What do you do when your roommate is barreled in and no longer talks?

[mofome]

need some help here.

I know exactly what Mo is talking about here

Try doing something off the topic of sports. That works about 50% of the time. If it doesn't work then you just gotta go about your business. He gets over it after a day or two.

There's not much you can do other than what I said. Keep in mind that he's not mad at you. He's just a tough one to cheer up. When he gets down he's the only one who can control when and how he gets back up. Give him time to clear out his head and if he doesn't want to talk by tomorrow it's probably better that he just sits out a round of baskets. By then he should be in the clear.

I wish the answer could be more appealing but if it was I would be lying.

i know hes not mad at me, its just no fun to know one person in the state of texas and that person wont talk. there is zero chance he will take off a round of brackets, so we wont discuss that. i work, go to the gym, go to the store, and just hope the big fella wins. he cant get so upset about every loss....hes going to lose a lot, just like everyone. this is no fun.

His standards are very high when it comes to women. While I think sometimes my standards are too harsh his are severe in most people's book.

if they have 1 beer he says i love ladies who love beers.

I wouldn't say zero chance for taking off a round of baskets but I would be with you on a play that said he was playing tomorrow. With that being said, he takes losing harder than anyone I know. It's not just with betting, it's with anything in general. He will go through his rounds of not wanting to talk to anyone and it stinks but sometimes no matter how hard you try there will be nothing you can do about it.

I know you aren't used to this but keep your head up and don't sweat it.

[thegreatdiatchi]

Very true. That's what makes it so hard for him to find a lady. Personally girls who smoke are automatic disqualifications for me but I def wouldn't mind dating a lady who wants to throw back a few. Just as long as she's not a raging alcoholic.

[mathdotcom]

Grab your pal, get a dozen eggs, and head to the freeway. When I lose, I bring others with me.

oh, my heads up, i just may have to kick his ass. not for me, for him. he cant get so down over a bet, its unhealthy. i mean get mad for a bit, thats fine, but every day hes stressing games like its the end of the world. i guess i'll have to get a tv for my room so i can watch things from time to time.

what makes it so hard for him is the fact that he doesn't go out. how can you meet a nice lady if you're just watchin games and chillin? he loves doops, but he never goes on doop hunts.

That part also is very true and for a time it was also a problem of mine. However, think about it. How many ladies that don't smoke, don't drink, and haven't been any more than barely used do you know that actually go out.

I would highly recommend getting your own tv even if it's a small one. Knowing from experience even if it's your best bud sometimes you need to do things by yourself.

[BigOrangeTitans]

Tell Cee he'll hear from me tomorrow Mo :grr:

im by myself a lot as is. i love the guy, its just awful seeing him all stressed over shit that he cant control and stay upset for so long. not much i can do, i am fine walking around the street and hanging out in my room.

[mofome]

Tell Cee he'll hear from me tomorrow Mo :grr:

im sure hes reading and excited to hear that.




cee likes losses less than anyone i ever met.

[diogee]

I am sure that a strip club and some beers help that.

[mofome]

he dont drink beers. maybe thats why he cant relax?

[diogee]

I see...then maybe hit some weights. That always seems to help me.

he is against work outs these days.

[OLGC_Slayer]

I always find a nice herbal cigarette helps me relax.

[BigLee55]

i have known him his whole life, he will talk eventually and start to win again... just rent a new movie and get some hotwing hoagies with fries on the side and you can cheer him up a lil.... if that doesn't work then play rockband!

[diogee]

he is against work outs these days.

Oh man that is tough...I don't really know anything else that would be too helpful. We need him back on board
