I have a roommate coming today from Oklahoma (I'm in Texas) and he's going to be moving in. However, by the time he gets here, I will be at a memorial service (last minute thing that came up) He was worried about the key. He suggested that an ex lover of his come and get the key from me and that he would get the key from him so that it would give him an opportunity to "work things out". I told him I didn't feel comfortable giving my apartment key to someone I didn't know, and that I'd rather leave the key here with my g/f who will give him the key in exchange for the rent money and write him out a receipt. He didn't like that idea and got all mad that I would deny him the opportunity to patch things up with his ex, using the key as a reason for them to get to talk to each other. I just didn't feel comfortable with the idea and he kept pushing and finally I was just like "look, I'M not the one looking for a place to live. Do you think you could be a little LESS demanding?"
