: : I'm a 22 yr old freshman and have recently started : : work as a web designer. I declare myself as an : : enforcer of truth and reality and in the past have : : shaken people¡¦s lives by giving them wakeup calls. My : : perception of people has almost never failed me, call : : it good but more like a gift that seems to work : : against me. : : Here it goes: : : I live in a house sharing with six other people, the : : landlady shares her room with another girl who has : : been causing a lot of stir in the house. I am fairly : : new there but as I have learned more about this : : ¡¥trouble female¡¦ I am increasingly getting sick of : : her behavior. I basically gave her the shaft from day : : one (not the sex shaft) but kept out of her way : : because just about everyday after work when I get home : : she starts flirting with me and it bugs the hell out : : of me. : : In the near future I intend to take action by : : discussing my feelings about her behavior towards me, : : this will be one to one and it shouldn¡¦t be a : : problem. : : She¡¦s a prime evil: the other housemates beside one : : guy don¡¦t like her. I¡¦ve heard her make conniving : : comments at others (especially the females and the : : couple) and basically my impression of her is: she¡¦s : : jealous, vindictive and pretentious. : : That isn¡¦t a problem for me, but yesterday we were : : going out to have a meeting over a coffee (everybody : : minus her) because the landlady was going to tell us : : about a recent argument she had with ¡¥prime evil¡¦, : : (forgive the unmerciful reference) . Anyway in the : : name of the lesser power did she ask what we were : : doing and ¡¥invited¡¦ herself to join us. One of the : : girls said: ¡¥of course¡¦. "²big load of BS : : So I sat there down and depressed the whole time and : : they wondered what was up with me. My dissapointment : : here is in my housemates not being open and telling : : her the truth. I have tried and will continue to : : endorse the ¡¥responsible and diplomatic¡¦ way of : : truth but their humble and reserved cultural values : : keep them back from self-disclosure and they go on : : taking shit from her¡K I have a genuine concern for : : the landlady and the others and I don¡¦t want them to : : face this agony any more. : : Besides setting an example (by me confronting her : : hideous flirtations towards me) , should I mention : : their issues or just stick to mine? : : I vow to protect the feint hearted so what would be : : the best way¡K to bring out this reality and make our : : household a better place? -while causing the least : : damage? And when is the time to cause damage if : : absolutely necessary? : Val, : I am 24 and just moved back to New Orleans from San Diego and I was browsing for a roomate before I unexpectedly came across this website. You are a very interesting writer. Your story made me laugh. I would like to know what happend to that roomate and how you all handled the situation. Please post another story or e-mail me. : Amy
