    Neurosis, as defined by Dictionary.com

    A functional disorder in which feelings of anxiety, obsessional thoughts, compulsive acts, and physical complaints without objective evidence of disease, in various degrees and patterns, dominate the personality

    I truly fail to see how anyone, other than the "tenant" you're referring to, has neurosis. Care to elaborate?

    Or perhaps explain why the tenant agreed to buy a house without inspecting the attic or roof? That ought to be quite the story in itself.

    Boattown, an awful lot of people come here trying to get us to do their homework. Your question might come across that way, especially since you haven't told us your specific interest in the case. You're presenting it from a distance which can make people suspicious, not neurotic. I chose to answer because if this one is homework, it's a good one. :)

    This8384, watch out for mud! :)

    Oh, thank goodness... I thought that was something else on my shoe :)

    I'm still very curious as to how the "slew of unexplained medical conditions" was magically diagnosed between 4:58pm yesterday and 11:17am today.

    And also, why the OP keeps skipping over my questions, such as:
    How long have the "tenants" been living with bats?
    Or
    Who made this determination that the attic & ceilings need replacement? Did the tenants have someone inspect the house?
    Or
    Why did they sign a contract prior to inspecting the property?

    <shrug> It could be one of several reasons. Maybe they don't know all the details (if they're asking for someone else). Maybe they're embarrassed (if asking for himself). Maybe the professor didn't give enough details (if it's homework). :)

    Your response proves my point EXACTLY - you don’t know when to stop. You fit the definition verbatim. Thank you for holding the mirror up to yourself.

    By the way, you’re way off the mark with your assumptions. You obviously did not read the entire thread, and I don’t have time to “entertain” your beliefs.

    Please - stop now.

    Aww, that's cute... you think you're threatening me! :o Still don't know what definition I'm fitting, but okay...

    And yes, I did read the entire thread which is why you don't make any sense.

    So please - either tell the full story or move along, lil' rabbit.



    P.S. Isn't the italics option cool? ;)

    No nerve struck :D I'm actually quite enjoying this. You know, the whole you-make-up-a-ridiculous-story, I-ask-pertinent-questions, you-continue-to-babble-incessantly, I-start-laughing-at-what-a-joke-your-story-is, you-start-trying-to-use-big-words thing we have going on. It's fun, really :)

    Btw, do you actually know what neurosis is?

    You'd better log off here before your mom comes in your room and tells you to finish your homework, honey :) We here at AMHD don't want you getting grounded, now do we?

    Lil rabbit? If I had any doubt about your sincerity and age you just answered my questions.

    Inappropriate and time to close - and, yes, I do think OP has bats in the attic.
