Her Roommate Was the Real Problem

I came over for her.

We’d been flirting for weeks, trading late-night messages that made class the next day impossible to focus on.

She finally invited me over — and I thought I knew exactly how the night would go.

But then I met her roommate.

Not in a “she was nicer” way. Not in a “we had chemistry” way.

In a “she made the entire night awkward” way.

She kept hovering in the doorway, making little comments that didn’t sound like jokes.

Asking questions like she was the confession police.

Dropping hints about my date’s ex… who apparently wasn’t “over it.”

By the time I left, I wasn’t thinking about the girl I came for — I was wondering why her roommate cared so much.

Jealousy? Protectiveness? Or something else entirely?

Now I can’t stop wondering what would’ve happened if the door had been locked… or if I’d come over when the roommate wasn’t home.

On FreeTo.Chat, I could drop this whole story, get hit with 🫠 or 👀 in the Premium emoji vault, and finally get some outside perspective — without it blowing up the group chat.

Because some nights, the truth’s messier than the plan.
