I recently moved in with two of my close friends from home, they’re both in college at the same school, similar schedules, and similar lifestyles. Whereas I’m in enrolled in beauty school and work a lot during the week. Since the second week we moved in they have been giving me shit for not being at home enough but I’m working or at school most of the time so I don’t understand what’s wrong with that. I’ve asked them to text me when they want to do anything, they refuse to, as well as every time we hang out on the weekend all they want to do is go out to random parties and get drunk. On top of that I don’t feel comfortable when I’m at home so I stay at my boyfriends place coming home only when needed or they ask me to, which is very rare. I feel more controlled by my roomates than I did by my parents, they want to track my location and be in the loop, which is hard for me bc i’m a private person. I just wanted to ask if I’m in the wrong and I need to be home more or if it makes sense that I spend my time working (doordash) or with my boyfriend when they’re just doing school work?

My ummm friend needed a place to land in a hurry.. Not only did I rent a uhaul to take her 4 hours to her old place and get her stuff, but I helped load it too... Then she had the audacity to tell ppl “we” did this and that.. I already told her to stop saying things as if she's a participant in “anything” bc she just sits back and watches EVERYONE else do EVERYTHING and barks orders.. She's 44 and has never done shit for herself.. I knew living with her was going to be hard but fml on this one. I'm not supposed to have ppl here for more than 2 weeks at a time but she has no where to go. I need a break. I'm single, I have a very quiet 16 years old son and she is ALWAYS effin talking. I miss the quiet. Also her car needed a battery and I replaced it (myself of course) and then she asked if I picked up the cigarettes from my tobacco shop. Ummmmmmm I got mine!! This woman is so codependant. She needs me to do everything. I honestly understand why her husband is divorcing her!!

Shitty, lying, in house smoking, stealing, knife threatening roommate is finally moving out. Thank fuck and good riddance. Stole the kitchen, laundry and lounge room lightbulbs after breaking them by leaving them on 24/7. Fun fun fun. What shitty experiences have you had with roommates?

Okay so my roommate is a 20 yr old guy and he is very misogynistic (I wish I knew this sooner) and I didn’t really see it until we moved into an apartment. He will literally explain to me how to sweep something up, he will explain to me how to load a dishwasher, he will explain to me all the little shit that needs to be done but he never does anything. Me and my significant other always clean all of the dishes that he leaves laying around and keep the place looking good but he doesn’t contribute other than mansplaining everything. he will even explain to me how to get my own cat’s attention (keep in mind I have had him for a while).

Ok so my roommate and I for the most part get along. my shifts at work are longer then his, so when I leave for work every morning, he's still asleep, and when I get home from work, he's already home. For the past three to four months, every time I get home he's watching the same exact awful tv show. It's one season and 8 episodes and he's watched it so many times I've lost count. I can quote it at this point! He's always watching it and I hate to be like this, but this show is awful. It's a foreign teen drama that he watches in dubs and the music is overly cinematic to which he plays it at max volume ! The worst part is if I have people over, he'll continue to just lay on the couch and watch, so my friends and I have to go elsewhere. He also uses my Netflix account for some reason so it changes my recommendations and algorithm which is just annoying. I don't know how to bring it up. I personally can't understand how someone could watch the same show over and over again like this.

Same guy who I used to let to advantage of my hospitality. I stopped making coffee after he tried to treat me like Mr. Belvedere "can you make a small pot of coffee " . Also told this jack azz to stop calling me or knocking on my door during the day as I work nights. Still has the nerve to ask me if I have sugar, Splenda. I started telling him no to any requests. This guy looks on my shelf to see what he can mooch so I started keeping my mayo in a plastic bag. Piece of sheet still tries to call me during day. I turn my phone to privacy when I get home in the morning from work and turn it back on when I work my evening shift. Man I can't stand this guy so I tell him no or tune him out because he's too cheap to buy his own sweetener. May sound like I am being spiteful but he ruined coffee for me always asking for sugar and cream. Plus he never cleaned out coffee maker or said thanks like my other grateful roomate. I drink instant now. 2020 is my year to get away from this POS.

