What the **** is this about

So now that I've graduated and have a job, I want to leave home and find a house/flat share with other graduates of a similar age and situation. I would rather die than live alone, so this is really the only option for me to leave home. I started looking at places last year and I can't believe what a piss take the whole thing is. On probably around 7 or 8 occasions now, I have responded to an advert, viewed the house, met at least one of the existing housemates, and sent them a message saying that I would like to take the room in question; only to either: Never hear from them ever again Be told that the room has 'already been taken by someone else' (an obvious lie, as their advert is still online) Be told that they 'don't think I would fit in' This is disgusting; these people are judging me negatively based on spending less than five minutes with me. I am decent looking, well dressed, and have outstanding personal hygeine. There isn't anything that they could possibly dislike about me. I have lived in many house shares when I was at University and I was always popular and well-liked. I hardly say much at all when I visit a house, so they have no reason at all to take a dislike to me. What the **** is going on??
