people you thought were your friends

Have you ever been backstabbed by the people you trusted most? I just got home from a Christmas party in which the gimmick was to bring a gag gift, and everyone draws numbers to decide who gets what. Well, my two roommates show up with an unsually large box. I figured they must have thought of a creative "gag gift," and didn't give much thought to it other than that. Well, turns out, they had boxed up my brand new $1300 bass guitar that I got brand new 2 weeks ago. I don't know what is going through their heads. I don't know if they're just insane, or if their just nothing more than spineless assholes. What I do is as I am too pissed to talk or even think clearly. I'm at the point, I will probably attack them the second they walk in the door. As soon as I saw the box opened, a roaring laughter came from the 20 something people there. Perhaps they didn't realize what had just happened, or even that it was mine. I stormed out and sped home. My hand is now bleeding from punching a hole in the wall, and all I can think of is revenge, yet I can't bring myself to do anything. Getting even would involve me walking into both their rooms, taking every single item they have that they consider valuable, which still wouldn't be enough to match my bass' value. Thank you, you backstabbing assholes.
 
What the heck? What was so funny about the gift that everyone started roaring in laughter over? Obviously they knew they couldn't keep the gift, so I presume you took it back home. If you didn't, what the hell? It's your property, they can't give it away because it doesn't belong to them.

They're obviously not your friends if they would do this to hurt you instead of knowing you would get a good laugh out of this. It doesn't sound funny unless you got the joke, which obviously isn't the case here.

Please let us know that you did get your guitar back. If you left it in someone else's possession, you OWE it to yourself to get it back. NOW. Don't delay.
 
:-o You got some weird roommates. I never experience those type of people in my lifetime, and wouldn't consider them my friends either. Why do you live with a bunch of punks to begin with?

Did you get your guitar back? I wouldn't leave the house without it if I were you.
 
I've got it back, and now my roommates are insisting they "didn't know you'd me mad."

One plus, I now have a lot more money that was to be used for Christmas presents to spend on myself.

In all seriousness. Fuck my roommates.
 
asshole!

Newsflash asshole. That bass guitar is the one nice thing I owned. I'm broke as shit with money. I have not had groceries in a month, and I have no money for Christmas shopping. I'm also constanly paying a good fifth of my check as NSF charges to the bank. And its 3 roommates. Not 6. So fuck off.

Ever think of pawning your bass guitar? You need to purchase some fresh food. Don't worry buddy, you will get your bass guitar back from the pawn shop....

Revenge is not the answer. It just makes the problem worse.
 
I just berated my roommate over it, and in short, he honestly didn't think it was stealing. I ended the conversation by letting him know I want nothing to do with him.
 
they are just being assholes

if i have those roommates i will think twice of moving out
to different apt
 
Oh dear, I'm sorry this happened to you Cental...and is very glad that you got it back....

:shaking my head at your roommates:
 
Oh I am so sorry to hear that. :hug: Now Central, hope you get thru their head and tell them it not funny. Explain to them what if it was happen to them if their stuffs was treated that way it happened to you.
 
Glad to hear that you got the guitar back ~ maybe you need to sit down with those roomies of yours and have a serious talk ~

That it was your most valuable and treasures possession.

It is worth over $1,000.00 and if you had reported it stolen, they could have been charged with a felony stealing instead of a misdemeanor.

If it had been damaged or not given back, they would have been responsible with paying you the $1,300.00 or a guitar of comparable value.

I strongly suggest you start locking your bedroom door from now on.

Have you considered some kind of soup kitchen in your area to help yourself out a little until your finances are back in order to afford food? There's no shame in asking for help.... let's get some meat on your bones now!

