My Roommate is a Prick
Posted: January 29 08, 10:29 pm
Look, I [expletive] about my roommates a lot. While there is a lot of truth to what I say, a lot of times its tongue-in-cheek humor because they are generally good guys that I consider close friends.
My one roommate, though -- the intelligent, clean one -- is really getting on my nerves lately. He's been hanging out this chick that we both work with. We're talking like, five nights a week, constant phone discussions, text messages, etc.
He was at the bar the other night and he saw a chick he liked from middle school. They were dancing, but the girl backed out and said, "I can't do anything with you -- I know her too well." She was talking about the girl that my roommate is seeing all the time. When he was relaying me the story he said he thought to himself, "what? She isn't my girlfriend!"
Anyway, he came into my room the other day because he wanted to talk about her. They had a fight or whatever, and he wanted to vent. That's fine and dandy. He ended up telling her, "I don't even consider you my girlfriend," then explaining to me that "I haven't 'got any' from her in the three weeks we've been going out." Oh yeah, he also stressed that she gets more unattractive every time they hang out.
They make out all the time, but she's made it clear that (in her words), "just because [she's] a sorority chick doesn't mean [she's] a whore." Basically, if he wants to get laid he's going to have to wait it out. But... you don't consider her a girlfriend because she won't sleep with you? That's pretty despicable. And after three ****ing weeks, no less? Who the hell does he think he is? Do I need to remind him that he hasn't had a girlfriend since the 90's? Should I bring up his virginity? No, I don't -- he's conceded both when he was telling me about her, and yet he still acts that way.
Basically, I have no idea where this attitude or demeanor comes from. He's always acted like this. The general consensus throughout our clique is that when we're around girls, he acts like a douche. Not that he's an [expletive] directly, but just that he gets kinda lame, tires overly hard to get laid (I think most guys do, but he's a lot worse, relatively-speaking). Great guy to discuss sports with, have intelligent conversations with, etc... not the coolest to hang out with when you're around chicks.
For the longest time he whined and whined about wanting a girlfriend. I guess to him, though, his idea of a relationship is a sex slave that will do whatever he wants. A cool, respectable girl fell into his lap, and he's too shallow, superficial and ungrateful to appreciate it. What a punk.
