How (Not) to Kill a Roommate (Part Three)

A long gap between things for many reasons...

I got invited by a roommate to a BBQ.  No problem there, although I really did not know any of the people there and was the only person who spoke English.  All of that I could have handled.  What I cannot deal with is being bullied by someone who invites you to a party and then expects you to not notice that he did so because he had a few shots and, hey, his annoying girlfriend was there (a thief as well; read one of my earlier columns about how to handle such a person). 

Man, how do I get into these situations?  Ahh, yes.  I'm too nice to new people.  If I had just stayed at home that night (or gone out with a real friend), I would not being having awkward moments in the kitchen and hallway.  Only good thing is that I really do not feel the urge to sit down and clear the air.  There was also a BBQ at our place and I just went to bed after a long day of work.  That probably did it for me.

Now, I usually try to say something funny or give smart-ass advice on what to do in these situations.  This time, I feel that I should just state the facts and let the world of the web decide on the matter. 

Any comments on this would be appreciated...
