How do I tell me roommate that our room smells musty? I changed my sheets yesterday and cleaned our entire room but it still has a musty smell to it and it’s driving me insane and I think it’s them but I don’t want to be rude

You can say it smells stale or stuffy, blame it on the circulation, get some windows open and run a fan, then get some scented stuff and gently suggest they clean their sheets or whatev

I shower everyday and shave once a week but she only showers when she feels like it and I told her at the beginning of the year that one hard rule I had was for her to shower at least once a day 🫩

that’s weird, first of all i don’t need to know how often you shave, second of all just be mean to her and eventually she will

Thank you so much. I never thought of this since our dorm windows don’t open. I’ll tell her gently because she’s so sweet and nice ☹️
