yall i need advise on confronting my roommate...she not only has ignored my boundaries but there are also double standards when she sets her own boundaries (ex. telling me my boyfriend can't stay past 11 but having guests over past 11) (more in comments)

The double standards is an easy fix: just refuse her rules and tell her that unless she starts putting the same restrictions on herself and her guests you will continue to do exactly what she does. As for boundaries, you have to start enforcing them. She keeps taking your stuff, make said stuff unavailable to her. She won’t quiet down at night, file a noise complaint. If having basic respect for yourself “starts beef” with her, then she’s someone who thrives on others being doormats
