reimeivn Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 so to start with, i do art, and i have opinions about pretty much everything. my roommate is mad at me for the fact that i dont think sorority is a very good thing for art major people. fact? all of the people in the top dont do sorority, and the people who belongs to sorority are at the bottom of the class. its not about time, its about focusing on what you do. being in a sorority, it doesnt help. its hard to explain to somebody who has such a laid back major and dont do art. so she was pissed off i guess, she told me that i want to careful being blunt because that makes a lot of people mad. i dont be blunt to people i am not super close with, just so you know. earlier in the day she suggested a cleaning schedule which i didnt care much about. i am quite different from her, i have been living off campus for a long time and cleaning not just my space but the entire house for all my life, so i dont care her writing down the schedule. i said, just write it, i dont care really about how much time i have to commit to it or things like that. just post it on my door. she was like, because my ex roommate didnt do it, are you gonna do it? well i told her to clean this saturday, she went party and forgot about it. the kitchen i had to clean all the time after her, and throw the trash out. today it smelled because i didnt have time to throw it out just yet. she said that its because of my dishes, which i wash everyday but i cook every meal so i always have some stay half washed. guaranteed that theres no smell. so yeah, i am not happy with it, and i dont think the schedule would work. come on, she didnt clean her own space at home. this is like playing house. i wonder how long it would last. she just kinda broke up with the guy she was kinda dating while dating a guy long distant. he already got a date lined up. now she is home a lot since theres no one to hang out with her anymore. i guess that makes her mad a bit. i guess i ll send an email say hey, sorry if i offended you. to be honest i dont care. she is the one who needs to learn how to live on her own, i dont. i am fine with whatever. just set all the rules i ll follow all of them. i have been running all the errands since we lived together and last time when she had to drop a check off she was mad. i thought wtf, i dont even have a car and i do that like 4 5 times per month. but i dint say anything. i didnt care.
wilsonx Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Ahhh, roommate conflicts. I was an RA for my last 2 years of school and this was my least favorite thing to deal with. One thing I will say is that people are entitled to their own opinion about things. Sometimes for the greater good, its best to just keep your opinions that "would/.could" offend others to yourself because they are entitled to their own opinions. You can agree to disagree and end any sort of argument and walk away at any time. As far as agreements go, write up a roommate contract and work out the details amongst yourselves and BOTH of you come up with compromises that BOTH of you agree on and will follow
Author reimeivn Posted September 25, 2011 Author Posted September 25, 2011 ok guys so i sent her an email to apologize if i offended her in any way and she ignored it. i mean that is kinda rude. but yeah whatever she wants, i dont care really. like to play house, sure. somebody said something last night about smart asian girl living with stupid sorority roommate. i dont think she is stupid but she definitely dont have the sympathy.
triphopper414 Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Don't worry about it. Your roommate seems like she has a stick up her butt. She will get over it.
