My roommate left this weekend and it’s funny how I’ve been able to sleep better, my nerves aren’t going crazy, and I’m not always on edge

No way you guys are hating on my replies 😂. I literally just offered a solution of the bare minimum which has not been done. Yall must just be lazy and refuse to face adversity because you never have before 😂

They maybe you shouldn’t live with a roommate. If you can’t afford that, maybe find a new roommate or a different space to live in.

I’ll be living alone next year! I was supposed to live with my friend but she became an RA last minute so I got stuck with a random

Yeah maybe I’m aware of that?? You don’t know my situation and I’m not making my parents pay more for my room and board than they already do. Besides I’m living alone next year anyways

That’s why I said you could find a new roommate which doesn’t cost more. No need to be aggressive… obviously idk what you’re going through that’s why I included an option that isn’t based on affordability. Have you tried contacting your Residence Life or communicated with your roommate? Even just saying something like, “it’s nothing against you, I just hate sharing a room with someone,” might help to improve your living situation. Don’t post sumn like this on yikyak if you don’t want help.

You should just talk to your friend about getting in contact with residence life to change roommates then. Clearly this is a roommate issue and not a living with others issue. No idea what your roommate has done, but you haven’t done anything to make it better so why let yourself suffer. I get it, you might be going through something or just are not good with this type of communication… but this is life… and you gotta do something to get something. It might seem hard now but it’ll get better.

It’s basically just scraping the surface of what living in a society means idk what you’re talkin about “too deep.” If you’re not happy with how you’re living, do what you can in your power to make living happier. It’s a pretty simple concept but i understand why it can be difficult to execute. I’m just offering a solution with supportive encouragement to try and be productive about these types of problems. Not everyone has grown up experiencing these types of adversities in life.

That’s what I’m saying!! I’m literally trying to be respectful here 😭. I think some people just do not have the drive to make their lives better and would rather feel validated by strangers online than dealing with their problems. I’ll even admit that I too have been there… but I had to wise up and learn how to live. You can’t go through life expecting to be saved, you need to do some shit yourself.

Here’s the thing you don’t know. You don’t know that I talked to the RA, I talked to the housing coordinator, I made a roommate agreement, yet my roommate still doesn’t follow anything and still acts the way they do. I already asked to switch rooms and they DON’T LET ME. I tried everything and all of die as comment on my post about how I feel at ease when she’s not in here which I’m sure a lot of people feel? I don’t know why you’re so worked up about my post and replying to everyone. I

Right like this commentor is really on the roommate rants where EVERYONE is ranting about their roommates but suddenly decides to target me for no reason 😭 And plus they have absolutely no idea what I’ve been through to get things to work between my roommate and doesn’t even know me
