Those who own pets are happy to take care of something other than themselves and are usually reliable.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>They often use mind altering substances<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>When asking your prospective tenants about their drug\/alcohol use, ask them in a totally non-judgemental tone and use the the word \u2018often\u2019 as this implies that you occasionally do and will make the prospective tenant give a more honest answer\u2026..<\/p>\n\n<p>Even if they appear totally normal watch out for \u201cI use crystal meth every weekend\u201d or \u201cI use dope every single night and day.\u201d Both <strong>can<\/strong> bring on psychosis. (Though by no means are we\u00a0suggesting this of all users!)<\/p>\n\n<p>In choosing flatmates, \u201cmoderation\u201d seems to be our watchword, because neither do we,\u00a0want to be lectured on the evils of alcohol every time we\u00a0have a vodka!<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong> They admit to certain idiosyncrasies. . .<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>Idiosyncrasies are what makes us who we are\u2026\u2026but there a few which virtually shout out \u201cI am a nutter!\u201d<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>They use a slide and rule to line up the groceries in the cupboard.<\/li>\n\n<li>Each one of their food items in the pantry is individually locked with a\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.tulsachain.com\/asccustompages\/products.asp?categoryID=402\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">grade 120 chain<\/a> and a padlock<\/li>\n\n<li>You are hounded by notes, emails and txts to use the dryers of laundromats, even though the one in the laundry works perfectly well, and you are willing to pay \u2018extra\u2019 for use of \u201csaid dryer\u201d<\/li>\n\n<li>They (this is for a male flatmate) like to dress up in ladies clothes but staunchly refuse to admit they are a transvestite. (This can be accompanied by a few of your own clothes going missing!)<\/li>\n\n<li>They like to sharpen their knife collection once a week (if not more)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong> They have parties once a month. . .<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>\u2026.. with other \u201clike minded\u201d friends which involve everyone getting naked at the stroke of midnight (if not before), painting weird symbols on their bodies and spiking the punch with something that ends up leaving a whole lot of naked bodies scattered around your house, no memory of the night before and strange puncture marks on various parts of their bodies.<\/p>\n\n<p>Or they have parties every night, by themselves<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong> Go with your intuition. . .<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>We\u00a0can not express this one long and loud enough. Despite what people may say, our intuition, no longer needed to ensure our survival, still has a place in our everyday lives.<\/p>\n\n<p>For example, we\u00a0once had to pick between two prospective flatmates; one was kind of kooky and a little unfortunate looking, the other\u2026well think Matt Damon\u2026..we were\u00a0truly torn\u2026we had all but said yes to Kooky Boy, but who in their right mind wouldn\u2019t want to live with Matt Damon right? Then we\u00a0asked ourselves a simple question. If we\u00a0were in trouble, who would we\u00a0trust to help us?<\/p>\n\n<p>So we picked Kooky Boy. And funnily enough, about a year later, he saved our\u00a0life. Even if a flatmate seems too perfect but you get a decidedly odd feeling about them, GO WITH YOUR INSTINCT. It (almost never) fails.<\/p>\n\n<p>Is your flatmate too weird?<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lets face it, choosing a flatmate, can be a bit of a crapshoot unless you\u2019re lucky enough to move in with someone you know well.
