Chick posts ad looking for a roommate in a nice neighborhood I'm interested in. I reply and visit. She's like a 7, aka oot 5 aka craigslist 9.5.

Now I'm no Situation or anything, but it was pretty obv. we hit it off pretty well. She got a kick out of my "current reportoire consists of spaghetti" line when asked if I cook. You know, stuff like that, super friendly. I email that night asking a couple questions about the place that I had forgotten. She replies in good detail the next morning. A day and a half later I text her at night asking her to call me (because she's an early riser and I don't want to wake her) she calls a minute later and we have a nice conversation. We agree there's mutual interest and she asks for my availability to meet with the landlord this weekend, presumably to iron out security/lease, details, etc.

One day later I get this text:

Hey MacGuyV - talked to my landlord, he's not cool w me having a male roommate. Came as a total surprise. i'm sorry
I was going to reply with "Is this your landlord or your Dad" but that probly sounds a tad bitter? Meh.

Well, I believe that is against the law if you want to get technical, since most landlord laws have nondiscrimination parts. Depends on how far you want to take it.

My grandmother in law rents out a house to people and she also refuses to let opposite sex people share the house. Some people are just old fashioned I guess.

Sorry I should've been more specific. I'm asking more how to get in this girl's pants from here rather than grabbing this place. Totally not me to beg or complain or sue.

This is like some crappy romantic comedy plot. If the girl is a prostitute let her drive your Lotus. And keep her away from Costanza.

Just tell the landlord you're gay, get another girl to move in with you, and make a sitcom.

are you purposely trying to find a roommate you want to date? or did that just get weird by accident.
