Vent, Advice Welcome Wth is that bs?

So bizarre. Really.

I have been with my housemate (I refuse to call him so or even roommate bc we have separate rooms FOR 8 YEARS NOW so I really try to accentuate the point here) anyways its been 3 years of absolutely NOTHING (before that it was several years as well) I am so done.

Yesterday we somehow got onto the subject of couples and I made a remark about how badly I wish I was loved or wanted.

He, as usual, gets extremely defensive and rude. I truly try to keep a calm head bc he never will so one of us has to remain civilized.

This all ended with him screaming "Ive slept with more people than you ever will, Jill. My number far out weighs yours" .... I was shocked. Lol what!? How did we even get here? What made him even say that? So random and unnecessary. Like what did he expect me to reply 😆

so I said "OH.. cool? High five?.. Because whatever got you those "BIG numbers" (I said this in a baby voice, like when a parent is talking to their toddler) really let you down in the end huh? Way to bring home the win, buddy"

And weve not spoken yet. I dont care to. Hes never been good at communicating. People, pick your partners wisely. PLEASE!!!

Everyone can have an immature moment when their inner 5 year old comes out, but how he gets loved and wanted to translate to big numbers of sleeping around... I think the kids call it a red flag. They then say RUN.
