🏠 You are a terrible roommate. Let me help you! 🏠
Are you stuck living with a terrible roommate? Is the thought of going back to your shared living space filling you with dread? Don’t worry, I’ve been there too. My freshman year of college, I was stuck with a highly incompatible roommate, but I found a way out. Let me share my elaborate and extremely petty revenge story with you and show you how I got to move out.
## The Players
– Me
– Colleen – my roommate
– Karen – friends with Colleen, roommates with Svetlana
– Svetlana – Karen’s roommate, close friends with Dasha
– Dasha – lived on a different floor with a truly awful roommate
– Jane – my friend and future roommate
– Bonnie – Jane’s roommate with mental health struggles
## The Struggles
– Me and Colleen – very incompatible and she was very shitty about it
– Karen and Svetlana had no problems living together at all
– Bonnie’s mental health issues meant that it was not the right time for her to share a room with anyone
– Dasha’s roommate was having similar struggles but refused to recognize them as such and blamed Dasha for absolutely wild and untrue things
## The Revenge
I knew from Day 1 that I did not like living with Colleen but got close to others on my hall quickly and wanted to stay. So, while I was cordial to her, things got increasingly volatile and the thing that broke me was when I went to bed one night at around 10 and she, Karen, and another friend busted into our room, turned on the lights, and started having a dance party with the sole purpose of laughing at me and telling me I was a loser for sleeping.
### The Plan
The following day, Jane told me Bonnie was moving to a “psycho single,” and she worried about who would move in. That’s when the plan came to me, fully baked. I suggested to Colleen and Karen that Karen could move in and be Colleen’s roommate, and Dasha could move in with Svetlana.
### The Execution
Karen, being a people pleaser, couldn’t resist helping Dasha and making Colleen happy. They spoke with the RA, and by that evening, Dasha was living with Svetlana, Karen and Colleen were together, and Jane and I had our own room.
### The Aftermath
Karen realized what a nightmare Colleen was and spent the rest of the year miserable but was too much of a people pleaser to say anything about it. During graduation week, we had a floor reunion where Karen brought up the day we shuffled the rooms. I made it clear that the consequences were not unexpected at all – I did it because they deserved each other.
Don’t let a terrible roommate ruin your living experience. If you’re dealing with a difficult situation, there are ways to navigate it and find a solution that works for everyone involved. Remember, your living space should be a place of comfort and peace, not stress and tension. Don’t be afraid to speak up and take action if needed. You deserve to feel at home where you live.
You are evil. LOL!😎
Perfect! I’m not a bully, but was frequently bullied as a child (poor, different, etc.) If I had been a bully, I would never assume good intentions from anyone I’d bullied. That would make me not just a bully, but a stupid one at that.
grow the fuck up
Well played.
I didn’t even get past the list of characters before I stopped reading
Evil genius with not only a bully original roommate, but a not so bright one as well.
As a short person, I love these!! 😂
My Dad used to tell me, great things come in small packages, including dynamite!! 😉
