Bad Roommate


Question Posted Friday January 22 2010, 2:09 am

I am having issues with my roommate, and we have only been living together for a week. We met in class, and she asked if I needed a roommate. She seemed like a very nice person- very helpful, studious, friendly...but now that we live together, I am seeing a very different side of her, and I cannot stand it.

For one thing, she is incredibly critical of many things, no matter how miniscule the issue. She is incredibly cheap as well- EVERYTIME, literally EVERYTIME we've gone out to eat, she obsesses over the bill, how much tip we should pay, if we overpayed, etc., etc., she is SUCH a perfectionist in so many aspects, and will count down to the last cent. It's ridiculous. AND, to top things off, it seems she has ulterior motives, and it really gets to me. We have a few classes together, and out of the BLUE, NOWHWERE, she asked if i was going to switch sections for one class, OBVIOUSLY because she didn't want to spend all day in class with me, then come home and see me again...well, guess what, I don't want to see her all day either.

SHe will smile, and give you puppy dog eyes, and to the outsider, she's absolutely wonderful, but once you see her true colors, it's a different story. Say she wants something- she WILL find a way to get it, with a smile and kind eyes, of course, very sneaky little snake, she is. I am stressed out enough as it is, and to have to deal with her shit is too much to handle. In short, she is stingy as hell, a total perfectionist, has a crapload of ulterior motives, all behind her "niceness." WHAT DO I DO??

Start looking to move.

The stress of moving isn't so bad as the stress of living there. Take a look at the contract you signed and figure out when you can get out. If you didn't sign a contract, most states tenant agreements would require you to give 60 days notice.

In the meantime, don't eat with her, and switch sections. I mean, why not switch sections? Yes, it's a pain to give in to her horrible behavoir, but it's less of a pain then actually putting up with her more than nessicary.

So, give notice and start counting down your 60 days, or figuring out how to otherwise break the lease and find a replacement roomie for the nutbag, and in the mean time, do everything reasonable to keep the peace.
