BECAUSE they awknowledge my identity and know what I like/dislike in regards to how I'm addressed. Even my 60 y/o dad gets it. My roommate of course has been given the same "pass" as my friends but recently I've kinda wanted to revoke it. She's started blaming me for small messes that I didn't make and she constantly texts me at work starting with "Hey girl" to complain about some new mess I didn't make because I don't freaking eat tomatoes and the mess looks like tomato sauce! My breaking-
I just wouldn’t frame it to her as revoking a « pass », I would just tell her that you don’t feel comfortable with her calling you that anymore and that her boyfriend shouldn’t either and leave it at that, and maybe give her some options for things to call you that you would be comfortable with (like is queen ok, or bro, or just your name, etc)
Point was when her boyfriend called me girl. I don't like him, never have.. And when I asked him politely not to call me that, he said that my roommate gave him the go ahead (not me!). So now I'm thinking about revoking the "girl pass" from my roommate. This is such a non issue I know but I always question the boundaries I want and I need outside thoughts.
