My roommate lights candles in the dorm when they’re not allowed in the dorm for safety reasons and I hate her so I feel like I want to tell the RA

as somebody who got displaced and whose friends' belongings were destroyed by flooding after a single candle set a fire in my floor, tell your RA. rather have a spiteful roommate than lose everything you own

100% tell your RA. If for no other reason than if they find out somehow there’s a candle in the room you will get in trouble for it too

ohhh noooooo let's snitch on my roommate for lighting a candle. be a damn adult now. doesn't matter if you don't like her, snitching is petty and will open the door for her to be even worse

Not when I’d get in trouble and she’s trying to mask her weed smell in the dorm on purpose, she’s done way worse things I’m here to rant about my roommate not hear you lecture about being an adult when I’ve already done everything on my part.

That’s what I’m scared of, I’m usually always out of the room and my passports and everything that I generally don’t bring to class with me is in there. I don’t want her making a dumb mistake and suddenly there’s a fire

u can rant about somebody without snitching. u can also rant and be frustrated with somebody while also being adult and coexisting

You can also be an adult and - not do drugs in a shared space (esp considering they’re still illegal in some states) - not break a massive rule and risk getting your roommate fined or kicked out of housing - not have a fire hazard in the dorm - not have to be told to stop breaking safety rules, you should respect your roommate enough to follow them THATS being an adult. THAT what that means. Snitching ain’t childish, it’s what you have to do when dealing with a child

Thank you, I definitely agree and there’s a difference between snitching and having to tell someone because of safety reasons. Yes I do hate her but with my belongings and safety being on the line there’s an RA for these things for a reason.
