How do I stop my roommates from being envious of my fiance?
I have this amazing fiance: he’s thoughtful, fun, and pretty darn good-looking. All my roommates are envious of me because of it.
How do I make them understand that he’s not perfect, and also that he’s not the last one out there? I don’t think they would purposely hit on him, but they’re constantly saying that they’re jealous and that they want him…

My goodness! You cold be in trouble… If one of your roommates is also “darn good-looking” and decides to go after him — you could be in for a real battle…
To play it safe you could alienate your fiance from your roommates… If he is made to feel uncomfortable around them, he will stay within your “chalked lines”.
As he’s next to perfect you can’t mess with him, but your roommates should all be fair game, no? Heck, you are the one who has put in all the hours polishing him in to all that he is today, right? Having someone take over now would be plain wrong, wouldn’t it?
If you introduce new information about your fiance to your roommates, they will start acting differently around him — if ever so slightly. He will sense that they are treating and looking at him in an “odd” way, and he will start feeling awkward around them, thus immunizing him to any advances!
The only way you can make them see him in a new light is to tell your roommates about all his flaws. If he doesn’t have any bad ones — lie! It is extremely important to only introduce fake facts that your roommates would never dare bringing up to him…
Here are a couple of ideas to get you going:
- He is a good enough lover despite being hung like a toy poodle…
- He prefers using a lady shaver when removing hair from his feet and back…
- He was wet nursed by his grandmother until he was 12…
- He will always very carefully examine his handkerchief after blowing his nose…
- He always sits down when going pee because looking down gives him vertigo…
- He has a secret fetish about being spanked with rhubarb…
- He talks in his sleep, and always about how much he enjoys milking koalas…
- He gets great satisfaction in secretly using other people’s toothbrushes…
- He will when slow-dancing insist on being called “Erica”…
- He will when passing gas, always say, “good one!”…
Or you could simply close your eyes and hope for the best… Your choice of course!
