him: "you're being so selfish! how do you think I can come up with my half of the rent in 2 days?"
me: "I don't know. we could get a third roommate."
him: "and then I'd have to put up with another fucking person?
me: "yes."
him: "haven't I always been here for you? Don't I always try to help you out?"
me: "yes, even though I don't always want or need your help."
him: "what?!? I've always helped you out! {goes through a litany of ways he's 'helped'}. How come you're so selfish?"

him: {stares at the TV for 3 solid minutes drinking cheap whiskey}

Why don't you get rid of the dogs or the horses or something, instead of asking me to pay my 'half' of the rent? You know I never would have moved in here if I had to do that. You told me that you would pay 2/3 and I would pay 1/3. I told you I could help you out with utilities, even though I shouldn't have to. Why are you going back on your word?"
me: "we've had this conversation before, and we're not getting anywhere. i'm going outside now."
him: "get back here! why do you always leave? friends communicate. why won't you talk to me? Fucking bitch."
me: "no. this conversation is over."