So me and one of my closest friends decided to move in to an apartment and Boy has it been a nightmare,. It's a two bedroom apartment, one room I share with my boyfriend and in the other room my friend lives in there. We have been freinds for years now and I never thought it would be so difficult living in with one of your best friends. Talk about being lazy and messy to the point of not bothering to clean period stains or not bothering to flush the toilet after taking a dump. Things went a bit too far when I saw period stains on the kitchen carpet. The thing is , she is quite a sensitive person. I have tried telling her several times to atleast keep the common areas in the house a bit clean mot to put her personal dump around the house, but she doesn't put any heed to it. Things are quite getting on my nerves now and I guess I have to tell her how terribly untidy and messy she is. She can be sensitive other time. Maybe if she wouldn't have been a friend I would have told these stuff the way it is long ago. But right now things are getting quite out of control but I also don't wanna ruin our friendship. But I know she would be hurt if I tell her the inconvenience her laziness and untidiness is causing us

I had the worst male roommate.( I'm female by the way.) My male roommate was very abusive prick He use to hit me all of the time making it seem like it was my fault....i just got lucky today and was able to finally run away

Your roommate never leaves her room, never has groceries and keeps a bucket of soapy water in her bedroom and then every so often dumps out the bedroom window onto the sidewalk...? Asking for a friend.

So I had was put in an unfortunate situation and had to ask my roommate for a ride to the auto part store as my battery was dead. She puts a mat on the floorboard she had left in the sun to dry after washing it. There were water pools still on the mat. I put my old dry cell battery on the mat and we go. Get there but new one put new battery on mat. We get out she sees liquid and was like I think some leaked in the car. Me lifts the battery or my head upside down. I think you're mistaken. Spends the next 2 hours washing the mats just throw throw them away and request me to buy new floor mats.... Bitch got problems.

So my girlfriend and I live with one other person. She's almost 30 and only knows us because she went to high school with my gf. She's noisy, messy, and impossible to have a conversation with but that's not the point. Its the food she eats. I don't think she has a sense of smell or tastebuds.

She cooks the same stuff everyday. Eggo waffles in the morning, something boiled for lunch and then whatever she puts in her crockpot for dinner. The stovetop meal is always rice noodles, frozen meatballs/canned tuna, frozen vegetables and lentils. She boils it till it overflows and burns but its what she adds to her food thats disgusting. After draining it she proceeds to add : mayonnaise, yellow mustard, hot sauce, a boiled egg, pickle juice, honey, and peanuts.

Then there's dinner. She mixes lettuce, dried seaweed, eggs, peanuts, lentils and the pickled stuff she buys and leaves it in the crockpot all day if she's leaving for work. It almost always turns into brown sludge and then she pours it into a bowl and eats it ALL. Sometimes I think its so gross it must be a joke but NO. She even goes to claim that what she eats is healthy and maybe it is when you get down to the facts but that doesn't excuse the fact that she is eating the 21st century equivalent of gruel everyday.

I don't think I have to tell you that it smells worse than shit.

I watch her make and eat this everyday and its ghastly. How does that not taste like absolute trash and how does she think its good when she smells the meals me and my girlfriend cook?

Honestly I hope she sees this and understands that boiling random slop in a pot everyday is not the most exciting way to make delicious meals.

Short story won’t mention anyone or places but only details. I moved out of my home town to be with friends I knew several years ago . At the time we were close friends but since I’ve gotten here they have been nothing more then partying and they just randomly have sex with their so called master . Now when I knew them in my hometown I knew they were submissive and he was their master. But I didn’t know they are slaves pretty much . I was told before I moved I’ll have a place to sleep and I’ll have my own space . But I sleep in a fuck tent in the kitchen cause it was the only way so I could have some privacy cause they all just walk around butt naked . It’s been driving me insane . I’ve never been so creeeped out when you try to eat pizza and your roommates just sucking this dude off . Also they do this orgy or one on one sessions almost every night . I work early morning and I’ve been losing my mind . I can’t sleep I can’t think . And I don’t tell any one cause they going to think I’m just as crazy . And I mean this guy has these girls ask to use the bathroom and if they can eat or talk to someone . Makes me feeel completely out of place . I love kink and bdsm but I do believe in boundaries with roommates . I thought they kept it in the room and just walked around naked cause the girls can’t wear clothes in the house . Also this guy has a huge bass system witch he blairs music threw them like he trying to be at an end concert. Please anyone give me advice

