you don't have to be best friends for decent communication, people can be acquaintances like isn't it weird to live with someone that you aren't even like a acquaintance to? That you don't even know a little bit???

I mean if you’re living with each other you will be acquainted with them. But that doesn’t mean you always have to say hello and bye, and force conversation. It’s not awkward to coexist silently. Ppl just think it’s awkward bc they’re not comfortable w silence. Friendships should happen naturally, you shouldn’t have to force it.

I can kind of understand where you're coming from, but you dont have to be friends with someone to at least have some type of connection that is somewhat comfortable especially considering it's so easy to look at each other like strangers.. dorms are small and being in a room with someone you don't even talk to is just weird, I'm not saying to constantly force a friendship, people can have acquaintances that they don't deeply connect with and still feel at least more comfortable around

Earlier I asked my roommate a question and she slammed the door in my face. Genuinely don’t know why she did that as I didn’t even ask a rude question.

You don’t have to be best friends but the bare minimum is a hello here and there - you’re literally LIVING together

A little small talk will NOT kill you jesus

I didn’t say you couldn’t make small talk I just said why make it an obligation in the first place.

I agree with you. I lived with 3 girls I was extremely quiet. I was 17 at the time. I would say hi no matter what. They still thought I was too quiet and got mad at me. “ you don’t even want to smoke with us or party. You hate us” I straight up told them that I struggled with social anxiety and I was kicked out a week ago and I had a hard time in general. They always thought about themselves. I stated I did like them. We don’t have to follow what other people want us to do.

I think we’re actually agreeing. Being acquainted w someone kind of falls within the category of have a comfortable connection w someone. I was saying you shouldn’t have to force anything beyond that. Which is really what we both said.

If you live with them you will be acquainted with them naturally, I’m not saying you can’t talk to them at all. But sometimes ppl do really make you feel bad for not being in the mood to talk, being quieter, etc.

I wasn’t saying you have to. But actually acknowledging me would be nice that way I feel like i’m actually welcome. No one said “you have to do this” “you have to say this” “you have to be like this” I don’t mind if they’re quiet and introvert. But theres a difference between being introvert and just completely ignoring someone

Anonymous #20 7w

The difference is that you actually say hi, I’m saying my roommates don’t. I have nothing against them and all I was saying was that just saying hi is already enough, I don’t mind if you don’t like talking which is fine but just a simple smile or smirk is more than enough

Anonymous #2 7w

I totally get that, in my comment I was only specifically talking about a simple hi or smile. A simple smile or smirk is more than enough. They havent said a word to me ever since the first move in day. All I was saying was just acknowledging that I’m also here too is more than enough

Shyness is not something to be overlooked at. I completely understand if people are more nervous than others and if you’re not comfortable with small talk. In my comment I was mostly just stating that acknowledging me, like giving even a little smile, is more than enough to let me know that you’re fine being here. I’m not going to rush anyone to do something they don’t want to do. I use to be shy also but there’s a difference between being shy and ignoring someone.

I completely understand, I was mostly just saying that a simple hi or smile is more than enough. I never once said that being friends is something that we have to do. But just acknowledging that I’m here is enough

Firstly I didn’t mean to sound rude while explaining. I never said I wanted them to make the first move. I’ve tried talking to them, I’ve asked questions, I’ve introduced myself and I say hi all the time. There was no need to be rude about it. Maybe some parts of my explaining may sound harsh but I promise I don’t mean any harm. I was just asking others if their roommates are the same.

Anonymous OP 7w

Well there you go then, you’ve talked and they haven’t said much. When you ranted about it your original comment it comes off as if your roommate was purposefully ignoring you, and you wanted others to agree; thus the next action would be to see if it’s ignorance or just plain avoidance/shyness. At the end of the day you’re living with this person and if you’re fine with how they operate with you, then I don’t see any point in keep replying to others and trying to defend yourself.

Anonymous #24 7w

Yeah I was clearly just asking if other roommates were the same. And I’m also not trying to “defend” myself but I’m just giving a more detailed explanation on my roommates and how theyre quiet. And since you do see me replying I said in one comment that they shut the door in my face when I asked a question. To me it really odd not really rude but just odd.

You never know, maybe she doesn’t have friends at home, maybe she has autism, you never know what’s going on in someone’s life. Give grace and be kind.
