New development
So, my roommate and I were trying to get a house together with a few other friends. We were gonna try at least. We'd been talking about it all semester, we'd driven around and gotten numbers. Everything was going along.
So, Monday, we're sitting at lunch and we haven't talked for 15-20 minutes. She looks at me and says, "So, I've been talking to Katie (a friend of ours), and she wants to live off campus but she doesn't wanna live with Grant (another friend of ours that we were talking about living with). So...me and her are gonna get a place together. 'Cause she doesn't have any problem with getting an apartment (I want a house so I can have my dog) and neither do I really (she had wanted to bring her dog up, too). Grant doesn't think I house with four people would be a good idea, anyway." So I said, okay, I guess I'll have to find someone else to live with. And then she looked at me with this, "You're stupid," look she has and says, "Um, Grant?" Then, a little later, when we weren't talking again she was like, "I didn't mean to drop a bomb on you, I just have to do what's best for me." So, I thought that was kind of shitty.
But, then I come to find out, she talked to everyone of ours friends about it but me. She told me Monday, my friend Rachel said that she had been talking about it the Saturday before at this party we were at when I had gone off to get a drunk friend of ours water. Apparently she said, "I just don't think me and Courtney can live together. But, I could live with you Katie, that won't be a problem." And Katie shrugged and was like, whatever, which is very Katie like. And when I told our friend Helen that Kristin was gonna live with Katie, she didn't sound surprised at all and started saying that living by myself could be really nice. And our friend Rachel said that Grant had talked to her and said he wouldn't mind living with me and another person.
So, basically, everyone knew, she was talking to everyone about this, but me. And, instead of telling me the truth, that we wouldn't do well living together (which does seem to be very true seeing as a want to scream at her a good portion of the time), she coped out and blamed it on Grant and Katie.
She also does that thing where, someone will tell a story, and instead of commenting on it or seeming like she cares at all she launches into something completely different, seemingly with no regard for anyone else or what anyone else was saying.
And, I fucking ask her how she is all the time. "How are you doing today?" "What are you up to today?" "How was your day?" All those kind of questions. And you know what she does? She answers, and that's all. Maybe it's the way I was raised, but when someone asks you how you are, you ask them in return. It's polite and something friends should do. And, theoretically, we're friends.
Sadly, all I can see now is this selfish chick with no regard for anyone else's feelings.
My friend Caroline's view on this: "For someone that has emotions coming out of her ears, I can't believe that she can't see that other people feel them too...at all."
*sigh*
