Was 5 days a reasonable time
No I would notice immediatly
No I would notice in a day or 2 that I had not seen the deceased
Yes that is a good response time and probably the average
I would pretend nothing was amiss and hopefully they would just rot into a soup
I live alone and doubt anyone would notice MY death

This poster in the ladies thread took 5 days to notice, is this quick, slow or just right.

Forget about that bull poo poo and marvel at the fact that someone was so incredibly milquetoast that she could not bring herself to knock on her roommates door at any point during the 5 day period and see if he was ok. Its loving mind blowing

I like my roommate alright but really enjoy it when the apartment is empty so it might take like a week for me until it starts to smell because I would not really ask any questions

The problem is the rotting and horrible smell starts much sooner than 5 days so to not notice it for that long is really impressive :D

Well when you've got your 1br apartment filled to the brim with cat poo poo, even a corpse can be hidden by the stench, I guess. :shrug:

I guess if by "flatmate" she means "casual acquaintance that I never talk to & lives in a separate wing of the palace as me" I can see how that could happen.

I live on the first floor of a three story house and the master bedroom is really far away from me on the top floor. If the guy that owned the house kicked it I probably wouldn't notice for days because I already can go like a week without seeing him and I have no reason to ever go upstairs.

I hope he doesn't die because my rent is super cheap. :ohdear:

Be brave.



Something similar happened to my friend's brother in college. He lived in an apartment-style dorm with about half a dozen roommates. Apparently one of them was a weirdo who rarely left his room and wasn't really friends with anyone. The guy died somehow, it took them like a week to notice.

loving lol at the chick in the OP though, if she knew the dude for 20 years it's p. shameful that she didn't notice him until he started to stink up the joint.

I would notice around 12am if my Jewess roommate died because she posts pictures of her disgusting looking food every god drat night on Facebook . I would notice if my other roommate died about 15 minutes after I post a status about anything and not receiving a like from her.
