Exclamation Disturbing Time

Just need to make a comment. I had a disturbing time last night. Literally felt my flat mate have sex last night. We live in an old Queenslander with wobbley floor boards so I felt it wobbling till they stopped. It does not help that my sex and romance life is no existent and I dont know what to do about it.

Of Course could not sleep.

sorry, but this is the reason why i don't want a roommate.

A. I don't want anyone else other than me and my girl in the apt if I'm having it
B. I don't want to hear someone else in my apt having it.

Wish I could afford not to have one. And I want to buy my own place and need another person to cover part of the morgtage still.

Oh that must be awful. Thank goodness no one is in my three-bedroom house but me! I don't care how much someone would pay me to rent one of the rooms....no way.

This would be bothersome in your situation. I don't think there's much you can do really.
By the way, what is an old QLD'r? Never heard that term.

Unfortunately it doesn't sound like there is much you can do. It isn't a noise problem, so you can't quite ask them to change what isn't their fault. Does this happen often enough so you don't get sleep on a regular basis?

Maybe you could look up a different type of living arrangement where the house isn't so... responsive to other's activities, or find a part of the house where the boards don't wobble?

I think this is a problem that's existed since time immemorial. Imagine how it was when everyone slept in the same room! I think you should talk to your flatmate and let them know that their private moments aren't so private. It's up to them to decide whether or not they want someone else privy to their shenanigans, but if they don't care, I don't know what else you can do.

Buy an airhorn & blow it when they start rattling the floors.

Fortunately this is the first time it has happened. It would not be such a problem if I had a sex life but am trying to work on that. Just have to return the favour. Mind you now I know what my previous house mates where going through with my previous girlfriend (a drought for 7 months) 6 or more times a week.

The wobbly floor boards are the most disturbing because I can feel all there movements.

Then if I were you, I'd yell really loud: "Harder....harder....yeah...right there......OH YEAH!!!!..."

LOL -

Last night they went for it again but I think I woke up at the end. I mean what else would they do when she sleeps over.

I just want to bring a woman home and just tired of watching everyone else having fun.

Buy a porno and turn up the part where the woman yells really loud. Then tell your roommate the next day that you had the most amazing night!
