My girlfriend owns a house that her Dad bought her who we both live in.

While there's no written tenancy agreement, I pay 50% of the mortgage and bills.

She has a couple of mental health problems which causes her to lash out at me at times. Now I've told her I'm going to break up with her and I'll be out when the next lot of bills are due (2 weeks).

But now she's saying she wants me gone and out the house tonight, which can't happen because I don't have anywhere to go and I know I won't get any stuff back that I leave at hers. She has said she'll call the police if I'm not gone by the time she's home in a few hours.

She seems to think she can do this, because it's her house and because there's no written tenancy agreement I have no rights. I'm pretty confident otherwise, that we have an enforcable unwritten bilateral contract, and because I am paying her money I have a right to be here and if she wishes to revoke my tenancy she needs to give reasonable notice.

I've already trapped her into admitting that I've never been violent or threatening towards her and I've recorded it, so she can't pull that one on me.

I don't want to give her any hassle, I just want nothing to do with her, but I need time to make arrangements before I leave.

If, when she does get home, the police do get called. Where do I stand?