When I moved in I told my flatmates if needed I don't mind if they use my knife set as I got some a nice set (thanks to a blended home), I didn't mind that but then it turned into doing the dishes leaving a growing pile of clean dishes to the side as I don't know what stuff is who's, for them to bring people over and state that it's not their just the others stuff (which is a lie). I also am the only one to clean any dish towel and the stove after I have cooked. I get the post for everyone at least once a week. Yet now they are taking my kitchen supplies, a frying pan, two baking sheets, a lid to a pot, cutlery and other kitchen utensils. I do the bins and clean the sink after they leave food at the bottom of it. They ask me to help them may it be computer problems or to get something at the store. They throw gatherings in our kitchen and don't tell me or invite me to join but ask me to clean up after them the next day. I tried not doing it but that lead to a week of a sticky floor and not being able to use the kitchen surface so I cave. The worst is when they all left for Christmas break and left behind all their dishes and gone off fish in the fridge, which I then had to clean. I'm so happy that I'm not living with them next year but I just want to yell at them when I see them.

I mostly just need to rant here. I (19F) live in a 3 bedroom apartment with 2 other girls, both of whom I work with. We also in total have 5 pets (4 cats & 1 dog). When we first moved in together everything was fine, we were all friendly and everyone cleaned up after themselves, and respected the fact that there were other people living there. But now? Now I'm disgusted everytime I walk in there. I don't/can't spend the night there, and sleep at my boyfriend's house. I got stuck with the middle room and both of them and their significant others are SO loud constantly. One of my roomates ( roomate 1) and her bf sleep all day and stay up all night long, so all night theyre slamming doors and using the microwave and playing video games and watching tv all night. Her bf also really likes singing and they sit right up against the wall to my room. My other roomate ( roomate 2 ) watches t.v. at the loudest possible volume. I swear today our apartment was shaking from the volume of her tv. Not even my noise cancelling headphones + youtube videos/music can drown them out. Then theres the kitchen. Now I'm not denying that I'm a cleaner. I like things to stay neat and organized, however I do know that people make messes and not everyone is like that. But this is something else. Roomate 1 and her bf only eat frozen microwave food and ramen and leave their hot pocket wrappers and ramen trash all over the countera, dont clean any of their dishes, and leave the microwave a complete disaster ( wish I had pictures, but i thought of it after I cleaned the kitchen). Roomate 2 likes to cook and leaves her trash, leftover food, food scraps, dishes, etc., all over the counter and is the messiest cook I've ever met so the stove top is just caked in everything she has cooked. They leave dishes piled up in the sink and don't rinse them out so there's just spoiled food sitting on the counter and in the sink all the time. We also have a dishwasher, so its not even like they really have to hand wash their dishes. The usual reason they leave their trash on the counter is because the trash can is constantly overflowing. Theres four other people living there ( who currently aren't working ), and I am the only one who takes out the trash or cleans at all. Roomate 2 never lets her dog out, so he just poops and pees all over the carpet and she doesn't clean it up. She also doesn't pay any attention to him, but dotes on my cat, which really bothers me. Mostly because shes currently sick with COVID-19, and puts her hands all over my cat. But also because she's just ignoring her own pet. She hardly ever refills his food so I have to remind her. Roomate 1 also leaves her cats out for days at a time, so they are also peeing all over the house. They also go into my room all the time and feed my cat despite me telling them they don't have to do that because I feed him twice a day every single day. Also, its my personal room and both of them have gotten mad at me for letting their pets in their room. This is kind of long and all over the place, but I feel like I can't do anything about it because I work all the time and spend nights at my boyfriends house.

I don't know what to do, she has a Chihuahua it pisses on Everything poops On my bathroom rug everyday and she yells at me when I don't clean it because it's my rug. Then everynight at dinner time he pees on the the dinner table leg runs through it and the jumps on everyone's legs with dog pis feet the jumps on the beds with urin on his feet the sofas ect. She ignores it until urin dries and is not as visible, it smells so disgusting and apparently it's my responsibility to clean it Because I live here too. What do I do???