I'm not quite so sure I would qualify for a soup kitchen. It's not like I'm poor. More like just a starving college student. But no worries. I went grocery shopping today with the money I intended using for Christmas shopping. :thumb:
 
Now my roommate is upset because I baked a batch of cookies today, and wrote on the board that they were for the other roommates. Apparently he now wants me to move out. Pobrecita. :roll:
 
Sounds like you have a room full of spiteful and egotistic roommates. Look for another place to crash in and live there with good ol' roommates if you can try. Sometimes, roommates can be a pain in the neck for that type of behaviors they display. If they don't care about your valuable items, it's NONE of their business to bust in your room with their noses. Taking what rightfully yours is not right for them to do. Sorry you have a hard time with it now. :( I hope everything will be alright. Some people can be so wrong. I have some pet peeves about some weird people of my own:

In the past years ago, I was very contented and gettin' the party going. I get pissed off when I thought I trust some of my kids' dad's friends from Mexico. First a few years, they were polite and funny but after that, it's changed. They ruined up the party, :mad: they demanded to be serviced MORE for foods and drinks, they hollered causing disturbances of other tenants, and they were into malevolent arguments until I told them to LEAVE. I went, "WTF?? I'm NO maid to 'em if they demand more and more foods and drinks!! And I don’t like that! :madfawk: Never again will I invite those people in my home." They also spilled the beverages and they dropped the grubby forks/spoons on the just-shampooed carpet. They later passed out (two of 'em). My kids' dad didn't want to help clean up the salmagundi they made. So I made a tight rule next time. I hollered at my kids' dad :mad: (of course, using a gigantic sign languages right at his face) that under no circumstances would he invite HIS friends here any more. My friends were kinda mortified when they observed that wrecked-up party. :doh: D'ooH!!!

So far, no more invitations...ahhh, so I invited a few of my friends with no plm. HIS is shoddier. In my head, "Have their parents taught them the etiquettes and respect of other people's homes??" I dunno about their past anyway. They freaked me out. Even the former roommate which I got pissed off when he brought in a small amount of marijuana. He unsuspicious left his short in the restroom and rushed out to work. My beloved cat, Lucky, was like a k-9 dog...he would snarl and hiss and pawing the shorts and try to get into it. I was baffled. I walked up to him and tried to pull him figuring it was the scent of the male but he kept going at it. So I had to pick him up and put him in the next room. Not knowing it, I was checkin' in to see what was in the pockets. But when I tried to look in, the odor hit me hard and I said, "Damn that motherf**** what was he doing with those stuffs!?” It’s the marijuana, this reminded me of what my bad cousin’s “cigarette” smelled like. How I hate those smells. ARGH! I argued with him, he declared he's innocent.

Oh, yeah so is that is why he thought he's innocent :crazy: ...so I kicked him out at the same time, I called the BP to have him deported back to Mexico. I told them what my cat found and they cackled and teasingly called Lucky "K-9 Cat" :eek: :Oops: It was not the first time Lucky did, back in 1992, when my other former roommate brought over his friend (I was not there that time, my kids' dad and I was not married yet). My kids' dad told me what happened, Lucky was attacking the roommate's buddy on his kneecap and hissed and growled. That guy was about to kill my cat, but my kids' dad stopped him and put my cat in the bedroom and told him to leave. My mom told me that guy yelled, "My pants! They're f***in' new!! Darn that I wanna kill that f***in' cat. I paid $35 for that pants. Now my kneecap is hurt becuz of that stupid bastard." Wow...sucker is he? The former roommate was kicked out. My mother called the cops on him. I dunno if he was arrested or not but mom gave the cops a good description. A weird and wonderful cat I had. I never had any cat like that before. I guess I let him watch too many cop shows, I dunno. He loved watching TV. <sigh> I kept on laughing every since my beloved cat did something so strange and smarter as well.

I don't like some people who use drugs or carry drugs around. How can they be soooo dim-witted? Oh, well. So far, I have kept my home steady since 1998. Argh! From 1992 to 1998?? Only three times the worse time of my life. Never again. No thanks. Only my families and only a few friends I trust can come over. Kids' dad now found a couple and best friends who are better than the others. Wheew! But I gave him the list of do and don't :deal: .
