my housemate held a dinner party for her birthday
her parents are minted so she had it in the dinning room of their house in buckinhamshire

i travelled down with her on friday night and after only 4 hours of sleep in a drafty room on a lumpy bed i spent 10 hours cooking a three course meal for 18 people with her mother (while she did the clearing up and peeling of potatoes)

i remained sober only drinking one vodka and tonic and one glass of wine because she had asked me not to be too blunt to her friends (i generally say what i think and dont believe in soft soaping opinion when asked) and i wanted to not get pissed and be rude to them

at 5am everyone bar 4 (housemate, trampy posh blond girl, loud lawyer, and the oaf) went to bed, i was lying upstairs in a house that when her parents built it they forgot to install internal sound proofing and could hear perfectly clearly that trampy posh bird was telling the boys that her boobs weighed 1.2 kg

by this time i am a bit grumpy so i pop downstairs and let them know that everyone can here exactly what they say hoping they might move to the living room where it is carpeted etc
i stop for a bit of a chat (can hear everything upstairs might as well join in

the oaf (who has been groping me all evening, so much so that at one point i had to ask for assistance to get him off me) grabs at me again (and at this point i am in my pjs)
so i tell him to bloody well leave me alone
he responds by saying 'i do believe she thinks i am hitting on her'
so i said 'no i dont, i have been watching you groping at her (pointing at blonde) for the last ten minutes'
he looks aghast that i am not enjoying his wandering hands and that anyone might be offended by it

yesterday on the way home housemate told me how angry she was that i came downstairs and told them to be quiet and that i was rude to her friend

after spending the night not getting any sleep in a strange house, spending all day slaving away over the cooker (she is a terrible cook), and then staying sober to be charming to some pretty awful people all night i dont think it unreasonable to expect a girl who you know is often blunt to the point of offence to give in to being grumpy at 5am the following day

NEWSBOT3 · 27 Sep 2004, 13:02

me either.

meglamaniac · 27 Sep 2004, 13:08

sounds fair enough to me.

sack her off, she sounds high maintenance.

Aryn · 27 Sep 2004, 13:08

some people are just clueless :\
don't invite her to your birthday

IncubusGod · 27 Sep 2004, 13:44

Sleep with her boyfriend. That'll teach her.

Anyway, yeah clearly pain in the arse toffs should not be tolerated. Put her in her place, and if you won't sleep with her boyfriend as a means of revenge, then you should at least sleep with me.
I'm not sure if it'll help but it could hardly hurt......much.

Ok, never mind etc.

Put her in her place! We demand it!

Knight Theamion · 27 Sep 2004, 13:47

women in general are not right to be angry :\

why did you go there in the first place tho?

madi · 27 Sep 2004, 14:13

i went because i was invited

i spent the day cooking instead of reading the paper watching her mother do everything because i am generally quite a nice person
i stayed sober and was charming to her friends because i didnt want to be the stranger at her party that everyone thought was horrible and spoil it for her (personally i dont really mind what people i dont care about think of me)

i got grumpy at 5 am because i only managed a couple of house sleep the night before combined with the above
and am angry because she is pissed off at my bad behavior

JonnyBGood · 27 Sep 2004, 14:17

You should have gotten uproariously drunk. At least then you can blame the alcohol and have called her shit friends shit.

JammyJim · 27 Sep 2004, 14:35

do you have pictures of the blondes breasts?

i cant imagine what 1.2kg breasts look like so i need visual aid.

please reply soon...

Rumad · 27 Sep 2004, 16:43

you have ever righ tto be peaved.

To be honest your flat mate sounds like she has taken what you did for granted. Is she like that in the accomodation sharing arrangement?

I would say your better ff rid of her.

Sunday8pm · 27 Sep 2004, 18:02

I'm not surprised she has shit friends imo.

Leshy · 27 Sep 2004, 18:09

Sounds like she's taking advantage of you.

Dump the bitch and tell her to come see me.

Sardaukar · 27 Sep 2004, 18:28

madi

your right hun, it could have been worse, they could have been from portsmouth :P

Leshy · 27 Sep 2004, 18:36

Whoa, sweet jesus, Fedaykin!

Hi

Get new friends. Your hoity toity stuck up cow of a "Friend" is worth nothing more than being grabbed , bundled into a van , blindfolded, gagged , and driven to a small african country where she can serve in the harem of a vindictive, sex obsessed , 30 stone dictator.

Or given to Dace for 24 hours. Whichever you prefer.

Androme · 27 Sep 2004, 19:00

Stick a cactus up her or something equally sharp

i'd take the harem anyday over 24 hours with Dace :eek:

If that's the main reason you went, I think this is where your problems started.

You have shit housemates

Achilles · 28 Sep 2004, 05:29

Now I'm not English, but I thought it was the right of the aristocratic (read: people who are better than you*) to vent their understandable frustration at being let down by the help?

Or is this the place on the internet where the proletariot (new word for today - thank you Reader's Digest) of the English caste system vent their misbegotten woes?

*I had originally used the word 'us' here. However it seemed to imply a sense of kinship which I felt was false. I didn't spend much time considering whether or not this means I actually think I'm better than you or I'm simply lacking the gene which allows me to sympathise with the obviously wronged.

Sunday8pm · 28 Sep 2004, 08:25

I still don't think Madi has told us everythign she got upto on this.

The search is still on to find someone worse than the English aristocracy. It's been going a few hundred years with no results so far.

Yet again Reader's Digest can be blamed for the dissemination of lies and errors.

have decided its my own fault for experimenting with being sociable
i dislike being trapped in other peoples houses and i dislike most people
i dont like being expected to behave in a certain way or being restricted on what i say and how i say it
she knows this
it should not have been unexpected for me to be rude to one of her friends (which is now obvious i am not really one of) when he spent all night groping me
if i hadnt been trying to be nice i would have belted him one

shall just not bother trying to be anymore :-)

You canno rule tis down to being "your own fault". Blaming yourself is just as bad as constantly baming others.

Your housemate needs to understand what you did that weekend was for HER BENEFIT.

You also need to make sure that whether that dude was a friend or not his invasion of your personal body space was very unwelcome and made you feel to say the least uneasy. That allied with the fact that 4 dweebs were stopping you from going to sleep and the repeated grope from the dweeb when you confronted them.

All in all your actions were justified. What you really need to ask yourself is does she also take you for granted in other respects? My house share arrangement fell apart when I realised how much my flat mate relied on me to keep the house going. I quickly disbanded the agreement soon after, but if she is taking you for granted you should really reconsider how much you can trust this person and how much you want to live with her. At the end of the day house share arrangements are 2 a penny.
