    You said you went to the gardai.
    you expect us to believe you rang the gardai, told them some crazy man was trying to kill you and they did nothing.
    Did they go to your house.

    I wasn't thinking straight considering I just removed a knife that was probably meant to intimidate me or worse so I rang the landlord first since I'm in contact with him all the time, he came straight away, we got chatting to guy and then the 2 of us went to the Gardaì station.

    What did you expect them to do? if you called them at the time they would have seen him passed out.

    If I was that afraid and in fear for my life I would ring the Gardai .

    My favourite film.

    I think the op cannot handle the truth. I can't be doing with bull**** stories.

    Arrest him. That's a good start. And while I'm at - why are you interrogating this guy? Do you doubt the veracity of what he's saying?

    I wasn't betting on the Gardaì to arrive while he was still passed out since he was beginning to wake up more frequently and I took my chance to get the picture. He woke up to see me standing over him and I gave him a right bollicking, he tried passing it off that he was using the knife to open bottles (no bottles around him or in the house bar that cup of tea) and then he told the landlord he was using the knife to make sandwiches................outside my room.

    I didn't expect the Gardaì to do anything, I just wanted advice from them on what to do with him and they gave what they could.

    If the op called them they might have arrested him. The Gardai are getting blamed for not doing anything but he never called them.
    I doubt everyone.

    A cùnt tried to get into my room with a knife this morning and you call bullshìt? I'm here with the knife beside me after dealing with all this shìt today and you're there reading my story calling it fake?

    You're bullshìt detector is out of whack.

    I'm not blaming the Gardaì since I didn't go to them with the intention of having this guy arrested. I wanted advice, they gave it to me and I said they were being sound and helpful.

    Believe me, after 2 months of his shìt and standing over him it was tempting to do something. As shocked as I was at least I took the notion to take a picture and deal with it as best as I thought I could.

    I didn't know what I'd need with the picture but for something this serious I thought it would be needed, whatever the outcome.

    They did nothing. He went and complained that a psychopath with a knife was trying to kill him, he showed them a photo of the guy passed out with the knife. They did fúck all. The least they could've done was investigated a little bit.
    Why are you going out of your way to prove he's lying?

    Then count yourself lucky you've never been in this situation. I've nothing to prove to you.

    Others have been in this situation, you clearly haven't.

    Investigate what? If he was that much in fear for himself and his gf he would have phoned the Gardai at the time,
    is this not the logical thing to do?

    I don't need to prove he is lying, he needs to prove he is telling the truth.

    I'm fairly sure if he stayed passed out for a week they might show up just in time to see him on the floor with the knife. When people know the gardaí won't do anything and won't respond for what could be days, what's the point?

    I told the gf to pack whatever she needed and leave. She's not coming back here until everything is sorted; he leaves, all locks are changed, etc.

    You're the only one who doubts him. I'd rather give him the benefit of the doubt and sympathize than do what you're doing.

    I've been on this site reguraly for almost 6 years.

    What is your logic for me to start a bullshìt thread? I'm kind of going out of my way to answer people's questions just for the sake of a joke that only I'd find funny?

    Ah, now I see what you're at - "Eh, no love, of course I still want to be with you, it's just that, eh....there's this madman, yeh, that's it! A madman in the house! You, eh, have to leave and take your stuff and not come back! Seeya, bye bye! have to go, locks to change!".

    Very inventive, hats off to you.

    If you start a thread not everyone is going to agree with you.
    I doubt the story so what, is anyone going to lose sleep over it, doubt it.

    If ye are this sensitive god help ye.
