Oh Baby, Oh baby O
Last night, I arrived at the flat a bit after 8 having gone to the gym. MF (my flatmate) had not been to our flat all weekend and I hadn't spoken to her for a few days. I opened the door slightly listening to determine if she was home. I was greeted by the loud, husky, repetitive sounds of her having an orgasm.
Nothing wrong with the Almighty O. I wish she and I were better acquainted. But its just not what I want to be hearing when I get home, low blood sugar and sweaty in a state of half gym dress half work dress. Turn head towards the bedroom area, and see that her door is actually cracked open 8 inches. Great, I can't then get to my room without passing a scene from an Amsterdam sex show. And of course the continuing screams indicating very good shagging; again yeah for her. But if she had texted me about her entertaining that evening, A she could have timed the shagging to be when I wasn't there and B I could have been better prepared to deal with the unexpected Too Much Information moment. But she didn't.
So, I turn left, go into the living room and kitchen area, quickly turn on some music, shut the door to the hallway and put my things down. My temper is flaring though because I feel I can't even go into my bedroom, where I want to go to dump stuff and change into comfy jammies. But I am, by virtue of wanting to avoid awkward situation, corralled into the western portion of flat. I start cooking dinner, finish dinner, eventually tippy toe to my room, put on more music, and go to bed. At no point do I see FM that night or this morning.
My Personal Life Agenda now has Meet with FM: to discuss last night on it. However, I am not sure really what to say. I need to avoid her button which is telling her what to do. I don't want to sound lecture-ey either. But I do want to bring up our agreement, and that last night made me feel really uncomfortable, kept me out of a portion of our flat, and that it could have been a much less awkward situation if she had let me know beforehand, or if she had asked when I was going to be back at flat. I am just not sure how to say it in a way that won't get an immediate angry reaction. How should I handle this? I need to step away from the hissy fit line, and into the humour playground. Please fill out your comment card….

Was there definitely somebody else in there with her?
Could have been worse they might have come out and expected to chat while you ate your dinner...
Studio flat for just you...maybe?
first, it was too loud to be a self-propelled O. Also, his jacket and trainers were in the room. if this was a typical thing, i would think studio, but it isn't. i just need to find the right way to say pls don't do that again. you are so right about the potential for even more embarrassment!
what if it was spur of the moment should she have said wait just a sec while i text my flat mate? would you? that was not a cool situation but it does come with the teritory relax and be happy for her
ooh, that's a hard one to call. I have 3 housemates and have heard at one point or another, vigorous sounds of enthusiasm coming from their bedrooms. Including at one point, spanking.
I'm not sure there is much you can do, because there's a good chance that she may have been caught a bit unawares at your arrival! Maybe just a quiet word to ask her to keep it down when you're home?
And to keep her door firmly closed in future...
spanking? i think this is a product of my upbringing. well, it has been positively sorted tho. she sent a fishing text that said a friend was coming over tonight, and that she went out last night and was really drunk. i tuxt that i came back to flat amidst her massive orgasm, good for her, could she tell me what sex book she recommends, and thx so much for telling me her friend is coming over tonight.
Outstanding reply to her!
Clearly you have an understanding now and she's good for approaching you first about it. Glad it was sorted.
(Still, I'm here thinking of moving to the UK and considering the flatmate option, but I'm having second thoughts, though!)
Oh my! Came here via a comment on Francesca's blog and I'm sorry to admit that I chorlted into my herbal tea at your dilemma - by the way, what sex book did she recommend? *winks*
Yes, too bad you can't afford your own place, but that would probably be hard in one of the most expensive cities in the world--
I think you will eventually come to an understanding on the "dropping a note"-thing--it's not really THAT hard, and would only take a couple seconds.
Maybe "no late parties on a school night" would be a good "rule," also.
Which ever way it goes--I hope you two work it out. It sounds like you get along well except for this "small" thing.
Personally, I would have walked straight in and asked for an introduction, but that's just me. I laughed at that first comment, btw...
(I have that some paradox you described... weird, isn't it?)
