dead bird in the bathWhen I was at Uni I used to share a house with a girl who constantly tried to commit suicide. Pills, hanging from the light fittings etc. She never really meant it.
It was worrying at first but it's amazing how quickly my heart hardened.
One day I got up for an early lecture and went into the bathroom and the shower curtain was pulled round the bath, there were candles all over the place and a stereo on the floor. Behind the curtain was the girl in her swimming costume and asleep in a bathfull of water - not drowned. I drew back the curtain and went and had a fag in the kitchen.
Sometime later she berated me in a pub when I was with all of my mates for not being more concerned and I couldn't have cared less.
As the house was owned by the uni accomodation I got them to reimburse all of my deposit plus extra as I was in my final year and shouldn't have had to put up with this sort of shit.

that's funny...i love the way she put her swimming cossie on before jumping in the bath. like she didn't want to be found before she popped her clogs... of course she wanted to be found or she wouldn't be wearing the swimmers!

another bird's eggsNow that I come to think of it I have shared flats with horrible people.
One lad who was supposed to be my mate used to put eggs up his girlfriend's frou-frou and then put them back in the fridge.

i'm flat-hunting at the moment.and all the posts on this thread have really put me off.
but the alternative is to become the subject of a post (copies of the guardian flatshare under the door last week - subtle!).
i guess the search goes on.
here's a tricky one though... i've currently got two options: (1) with 3 mates in a decent flat with all mod cons including great porn; or (2) with excellently fit fashion bird in her own flat with all mod cons including remote possibility of maybe something more than 'just friendship'.
which one do i go for?

Hullo!GIRLS + BOYS DON'T MIX in a house.
If you move in with your girlfriend - you WILL regret it. Or you WILL split up. Whichever comes sooner.
