Ok so im in my 1st year of college and i live on residence with 3 other girls.
The one girl is in my program and at the begining of the year we have been realy close. But now, she wont even speak to me. She tries to exclude me from everything possible. Ive even heard her talk about me behind my back to one of my other roomies and some classmates. Its not even like something was said or we got into a fight shes just gotten into some mood.
I cant talk to her becaus she wont give me the time of day and i have to live with her for another 2 months.
What do i do?
well im all for peace so you should confront her..dont even ask her just stop her somewhere and say something like "hey i know ur probably busy but could we please tlk for a minute?"
you probably did something unintetionally that hurt her feelings. some people keep stupid things bottled in that just burst out in bad actions like talking about others behind their back. you could ask your other roomates to help you and figure out what happened. if none of this works i say you just try to survive those 2 months. its not like she's irreplaceable and if you're worried about rumors spread..just dont worry about it cuz if you're yourself and others like you for it i dont think she can change what others think of you.

But if nothing else works just say in a calm firm way that you dont know why shes mad at you but if you did anything to upset her that your sorry. Then after that just dont try to talk to her anymore until you or her moves out. If she starts talking to you again then calmly ask her why she was mad. I know it hurts to lose a friend but you did your part for apoligizing and you dont even know if you did anything or not. I hope things get better for you both.

Don't let her think she's important enough to you to consume you time and thoughts. If she won't discuss the problem with you, then she's juvenile and spiteful. Get on with your life. You have more important things to concentrate on than an immature roommate. [ Smartone's advice column | Ask Smartone A Question ]

Just be the bigger person. And by doing this she will just hate you more OR you will be good friends again. Just give it a shot. Hope every thing works out. From the man
