About a Boy
I just recently broke up with my boyfriend and for some reason I thought living with a guy roommate would be fun and drama free. Everything was great for the first six months, despite the fact that most of the apartment aside from my bedroom, was decorated with Dungeons and Dragons paraphernalia. I liked his friends, we enjoyed going to bars together and he seemed like a great roommate, that is until he met my best friend. I didn’t have a problem with them dating and I knew he was really smitten with her. She did eventually break up with him after a few weeks and that is when things went sour. He started working out a lot (but only for a week) and behaved like a big baby. He pretty much stopped speaking to me altogether. A few months later he told me he was going to move out so we switched the lease over to my name and things seemed to be going smoothly. That is until I came home to find his key under the mat and most of his stinky dog furniture in my apartment. My boyfriend had to come over and literally take apart the couch with a buzz saw so that we could throw it in the dumpster. He left me with a bunch of bills to pay too. Ironically, the girl that moved in to replace him was awesome and completely drama free.
That’s not irony. Not at all.
Not ironic, just sexist.
I hate it when women are like, “Oh, other women are so dramatic.” They tend to be the same kinds of women who brag about liking sports and beer and hating shoe shopping, as if this somehow makes them special, superior to all those “other” women, who are obviously prissy princesses who love nothing more than drama and shoe shopping.
I strongly dislike it when people misuse the word “ironic”,
men have their own drama, it just doesn’t involve PMS. And why did you let him put up all that Goober stuff? i’d have told him to keep the D and D crap to his room….
Sounds like OP failed her saving throw vs. misuse of the word irony.
So…. really the only problem was that he left some unpaid bills…
an outcome of events contrary to what was, or might have been, expected.
The OP expected a male roommate to be drama free but contrary to expectations it was the female roommate who was drama free….
