Well,

I came home from the gym to find a note from my crazy roommate saying she was at the movies. Let me give you a little background on the type of girl she is. Vindictive and reminding me more and more of the movie Single White Female. She borrows all my clothes, without asking, just rummages through my things and takes whatever she wants and never gives it back, she even borrows my handbags WHICH is a big time no no with me since most of them are made by expensive desginers and she treats everything like crap.

So shes at the movies, with a collegue of mine and someone I see on a social basis from time to time. He had taken her out and had a nice time, when I asked her not to since it would make things a little strange for he and I to see each other. Obviously she didnt listen. He spent the night which made things even more strange.

The fact of the matter I could care less about the guy since I am happy with where I am, but why go against a wish someone has when its not unreasonable. The only reason she went out with him is because he is sucessful and she is looking to be taken care of.

She is constantly telling me how I need to improve my life. We are both doing weight watchers and I work out 6 days a week while she sits on her computer and my web cam all night long and eats ice cream and is far too lazy to remove the container from her room so she stores the empties in her desk drawer. But I need to change? Umm ok.

So on my rant goes.

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Ok on to why I am here in the first place. I am having a pretty good week staying OP, eating well and busting my butt at the gym. I am hoping it will pay off tomorrow on the scale.

Hugs all.

Exactly he has his own place. You would think they could have went there.

Oh well.

I can understand all that but all she has to do is tell them to leave her out of it and keep her friendships separate ..... I know, I've been there done that lol

I think its a big deal because I specfically asked her not to do it because I know what she is like.

I don't date collegues and I don't want her dating someone I have to see on a daily basis because I dont want to be in the middle. You can ask someone not to drag you into the middle but its GOING to happen.

The bigger matter is the lack of respect. It was uncalled for, I dont treat her that nor should she should me.

OMG, your roommate sounds like a nightmare! I can understand why you wouldn't want her to date your colleague, and it would have been nice for her to respect your wishes. Unfortunately, you can't control who others choose to date. Is there any way of getting a new roommate? I know that might sound extreme, but I don't think I could live with someone who obviously has no respect for me or my things. I hope you get this worked out!

Oh gosh!! I know how you feel because i had a roomamte situation that was pretty similar. I think that you really need to sit down and talk to her about your feelings, especially the clothing/hadbag thing cause that is extras annoying. If you don't talk it out with her it could lead to you blowing up at her later and possibly ruin your friendship. Trust me on this cause it nearly happened to me.

Thanks for you're support all.

I am going to try for the last time to sit down and talk with her which I am sure will turn around to what is wrong with me in her eyes. Its easy to be self rightous when you have had a "date".

You guys are really great, I think a lot of the time we are on task here and everyone once in awhile its nice to deal with everyday things.

I know its not the board topic but to be honest its things like this that make me over eat.

I am sticking with it though. I am never looking back

Sounds like, it's time for one of the roommates to move out though? Life is too short, for either of you to be unhappy in a living situation. Nice meeting you, and best of luck reaching your weight goals.
