I am tired of my roommates. offmychest

I moved in with four other people. One is my boyfriend, one is a friend from middle school and his girlfriend, and the girlfriend's brother.

Everything was fine for the first three months, and then the girlfriend got controlling. Our television was in the living room, we didn't want to be hermits. The girlfriend got mad and said it would be best if we moved our television to the bedroom again so the living room could be a common area for everyone. Fine. Guess what's not used now? The living room! After that, things got uncomfortable. I knocked on their bedroom door, asked to talk, she said no, she wouldn't even listen. My friend said he would speak to me, she said he's man enough to make his own decisions, but demanded he go back into the room. She shouted at him to pick a side, "me, your girlfriend, or her." I have nothing against that, but he said he would speak to me. She slammed the room door after he went back in there, and started hitting him. My boyfriend and I left, because I got uncomfortable and said we would call the cops because that's domestic abuse or whatever.

I apologized to my friend after that, he said it was fine. Her brother said she needed time to cool down. From what? Who knows. I haven't spoken to them since then, which was probably around May, now that I think about it. Her brother said she wants an apology, I told him that would be fine, if we got one in return and she told us what we would be apologizing for.

I can't do this anymore. My boyfriend and I can't afford to break our lease, or even start a new lease somewhere else at the moment. He's stressed out with work, since it's the holiday season, and this whole ordeal just adds another stressful thing to his plate. I'm just sitting here, in my bedroom because it's the only safe place, crying. I really don't care if we're not friends anymore, I know countless of people are roommates either strangers, but at least they're civil to one another. The girl just takes things and puts them in her bedroom, her boyfriend doesn't stand up to her, which is why she shouts at him, and of course her brother session nothing wrong with that she does. She said my boyfriend and I glare at her. I've seen her five times since May. If we get home at the same time, she waits in her car until we're already inside. No one tells her to do that. Their food collects in the refrigerator for MONTHS, and then she gets upset if it gets thrown away, despite the fact that she hasn't touched it since she put it away. There's moldy bread in the pantry, frozen garlic bread that's been there for months, and old takeaway because they don't cook.

I'm sorry if this is all jumbled around, I just can't think straight anymore.
