My Roommate Part 1

In Feb­ru­ary of this year, things were really get­ting bad at my mom’s place. I was an emo­tional wreck, my mom’s live in boyfriend was at my throat all of the time, and I would be away from the house as long as I could. One day, after get­ting into a really heated argu­ment, I texted a friend of mine to see if I could move in with her. She agreed and I was moved out of my mom’s in a mat­ter of hours.
I have known this friend for a lit­tle over six months by the time this all went down. We have got­ten fairly close to one another dur­ing this time…

Ghost Roommate (For College Freshmen)

After read­ing a rather whiny post I fig­ure I briefly share my room mate expe­ri­ence because I think it to be interesting.

I say my first room­mate expe­ri­ence was “inter­est­ing” mainly because, the way TV por­trays (Real Life, Jer­sey Shore, etc) the idea of hav­ing a room­mate or maybe just my wish of an ideal room­mate (not so dra­matic as real­ity tv but some­thing between friend and enemy) was so far off. I would cla**ify it as Ghost Roommate.

I’m easy going, bit quiet but recep­tive. We did have some dif­fer­ences: me being a city boy, him a coun­try bump­kin, video game geek (me too to a lesser extent) — I’m black, he’s…

Lil’ Miss. Rich

I am a Fresh­man in col­lege liv­ing in a quad. Two fo my room­mates I get along fine with: we talk and share items and have run in to no big prob­lems liv­ing with each other. But Hanna, she’s a dif­fer­ent story. She seemed alright when we were tex­ting before the year started and even at the begin­ing of it. But as the year went on she grew purely intol­er­a­ble. First off she has ALOT of money, enough that her par­ents can put her through med school with­out her need­ing to work. Now I could really care less about her finan­cial sit­u­a­tion but SHE seems to want to tell every­body about…

Porno queen

I rented a room to a per­son I thought was a friend. She worked at one of the local hos­pi­tals and I thought it would be an ideal sit­u­a­tion. The first week­end she was here she met a guy at a local bar after work and brought him back to her room. Where they pro­ceeded to down 1/2 case of beer. She then brought a dif­fer­ent guy home the next night who she later informed me was mar­ried and they needed a place to meet. My house would be great. I told her to be out of my home by the end of the week or I would tell the guys wife. She…

MY ROOMMATE

I really don’t know where to begin . This semes­ter , I have got­ten the worst room­mate ever. He is so con­ceded, here is one of his many things he does he pur­posily uses words that other peo­ple don’t know then asked do you know what that means . Its like really dude if 20 other peo­ple who have talked to doen­snt know what some­thing means you say it , maybe you should just use the lay­mans def­i­n­i­tion . The other day, not that he has only done this once , but he asked me about what I think about the Isreal inva­sion on Pales­tine . Well , lets see here , I have…

Cat Urine

I am cur­rently housed with three adult house­mates plus two chil­dren, one child is my own (I am a single-mom).
We live in Seat­tle.
The oth­ers are a mar­ried cou­ple plus the other child and there’s a single guy.

Plagued by cat urine…
When I first moved in over a year ago every­thing was about the same but not as bad.
House­mate A, the cat owner: mar­ried adult man has a cat, her name is Grrrr and before I moved in every­one believed she was a he but upon get­ting him neutered the vet announced he was a she. Before this trip to the vet the cat had always had trou­bles…

horrible roommate story: bash bash

well i’m going into my sec­ond year of col­lege and haven’t had a roo­mate yet (crosses fin­gers). i have a story that will beat all of you guys, though. 1st semes­ter fresh­man year i walk into my hall­way and there is a huge pud­dle of blood in front of my dorm room and trail­ing down the hall. need­less to say, i was grossed out and thought some­one had their period in front of my door (dorm bath­rooms and liv­ing with numer­ous girls will make you think that way). it’s a fairly small cam­pus so word spread about what had really hap­pend. the two girls in the room diag­o­nal from me had got­ten into a…

first, liv­ing on cam­pus at col­lege sucks.
sec­ond, get­ting stuck with the worst room­mate in the world evar! sucks even more.

this **** is getting old.

idk what to do. how can i make him shower?! other then shoot­ing him in the neck with a tranq gun and drag­ging him in there.

and the worst part is, he tries to cover it up with that BOD ****. wtf.

Crazy J

For my first year of col­lege I had an absolute witch for a room­mate. An exam­ple: My best friend had made the deci­sion that he would drive three hours north to see me for *his* birth­day, because he couldn’t envi­sion spend­ing it with any­one but me. I was touched, so I thought it would be a nice ges­ture on my part to dec­o­rate my dorm room with bal­loons and crate paper as well as pur­chase a spe­cially made Baskin Robins birth­day cake. I headed to the local party store with every inten­tion to get a sim­ple bal­loon and crate paper com­bi­na­tion, but after arriv­ing at the store, real­ized that I wanted a theme, and…

AIDS Mail

Ok, this story takes place back in the early 80’s. Things were a lit­tle dif­fer­ent back then. For exam­ple, email did not exist. Impor­tant doc­u­ments were sent by mail. So when I had a rou­tine test done to check for HIV/AIDS, the results were sent by mail.

Let me add right here that my col­lege room­mate had it in for me. Basi­cally she was in LOVE with my boyfriend and was obvi­ously jeal­ous that he was dat­ing me and not her.

Back to the story… my room­mate picked up the mail one day before I got home. She knew I was expect­ing some impor­tant med­ical results any day now. She went through my…
