect the chairs from each other. They invited people up on the stage, shouted at them to bring them to tears and then laid out their cult as the answer. It was horrifying. 'no means no' doesn't compute with these people.

[@lolalopez7657]

I was pressured into going too. It was crazy. People would get on stage and tell a horrific story like they were raped as a child and then be coached into thinking that a truly traumatic event was not bad or good. It was an experience. It just was an experience in your life that you accept without adding meaning to it. For three days people were brainwashed and smiling like they just won the lottery, meanwhile they talked about these horrible things that happened to them. It was sad to see people who were truly scarred and victims, be exploited and victimized again, for the sake of this pyramid scheme. Many of these people really needed help.

Plaintiff is seeking...sadly, seekers are quite often the most gullible therefore highly vulnerable, where cults are concerned; Landmark Forum most definitely is a cult, the rebranded version of EST. "Werner Erhard" slid off the grid in the early '80's for tax reasons. During the time I lived in Laguna Beach ('84-96) I knew several individuals who went through EST deprogramming...they admitted they weren't quite the same after delving into the whole EST paradigm but the deprogramming helped. Their families were shattered by the whole experience as EST fought hard to keep those poor folks entrenched, much like scientology. 💔

my observations: plaintiff definitely wanted to be boyfriends with the defendant. He clearly believes in this therapy system a bit too much. The plaintiff acts like he's used to his being clingy working out for him and this is why he has this odd behavior. Nobody has raised him to understand no means no, or about boundaries. Defendant was not being odd or anything and I have no idea why Judge got irritated. he was being calm and polite the whole time, he was just clearly uncomfortable being there. The plaintiff appears to make the defendant uncofortable just by being near, which makes me thing there were a lot more odd things he did. I think he's right on the therapy thing being a cult, the kind to milk you out of money. No therapy I have heard of charges you a huge amount up front like that. I get wanting to move the plaintiffs things out immediately. I am sad that it was wrong on his part, because he needed it gone to get rid of the daily reminders of the plaintiff and his behavior it was necessary for getting over the situation and moving on

[@Gekkotor]

Honestly I think the judge just puts pressure on someone because they are more likely to slip up if they are lying, and personally whilst I do agree that the plaintiff was a creep, the defendant should probably have waited the 30 days before throwing his stuff out. Whilst it might not seem fair to us regular folks, its probably the most balanced view the judge could have given by law.

I am a landmark graduate. I loved the experience but it’s not for everyone.

[@Indygrandma56]

Ok what’s up with the plaintiffs hair😳😳😂

[@johneisleytiu5110]

I want the defendant to wife me up

Landmark was Forum. Forum was EST.

I think the plantiff means well but is to clingy for some personalities. I would actually love him as a friend. He has a huge heart.

I agree, but what you say about the plaintiff being clingy is especially problematic in the context of NYC roommates! I wonder if the plaintiff is a small town boy who was looking for human connection w/ his roomie…b/c most people in NYC know not to get too involved with your roommates if you want the arrangement to be peaceful and long-lasting.

It's so obnoxious to sign someone else up for a self-help program, ESPECIALLY after they've declined it multiple times.

Why does an issue have to be a confrontation? Why not just have a conversation? My goodness.
