Aw, that sounds awful. I was in a mixed sex flat in my first year of uni as well, and though we were 4 girls and 3 guys, after a couple of weeks I started wishing I had opted for single sex because the guys were incredibly messy and used other people's food / stuff all the time so the atmosphere in the flat wasn't great. I'm not a very tidy person and I've lived with women who are not particularly tidy, but nothing matches a teenage boy's sense of entitlement and complete disregard for other people's feelings. I'm always surprised that guys like this manage to find girlfriends who aren't driven mad by their messiness / the constant need to be their mother and clean up after them.
