Back in college, there was this guy I [23, at this time] hooked up with a couple of times. Things didn’t work out on a sexual/romantic level, but we got along great and became friends. Still are. He lived by himself in this great, two-bedroom house, cheap rent, close to campus, but it was also on the other side, away from the rest of the madness, so the neighborhood was quiet. It was owned by this sweet, conservative couple who lived across the street. They were really strict about noise and parties, though.
