Last Year [LONG VERSION]
LONG VERSION

Things were going okay; I lived with three other guys (ideally I'd wanted a mixed house but you don't always get what you want), and despite some differences of character there was not too much animosity, even four months in. How that was to change.

I informed my housemates my friend from the USA would be staying. I was then told that "there's no real need to tell us", obvious, since anyone who lives in a shared house kind of *expects* some company at some point, right? Ah, but I forgot to tell one of the blokes who lived upstairs, he just wasn't in the kitchen at the time, and since the others said not to worry about it, I didn't. Anyway he did the same course as another housemate and I figured the info would trickle down to him.

Come my friend's arrival, I had a new girl on the horizon, so I invited her round too (not for some dodgy threesome but so we could all go to a friend's party) - of course I said she could stay. So we're in the kitchen, all three of us, playing some cards, making food before going out, and two of my housemates, A and B, arrive. They settle in and soon we're all having fun. Housemate C (for CUNT), the one I forgot to inform, stayed upstairs. I thought nothing of it, maybe he's just feeling a bit off today, eh.

The next day, post-party, the three of us spent a long time in the kitchen: it was warm, there was food, A and B didn't seem to mind, and I just thought C was either weird by now, or ill ... oh well. When my friends finally left, C emerged. There were no words spoken. For a week. Finally I broke the ice and said I thought we needed to talk. He agreed, and angrily told me (a couple of nights later, because we didn't see each other a while) that "I knew what the problem was". I didn't. After a HUGE argument, in which he tried to make out that A and B were on his side (they weren't and his argument floundered), the problem emerged - he doesn't like meeting new people and because I hadn't told him of the last minute change of plan to invite new-girl-on-the-horizon he felt threatened and I should have mentioned it before. WHAT THE FUCK? So I'm not allowed to invite people round on a whim now? Or without consulting your majesty? Fuck off. I didn't know he had this problem, he never mentioned it before, the twat.

After that incident his best buddy housemate B teamed up with him and together like the little bitches they are (seriously are just awful when they are together, the amount of bitching and sniding they do) went out of their way to be nasty, in increasingly petty ways (you know the deal, not talking to me, leaving notes, talking loudly in the kitchen where they know I can hear them through the wall, etc).

Still, I don't live there any more, so fuck 'em.

hmmmm....
sound slike he has some form of spackism... your house does sound like the party house though. Jeeze, why aren't students trying to make crack anymore - unless that's what you were infering with cooking and good food, in which case I'll let you off.

yeah
he came right out and said it was his neurosis and nothing i could do to change it, but by then he'd already been such a twat i didnt feel the need to bend to his whim. seriously, university, housesharing, grow the fuck up.

haha, no by cooking and good food i really mean just that. i dont need drugs or to be in a "party house", i jump out of planes for kicks. as for my other housemates, well if they didnt have a life, i sure as hell wasn't going to find one for them ;)

It's true, you don't always get what you want
But you try, sometimes (you just might find) you get what you need.
