heh, we actually compliment one another well ( :ghey: ). We keep one another in check, one of the reasons why both of us have never done drugs. If we head out, one of us usually only drinks a few beers, unless we're going out in a large group. It's funny, most people who meet the both of us, think that we're brothers since we act very similar. Even though he's full white and I'm half mex.

just ask Rich, he and his buddy came down to SD and we all went to a bar near the beach that is full of skanks :grinpimp:

Well I can entertain myself too.........when I'm by myself I work out a lot. I dunno, I guess I would probably drink more too as I'd be all alone.

How often a week do friends come over? I mean, I have at least some friends stop over every day but I think we probably hang out there at least 4-5 times a week........i actually see them there more than my roomate who sleeps all the time since he works so butt early

Sure sometimes roommates are a pain in the ass, but for the most part I love living with the people I do. There is never a dull moment, there is always somebody to kick it with, and we all have a great time when we party/go the bar or whatever.

See thats part of the problem...........my roomate is 23 going on 50.......he rarely ever goes out, instead opting to sit at home and drink a few beers, and i do mean just a few(it took him about 3 weeks to finish 1 18 pack and the only reason it got finished was because I drank the last 5) When we go to the bars, he never wants to talk to girls and when i bring girls over he won't talk to them.......makes it kind of uncomfortable if there is 1 person who is just sitting there and listening to u talk.

He is never there to kick it with........he goes to bed at 9pm(which is usually about the time i get home from the office) so i never see him more than 5 minutes before he goes to bed.........i see him more at 3:30am when he wakes up to go to work and me and friends will be watching a movie or doing something.........

I wish my roomate wasn't such an old fart its really annoying, especially when he does go out and he has his 20 dollar budget which is i guess cool for him but then he says i shouldn't waste all my money on buying people drinks and buying bottles of expensive shit like JW Blue........he is like having a dad hang around with u

So just an update...............i got home and he left me a note.........a ****ing note........what kind of woman can't talk to another guy face to face and writes a note? anyhoo the note goes "If I have to do this one more time I'm moving out"

Basically he means cleaning.............i had really no idea so i left him a note as i have a presentation tomorrow at work and can't stay up and wait for him to wake up.........my note goes

"good don't let the door hit u on the way out"

nah j/k

i go "alright sorry, i'll try to keep it cleaner in the future..........however u need to talk to me, i can't read your mind and had really no clue you felt this way. I'm not that hard to talk to, i realize you are pretty quiet but if something is bothering you, you need to speak up, lets divide up the cleaning from now on, my suggestion is since i don't eat very much........you take the kitchen and i'll take the living room? anyways, call my office tomorrow if u want to talk, i might be in the conference room with Kevin so leave a msg with my secretary and i'll call u back.........later"

I think I was pretty fair right?

i live with 3 assholes. 2 of them are out in the living room right now with their skank girlfriends and unkempt friends. theyre being loud and drinking and :bandito: because none of them really have any responsibilities or obligations.

i tell them everyday, "you're too loud, its very inconsiderate." "oookay, man! anything, just let us know!" next night.......same damn thing.

and i am the ONLY person in this place that cleans. i let it go 1 week and this place looked horrible...trash was building around the can, crumbs on the floor, unorganized couches and tables....sickening. but guess who cleaned it all up?

well..........if u must know i am hiring an assistant to go start my car at night and wipe the snow off of it job pays 20k annually and 2% comission!

Thats not the point.........i have a conference tomorrow with the owner about more budget issues and have been swamped with this crap all week so if he calls and i'm not there he won't think i'm avoiding him......... h:

Anyways..........I went and lifted weights and cleared my head and i feel a lot better about the situation now. I know I'm not that hard to live with because all my other roomates and I have had great experiences and still remain close friends to this day. The thing that sucks about this situation is that my roomate now has been one of my best friends for probably the past 6 years or so...........and I really don't want that to end, sure we may not be getting along great right now but I would really miss him as a friend. I just think we need to sit down and talk about shit. Opinions?
