Has my housemate gone kinda psycho?

So me and this other guy move into this 3 bedroom place that this lady has got the lease for, and she has been living there for 8 months or so.

We are all strangers, and seem to be getting on surprisingly well. No terse words, everyone pulling their wight with the cleaning, you know, the important things. In fact, I had asked if she wanted to join me out at a pub one night with one of my mates, cause I had been enjoying her company. She declined, but the point is we have been getting along really good.

So the other night she brings up the phone bill, and tells me that I owe $20. I (very nicely) tell her that I thought we were going to mark all our calls, and divide it up that way.She says that will only happen when a certain number of calls are made, and that number of calls were not made, and (in a very confrontational tone) “Just give me the $20 alright” . I say “thats the spririt”, all light hearted like, thinking lets just let her attitude slide, and she starts off all agro saying " Are you going to argue with everything I say" …so here is how it went…

“I didn’t know I did”
“Well you do”
“I don’t actually know what your talking about”
“Your always arguing with me and if you keep it up you aren’t going to last here very long”

To cut an already long story short, she told me if I discuss anything with her, even without arguing, that I will be kicked out. Isn’t this just a bit confrontational, non-compromising and completely un-neccessary behaviour and attitude for the lease holder in a group house. And it comes on top of getting along great guns, no arguements, for the last 5 weeks.

By the way, she is a 10 bong a day girl.

Me thinks pot-pyschosis is catching up with her cause I don’t know whats going on.

Anyhoo, OP answers anyone…please…you’ve read this far!

Oh, boy. That sure sounds like it is out of the blue, but DO think back hard to see if maybe she was hiding some frustration, however illogical.

As for the pot thing, I have lived with lots of potheads and they would go off like this all the time. We’d make up right away though, just as soon as someone rolled a new joint :smiley:

I’d talk to the other guy and see if he’s noticed anything weird. Hopefully she’ll have a good day and get some good pot some time soon and apologize. If she keeps being cold, I’d move out, it’s just too stressful a situation.

And the General Question here is?

Well, I’m wondering if he is living with my mother, because that sounds exactly like something she would do (or has done).
I blame the pot.

>> And the General Question here is?

Why is this still here? :smiley:

Hooli! Over 200 views and 4 replies! I’ve got to spice up my posts more I guess .

THanks to those who did pass advice on though. I’m looking for a new place right now. It’s just not worth living with someone who can’t compromise or discuss situations, without blowing things out of proportion or threatening to kick me out.

Apologies Mr Mod if this is in the wrong forum :slight_smile:

I’d say the Question was: “What the fuck should/can I do about this nutcase!” :smiley:

And a damned valid one at that :wink:

You must have incriminating pics of one of the mods to have this post left untouched for so long as this really is more of an IMHO type question vs something with a concrete answer. Having said that my “opinion” is that your landlady/roommate is irrational and has the power to put you out. If you like living with a incipient nutcase’s sword dangling over your head stay, if not, move.

The only reason I left it was that I thought that there was more chance of the OP seeing it that way, him being a newbie and all. He’s seen it now.
