Roomies!

[piplover]

Well, my old roomate moved out a few days ago, and I already have a new one. And let me tell you, I truly believe she is bent on driving me crazy.
I came home for lunch and found that she had rearanged all my bowls! I had to jump up on the counter to grab one, and I am not in good jumping condition of late.
Last night she went through the cupboards and the fridge, looking for food. My food! That I paid for! She has a meal card, she has a paycheck, she can bloody well go buy her own food! It's not like she just got here, she's been staying in a different room for the past two weeks!
And now she is tearing down my shower curtain, that I picked out and paid for, and putting her's up. And this is only her second day here!
I know I have to confront her on this, and I want to be nice to her, but she is already getting on my nerves. She's young, only 19, and in a different unit, but I still have to live with her. Grrrrrrr.
*sigh*
I hate having a roomate sometimes.

Eew... I was lucky with my college roommate--we didn't have any problems until the last week, when we were both stressed from exams, etc. We're both very non-confrontational, so we let it get out of hand because neither wanted to bring the problem up. How long will you have to live with her? I hope you can work things out! She has no reason to rearrange and replace your things....

I have to live with her until one or both of us get deployed, which could be anywhere from three to six months.

I would say her bahaviour is downright rude! If she want`s to change things, she could talk to you first, or at the very least told you what she had done, aksing if it was all right with you.

Talk to her and hopefully she`ll not do it again.

Best of luck! *hugs*

I'm going to, but I dread it. For being a soldier, I am very nonconfrontational.

Stand up for yourself, Pip. Those are your things, and you were there first. *hugs*

Tell her you don't appreciate it! And if that doesn't work...kick her out!!

reminds me a bit of my roommate from college...-you really want to be nice to her ? I could not do that, I would tell her exactly how I feel. After all you did nothing wrong, it's her ! Sometimes it needs a storm to chase the clouds away.
