Red alert! Roommate problems that go ‘Unchecked’ - 1

Let me nail it! Being a nice roommate costs a lot, but not one’s peace and privacy! Kicking off a roommate, after undergoing her torments (megalomaniac) , I wanted to rant about some of the common roommate problems that go unchecked. Also such roommate issues sit lightly on our heads, when they start up! Never let the source of such issues to eat up your heads later!

“Why can’t someone let her know that she’s mean?”

 Way out: I was paired up with one such thing! So, why to take the pain of being nice to her every time she hurts me? I don’t expect her to be my friend. I just ignore her, even if she's blue.

#1 I believe that it’s good to turn your back on them, rather than offering a soothing “ego therapy” or “massage”!

“You know he’s not going to respect your personal space”

 Way out: Paired with a person who kept coughing three weeks straight, I realized that I need to confront it, rather than taking too much of it. They sound not only like a 70 year old, but make they aren’t aware that they end up exploiting our sleep!

#1 I know that I’m not some unicorn princess to cast some magic. All did was doing the talking. But in a nice fashion!

“I may not be a germaphobe, but facing a heartless slob…!”

Way out: She was way too sloppy, throwing her clothes all over the bed. I felt it too hard to shut my eyes, when her dirty socks lurk on my bed.

#1 I stopped my Cinderella act and stashed her socks under her pillows. By chance, if I find the Tuna sandwich lying helplessly on the floor, I immediately made her bed as its shelter!

These might seem trivial, but only such common roommate problems turn out into nightmare. I might be even in the middle something, but I learnt to check such issues!
