It’s def reasonable. If I can hear you screaming in the other room you need to be quieter after a certain hour

did you guys sign the roommate agreement? because if your roommate doesn’t like what you said you can always talk to your RA (if you’re an underclassman) and they can bring up the agreement thingy

I think it’s reasonable as long as you don’t have friends over constantly too

If you guys live in the same space, just different rooms, and her friends are also in the place then yes. I would say this is all completely normal and reasonable to ask. If they can’t keep quiet after certain times then they need to leave or find another space to hangout. And I don’t see the passive aggressiveness at all. It seems fine to me

i think that the sentiment is reasonable but if you want to avoid any possible drama you could reword it a little bit! if you’re sharing a space/in the same room i think that this is a reasonable ask, but if you’re in two different rooms it’s not very reasonable to ask her to limit the amount of time they spend over. i would instead ask her if they all can quiet down past a certain hour if you have school/work.

No, but our rooms are next to each other and the walls are so thin

in that case unless there’s any restrictions on visiting hours i don’t think it’s reasonable to ask them to come over less/limit the time, but i do think they need to hush it up in order for that reasonable. if they aren’t able to do that then they need to only come over during the day and less like u said

From my view, it seems a little passive aggressive and if this is the first time bringing this up, it might be best to approach things a little more gently.

This isn’t the first time. And believe me, this is me being nice. I could’ve been worse and thrown in some bad words but I held back. But if this keeps happening, I’m not going to hold back
