True but what OP is saying is their roommate wants to pretend they live alone without actually doing it. If someone can’t afford to live alone they can’t act entitled to shared spaces

If your roommate is taking over shared areas or acting like they own the place, then yeah they’re wrong for that. But if all they do is stick to themselves it’s not a big deal. I just know sometimes people are upset when they have a quiet roommate and take it personally.

What is people’s deal with being upset with someone for being to themselves?!?! My roommates dislike me for the same reason and it’s exhausting. I want to come home and relax, I interact with people all day and this should be my safe space.

i think i misconstrued your comment my bad, but yea i dont get why roommates expect to interact or be best friends esp when you’ve never put that vibe out. one of my roommates i overheard them say they dislike and think me and the other roommates are bad roommates bc we don’t ask how her day is going (???) idek anymore

I think some people really think roommates are friendships you don’t have to work for. It’s annoying because nobody is required to show anything more than some common courtesy when y’all live together and some can’t even do that so why would I want to be your friend??

Omg exactly what you said “roommates are friendships you don’t have to work for”!!!! Mine thought we’d be best friends when we moved in, told me past roommates left them out, and was so upset when I started putting up boundaries. Just bc I have a car, doesn’t make me your chauffeur. Respect my things, or get your own. I come home for peace after a long day, I’m gone 5/7 days in the week. I’m polite, quiet, clean, handle the bills… yet I’m the the bad guy 🤷‍♀️
