We lay our scene in the incredibly shoddy apartment that you, for some reason, share with your boyfriend. It is 4 p.m., and you are toiling away at your second shift of the day, because for some reason, you support the both of you. In the meantime at the apartment, your boyfriend is jostling with the key because he even weaponizes that incompetence, with — get this — another girl. As he finally gets the lock to work, poor baby, he curls his lip upward and then snickers, “My roommate isn’t here, so…” Now, if upon reading that you began to descend into a panic attack because it felt all-too-real and precisely mirrors what your friend told you through a wince after saying, “We have to talk,” we implore you to heed the following pleas. Your boyfriend is the biggest loser there ever was — even the discord mod dwelling in his mom’s basement is doing better for himself than he is. Hell, at least he refers to his mother as “Mom” and not “roommate.” Let that sink in.
