When a story comes through about a crazy flatmate, it's usually for a litany of weirdness and strange behaviour. Seems that the nutty ones are usually completely pushing the envelope of quirky habits and actions in the house. This story submitted by Sue is another charming example of a flatmate out on the edge....
"I used to live in a house share with 6 great house mates- and one complete nutter! She was a young girl from the Czech republic and when she first moved in we invited her out so we could get to know her. On that night out she was flirting with 2 men who then ended up fighting-much to her delight! She thought it was hilarious and said "I can't help it if God made me beautiful" However, that was nothing. One night she went into one of my housemate's room and showed him that she'd cut her wrists. Panic striken he tried to help her and calm her down. However, the wrist cutting became a regular occurence: about once a week.
That was as well as making herself sick after every meal and leaving it in the pan for us to see. It was bad enough that she stole my food, but puking it out 10 minutes later was not just theft but wasteful! Oh, and leaving her used sanny towels on the floor instead of putting them in the bin was another of her charming habits.
Once when I caught her red handed stealing my food I confronted her about it. Instead of apologising or offering to replace it she stood in the doorway screaming. When I ignored her she went into her room and just screamed and screamed for about 15 mins. I eventually moved out cos I got my own place but the fella who took over my room was less tolerant and got the landlord to kick her out. She's still out there somewhere in south Liverpool. Beware!"
Now doesn't she sound like someone you'd like to live with? NOT!!!!!! Thanks for the story Sue!
