It was nice to watch My Housemate Die Inside Lonely
This happened to me in my second year of college in the UK around 1998. There were six of us living in a house with an equal number of boys and girls.
David was my best friend, but he was very shy and didn't trust people. He got along great with the girls we lived with, especially Camila.
We moved in with Camila's boyfriend, who she broke up with after a few months because he was a jerk.

He thought they were just friends, but everyone else saw that they were into each other. David was still single, which is what the story is all about.
David was nothing like our other guy flatmate Hunter. He played. His high school girlfriend went to a different college a few hours away, so he would sleep with anyone who would have him. He also liked Camila and tried to date her a few times but was turned down each time.
Hunter used to make fun of David for not having a girlfriend. At first, he only did it once in a while. But as David and Camila got closer, he started calling him "Virgin boy" to make fun of him. Everyone else told him to stop, but he did it anyway for a few…
