anyone that knows California, knows that there are beautiful areas to visit and live and know that there is a huge valley section of CA which outsiders don't realize that it is pretty much the armpit of CA. I grew up on this coastal city of CA and love the beach, I don't know life without the beach and when I visit area's like Bakersfield or Fresno, and the such extreme toxic difference of the heat and air quality and simply no beach around, all this above is relevant because it will have it's play in this question. 4 years ago is when I moved out and decided to live in this condo, the condo is literally 100 feet from the ocean crashing into the rocks and it was my dream to find this place. Most places anywhere in this city, town for a 2 bedroom condo, a good size two bedroom is going for 12-1800.00 a month. I got really lucky getting this place 4 years ago and my rent is 1400 a month is a good price and split between two, a bit cheaper for the roommate cause I have the master bedroom and my own bathroom. Her bedroom also has a sliding door to the balcony which is extreme ocean view and the bathroom which is down the hall way which also has a shower is hers, I don't keep anything of mine inside it, I told her she can do whatever she wishes with this bathroom. Her Dad wasn't very open with the idea of me being a guy but I am extremely clean and don't like clutter which she doesn't either, pretty much what I am saying is that she is a perfect hard to find roommate. Her dad met my parents and myself and checked out the whole place and over time we became friends, I am friends of her parents and we get along very well. This is a college town and she is going to college as am I and so we are just really good friends, we watch tv, movies together, she is like a sister to me and it has always been like this. Anyways I met this girl about 1 months ago now and when I told her I had a roommate she was oh how is he and, I was like no she, and she is a very good person and she just becomes extremely irrational about it. me and my roommate are night owls, we enjoy movies and share some hobbies and my gf is disrespectful and simply rude to her, screams whenever I bring up her name. I spend a lot of time with my gf. even though she has to get up early in the morning to work she stays up on purpose and just simply stares pretty much, doesn't pay attention to the movie and she never enjoys watching tv series and movies anyways so I do with my roommate. Same thing as a guy, I use to have a guy roommate and we would hang out, play games and stuff but he turned out to be a dead beat and started not to have money for rent. I just get extremely upset that she treats my roommate like this and said she is like a sister to me, a very good friend and I can't have you ruin this for me and have her move out. Her dad pays the rent and because he loves the location he pays me half for the place with bills included so I get a check for 900 a month which I wouldn't get from anyone else, so everything works out good except for the fact that my gf thinks it is not normal and absolutely crazy. I spend a lot of time to make the place look very nice, so first impression is like WOW this is paradise setting when really, yes it takes some money but I make it look like it because of class. The living room has my home theater and very large coral reef aquarium. my gf, her family is from fresno and she goes to school out there but works at a good job here in the city I am at so she is only here for 3-4 days a week and it is always about my roommate this an that, I don't get why she doesn't enjoy her company, my roommate makes attempts to be very nice to her, but I think my gif is just jealous cause 1) she is rich - so my gf is just envy of her. 2) she is very attractive but doesn't come chill on the couch wearing a shirt and panties so I don't know what her problem is, gf problem. Would you females have a problem with me if I had a very nice place, environment to me, means everything so I make it very nice to chill there and I spend a lot of time with my gf, take her out to places to eat, I cook, I always clean her car when she comes up cause she likes me to drop her off to work and drive her car back so I can spend time with her on the drive up. I always clean and make it spotless cause she makes it filthy dirty every time I see it each week. I drive back up, bring dinner with me so she can eat something on the way back down but she has a extreme issue of my roommate being female. she can hang out with me with all the time she wants in my room, she makes it a point which i don't even tell my roomie to do which she does anyway and will just stay in her room most of the time and when we get in, we can stay in the living room, kitchen and she won't even be around.. the second room is downstairs anyways where the garage entrance is and washer and dryer area and her room and the bathroom, my room is upstairs where my bathroom is in my room and the living room and kitchen are outside of my room. We have plenty of privacy and no I am not trying o have them be best friends or even friends, my roommate tries to be nice to her and friends with her by offering stuff. My room is like the living room, I have a entertainment environment in my room with my computer and and everything inside. we don't have to whisper or anything cause the condo is pretty large and for her to hear anything you would have to travel through several walls and be upstairs, not like wall to wall I know it is unattractive by explaining so much but if you want to understand the situation it requires it, so if you take that me being clingy, I am far from it... I don't give a shit what my gf says and I mess with her when she acts like a jealous fool. Being from fresno, I bring it up cause she brings it up all the time that she is hated cause she is around here and she loves to talk about the whole fresno/coast debate so wanted to include that cause like you said about them being conservative, idk, but to her the fresno thing is a big deal to her, not dissing fresno, I just say I would never live there. she brags about how she has a 5 bedroom house, sick of hearing that, really it is a dump and it is 3 bedrooms and 2 rooms are half fast mexican made in the garage and her house is a dump, really depressing being there.. when I say environment, ENVIRONMENT is a big deal to me, where you come to, where you live, you want to make it as comfortable as you can cause it is your escape...
