sticky situation concerning living arrangements
hi
i'm just throwing this out there to see if anyone has any suggestions.
i'm at uni. have been for 8 weeks now. i'm in uni accommodation until hune, then i move out in to ahouse with housemates that we have to find ourselves, pay for etc. well apparently all the decent houses go soon after christmas so i've been looking at who i'd like to live with next year. i have a group of 3 other guys who i've made decent friends with and i'd be happy living with them. the problem is this, however:
a few weeks ago i was at a pub with my housemate and he was just like "yeah well we'll have to start looking for houses soon, you and me, make sure we gtet the best one". i was foolish enough not to say "well i havent decided who i'm moving in with now". i DO NOT want to live with this guy. he's a complete slob. his room is a trie mess but that's his business. the kitchen is mine though and he never ever washes up unless another housemate tells him to. he also takes my cooking things without asking and either doesnt rreturn them or leaves them for me to wash up, and he takes peoples food. i'm not about to spend more years living with him.
now the guys i do want to move in with are all "yeah i dont care if he moves in with us or not". i'm positive they do mind but as they know im so against the idea they are saying they dont mind so as to make me be the one to get rid of him and they can all be the "well we wanted you in our house but that bastard was dead against it" guys.
i dont know how to make him look elsewhere. the subject was brought up today and i kept saying "well i havent decidded who i want to move in with yet" but he just seems to ignore it.
It's early days yet but if anyone has any suggestions on how i can make him look elsewhere or how i can somehow get a house without him. So far the only way i can think of is going "i dont want to live with you" but that isnt really going to allow us to be friends afterwards...
Cheers
