There have been many strange cases that people have encountered when they want to rent or buy a house. These incidents are especially common when landlords or roommates make sometimes unusual and bizarre demands of their potential tenants. This time, a woman, who was looking for a house in Gurugram, faced a similar situation when a potential tenant rejected her because she was in a serious relationship with her boyfriend. User Shivangi Shah shared to X a screenshot of a conversation she had with a Gurugram-based woman on Facebook group 'Flat and flatmates (Gurgaon)'.
In the post, the tenant can be seen asking Ms Shah about her love life and whether she was in a serious relationship with her boyfriend. The conversation begins with the tenant asking Mrs. Shah if she has “a date.” Thinking the question was regarding her move date, Ms. Shah responded by saying she could move in the last week of December or the first week of January.
