Horror Flatmates

ok I don't have them but my BF and my little sister have them. So they are moving out of their flats into one together.

First one My BF flatmate. He is anal about everything. On Monday he and the other flatmate cooked dinner at home and my BF didn't. But when she came home she used a glass and a knive. Tuesday morning he gets up early (just as my BF was leaving for work at 7am) just to tell her off for not doing the dishes last night. They have a screaming match in the middle of Haitaitai. Tuesday night I have dinner there with her and he didn't say a word to her. However once we left and after she spoke to her dad on the phone he rings her dad to talk to her dad about her attitude to dishes . This dude has his own issues.

Second my sisters (My sister and her friend S have the lease on the flat). Her job is standing on the street corner and doing things to men for money (I have nothing against her job she wants to do it thats fine). My problem with her is that she is now 6 weeks behind in her rent and the LL won't do anything about kicking her out and is 4 months behind in the phone bill which is in my sisters name (the bill has been paid but she owes my sister the money for it), and is very inconsiderate to the other flatmates with noise. My sister before she left disconnected the phone without telling the horror flatmate  who I will call BW.

On Tuesday I went down to pick my sister up from the airport and we were going to stay at her place. We got back to her flat and BW had a note on her door stating tennant asleep please be quiet, now as she is never quiet when the other ask her to be we ignored that and I let the boys talk and play. BW gets all huffy and storms outside it have a smoke and talk on her cell phone (now she can't use the LL ) comes back in and we are getting the boys ready for bed and she can see this.

So she goes into her room and turns the stereo up really loud. I knocked on the door and asked nicely if she could turn it down a bit so the whole of Wellington didn't have to hear it. No response, so I knock a bit harder. She comes out all guns blazing yelling abuse at me in front of my children that I have no right to be there, i'm a fat cow, I should be knocking on the door etc etc. I let her go for it and she was inching towards the door so I knew she was going to yell and run (a wimp). After she had finished I asked her if she had and told her MY turn (in a calm voice). 1. I did knock on your door but the stereo and what you call singing was far too loud to hear anything. 2. Pay your rent - she butting in again and told me it was none of my business and 3 pay the phone bill - to which she told me again none of my business. To that I responded if its in my sisters name I have every right to help my sister out.

She left the flat and I did not want to be there any more for my childrens safety. I could handle her but my boys didn't need to see her doing what she did, and I knew she would turn her stereo up load and leave it up all night (which she did do as the flat next door heard it all night long ).

So we left to sleep at my sister's bosses place as they were away. My parents are livid with BW and really want my sister our of the flat (lease runs out next month - thank god).

My sister and S had a meeting with BW yesterday after I came back home and have told her she has until 6pm on the 16th to pay everything that is owed or they are taking her to court to get the money (disputes tribunal) and they know they will get the money as a lawyer (a friend of these) has already told them they have a good case as they have evidence.

So anyone else got horror flatmate stories??

I had one of those forst flatmates, too, he was a right dick, and used to ring up my mum and complain about how "moody" I was inthe mornings. I know I am a bit moody in the AM, so I have always told people about it, so there is no shock that I say very little till after a cuppa and a shower and about 8.30am, even mykids get the quiet treatment, lol.

I have a few horrors, wil have to think on it and get back to ya.

My sister had the weirdest flatmate - turned out she was stealing things and a habitual liar and had lied about every single thing since she first moved in (including having a daughter who died of leukemia) She was finally found out when she told another flatmate that a painting on the wall had been done by her 'dead daughter' - shame she didn't know that the painting had been done by our younger sister and the other flatmate knew this and told my sister. Needless to say she was asked to leave pretty quick...

I've lived with lots of interesting people..

Worst flat mate had to be this chick who came to live with us for about 6 weeks. She moved in, told us she wasn't a party girl etc.. me and my flatties went in her room one day to get dishes that she had left in there, she had lots of plates etc and we found needles n sh*t on the floor so we kicked her out

Ekk so glad I have never lived with any weirdos. Argh at BW she sounds like a right royal pain in the back side.

Holy crap. Jute and Gaz have nothing on those freaks!!

Becks - we live down the road from Hataitai... probably could have heard the screaming match from ours! hehe

we dont quite have the flatmates from hell but we are about to move into a house owned by a friend i have grown up with and she has just kicked the current tenants out...so anyway there are so many things that il only list a few - they have parties all the time! which always end in huge fights at around 3am! a few weeks ago one guy was running around the culdasac screaming that he had killed his bro! (incase your wondering - we currently live across the road! lol) so these parties always end with the cops,,,,, the house was newly renovated before they moved in and it now has holes in all the walls, curtains are ripped to shreads!, kitchen has to be replaced ASAP (dodgy activities!!), the bathroom and toilet needs to be replaced!, they have 3 caravans, 4 cars dumped in the back yard!, several dogs, the carpet is shot thanks to the dogs and their kids who have *AHEM* "issues"! , they are unbelievably behind on the rent!, the windows on 1 side are smashed and worst of all their next door neighbour is the landlords mother!!!! and evertime this lady has a BBQ they jump the fence and join in on the feed!! amoung other things!!........needless to say my friend DID NOT get a bond from them for some reason! so is left to clean it up herself!! and they now have 3 days to move but have not lifted a finger so i see trouble comming!!

Well, I don't know if this really gets me into the 'horror' category of flatmates, but I had a couple of flatties in Auckland who were less than ideal.
In the first flat there was 'Lynn'. She was a bit older than me and had just divorced her husband, so the flat was filled with her half of their house, couches etc., which was cool and it wasn't like me and the other girl there were huge slobs. But Lyn was the most anal, pendantic person I've ever met. She'd go into huge hissy fits if we didn't rearrange the throw cushions on the couch after sitting on it and other small and petty issues. Then she got a cat. The cat pooed EVERYWHERE and she'd leave it for days before cleaning it up . I hated that cat. Then Lynn moved out to live with her new boyfriend, without telling us, was behind in the rent AND left the cat behind for two weeks, expecting us to feed and look after it without ever mentioning this fact (she took the couches before she took the cat). Nightmare.
The second flat was much more fun, but one of the guys there insisted on walking around in his robe with nothing else on underneath. I never sat on the couch he would lounge on. And he kept inviting randoms back to stay, mostly travellers, which was cool as we got to meet some interesting people, but he never got them to contribute anything and when other flatties went away he was likely to let the randoms stay in their bedrooms! One night one of the other guys came home early from a trip away and got a nasty surprise - an english couple who were staying in his room (without his knowledge) had left their pet german shepard in there and when he opened the door it went mental! Poor guy had to wait for the people to return from their night out to get into his own room. He was not impressed. We all ended up getting bolts and padlocks for our doors so if we went away he couldn't use them!

Hailstones, did you live with "thst" guy? the one takin advantage of older women, like 35+ and gettigthem to buy cars etc telling them he had money coming? ewwwwwww

Yip - I'm guessing its the same person your thinking of. But he had us all fooled, like he did with those poor women. Hopefully though the law caught up with him and some justice has been done. (Esp for those women he ripped off)
