my roommate has no friends of her own and literally follows me around everywhere she takes everything personally so i feel bad saying she cant come and on top of that she literally rolls around in her sleep and it sounds like shes fighting demons

well u can’t shame her for the sleep thing she’s not even conscious to control it… the other things are valid tho however kindness goes a long way you don’t have to bring her everywhere but maybe include her in group activities so she can make her own friends and venture off

just adding to my thought since OP hasn’t responded: A lot of people who enter college with no friends are excited to have a roommate to hangout with and form a friendship with. That doesn’t mean your automatically obligated to however you could just simply consider her position if u were in her shoes and had no friends and she had a group she never wanted you apart of. just mean girl energy tbh. that’s all hope you have a great day:)

i feel like its not mean to expect a tiny bit of personal space with someone i share a room with nevertheless i wouldnt mind if she tried making her own friends and was struggling but shes just completely content to have me as her only friend i also should have put in the original post that she doesnt like to go out, stay up late, etc so ill make plans with my friends and she'll guilt trip me into cancelling because she "doesnt want to go" and "doesnt want to be alone"

should have said it better but shes awake when she does it its her way of flipping to the other side i honestly think shes just heavy handed because she also slams doors and i dont think its on purpose lol

she is choosing to have no other friends which is the most annoying bit id be content to share the same friend group and ive introduced many of my friends but she always makes some off-handed comment 😐

she might’ve just been raised a bit more sheltered then most and again i totally get it to not want her everywhere at the end of the day that’s on her for not wanting to make the effort when you actually invite her out i honestly think it sounds like ur her default friend because she doesn’t know how to make any or is insecure abt it either way not on u you’ve done what you could best advice i would say is to just kindly let her know that you appreciate how much she wants to hang but that you 1/
