question about roommate

Post Reply New Topic

ok. i have three roommates, one girl, two guys. I get along fine with the guys. The girl wants me to move out. I can't afford to, i don't want to, and the guys are backing me on not moving out. I haven't done anything, she just doesn't like me.

Now either I am paranoid, or she has started geurilla warfare in an effort to get me to move out. She thinks i am OCD, because that is all the trust I placed in her when I moved in. I am not, though I have tendencies I mostly ignore. I have started to notice little things. Like my books moved out of place/order on my shelf in the living room. My pill bottles(3 - seizures, folic acid and a vitamin), which are on top of the microwave, keep getting tipped over (after 5 months of sitting there unmolested) I can't move the bottles, because if I move them away from the fridge, i'll forget to take them. She has bleached two of my nice towels (i keep my laundry seperate from hers, they just happened to be hanging in the bathroom on two seperate days that she cleaned). and before someone says well she cleans, what do i do, this girl leaves her dirty clothes on the floor of the only bathroom inside-out, with the inside of her underwear showing for almost a week before picking it up. And I used to do everyone's dishes, before she tried to show me how to dishes "the correct way," now i just do my own.

Now besides the towels, which is actual destruction of my property, I just readjust my stuff and move on, but am I paranoid or does anyone else think my roomate is trying to force me out. (oh yes, the old roommate who actually is badly OCD left because she said she just couldn't live with this girl anymore)

These things often happen with roommates. Have you tried just having a frank discussion with her? That's usually the most helpful thing.
You don't want to turn your home into a warzone over some petty things. These are just issues you need to find a compromise for. I wouldn't move out, these types of things almost always come up, even if you're really good friends with your roommate.

I have a cousin who just started college in September, 2007 and after the Christmas holiday break, she got her third roommate
change. Finally, she has a roommate who is not selfish, rude, inconsiderate of others and impossible to live with!

Obviously, the previous roommate found the situation too unbearable to deal with and got the "hell" out of there...if at all possible, you should too. Life is too short...and not worth the stress of dealing with such individuals.
