[UPDATE] I'm [22F] at my breaking point with my difficult roommate [23F] over a moving-out mess.

Hi! I remembered my old post and figured I’d update since I love updates, especially juicy ones. Old post is here.
Re the moving out situation: I didn’t bring on a subletter, and let her live alone for a month. My plan had been to move to the city and live happily ever after. I was planning on moving into a shared house via a startup called Campus. Literally the day before I was supposed to move, they shuttered their operations. SO, I moved in with my parents because I did NOT want to go back to living with Holly. This worked out well for me financially. After a couple of months I found a new place in the city and moved in there - all was great. Holly renewed her lease with an acquaintance from college who was moving to our area.
I mentioned that Holly had issues with professionalism - well, Holly ended up getting fired from her job. I reached out to another agency in her industry I knew well, in the same field, to set her up with an interview (ugh, why) and she ended up getting the role. After she got it, I went for coffee with her to talk about it, which was the first time I’d seen her since the move.
She told me she wasn’t enjoying living with “Emma†because Emma would never invite her to things or be home as much as she originally said she would (shocker). In general, it sounded like Emma dealt with a lot of what I’d dealt with.
Then I brought up something funny, that I’d matched on Tinder with a guy who’d worked with Holly at the agency she’d been let go from. I had met him once at some company thing I’d gone to with her. She immediately asked me to message him and ask him what he thought of her. She told me she’d had the biggest crush on him the whoooole time she’d worked there and that he was The One for her. We left it at that, with her asking me to promise to message him. I said maybe.
Well, I did message him. And we went on a date. She texted me almost every day asking if I’d heard from him and when I finally responded and said we were going out, she became extremely upset. She asked me to make a choice between him or her. She said I was boyfriend stealing, and that I wasn’t a good friend. I wanted to tell her I WASN’T HER FRIEND. So I took her up on her ultimatum, and I chose him over her.
2.5 years later that guy and I live together and have the most gorgeous dog and life. We have a great friend group, great jobs, and our families are so close we’ve all spent Christmas and Thanksgiving together too. He’s so hot and cool. I'm 25 now and he's 29. Our dog is a 1 and a half Aussie!
I’ve never spoken to Holly again, but since my boyfriend is close to his old coworkers (don’t worry, he wasn’t fired) who keep up with Holly on social media, I’ve heard that she moved to L.A. and has cycled through FOUR more companies, each time getting fired. I don’t know much else about her life since she blocked me on every single form of social media INCLUDING VENMO. I’ve never met a person who knew her that didn’t think she was bat****, so that’s validation.
The End.

TL;DR: 10/10 would boyfriend steal again.
