Have you ever had a bad experience with a roommate? How did you deal with the problem?

I did. I thought my first College roommate was going to be sweet. I spoke to her once over the phone prior to moving in. I was a freshman and she was a sophmore. So I was living in the room a week before we moved in. Well everything seemed ok. She was nice and she shared for fridge and microwave I was even invited to go eat with her and her friends a few times. Well times became tough because I didn't like her soon after and wanted to switch roomates. If I could have I would have by 2nd semester. She would always have friends over and watch tv loud and she would have a lot of boys or maybe I just felt very uncomfortable being in there with boys she had just met. At one point I was working on my computer doing an assignment and I had my ear phones on with music well it was awkward because she was on her bed with her new boyfriend (Marine) she had met in a club and well yeah it was awkward so I left the room and went to the lobby. I was in the lobby and I wanted to go back to the room but I couldn't. Well I felt I couldn't so I ended up sleeping in the couch downstairs and didn't finish my homework. Also, one time I briefly opened the blinds so I can do my make-up and she flipped. She said that it was rude to open the blinds when she was sleeping that she didn't have to be up for another hour and blah blah blah. Well I had to be up I have 8am class and well the sweetmates were in the restroom so you can imagine. Well that was bad... so soonly after she became a bitch literally. So she started waking up at 6am and she would get up and get ready in a loud manner and god forbid I wuold do that. Then she would turn on a blender at 6am in the room almost right next to my bed. It almsot became to the point that we would avoid being in the room at the same time and if we were we would never talk or even face each other. There was a point in time were none of her friends wanted to hang out with her or something so she was a loner. I tthink I invited her once and well luckily for me she said no. But, I really felt bad because she was a social little butterfly... and a blond party freak. Not that I have anything wrong with her being blond it was that she was a little rasist and her last boyfriend was too... her first boyfriend and prolly high school sweetheart was really nice but anyways. I think the one kind thing that she did for me was one time I was crying my eyes out ... I believe it was the break-up in april or may I can't remember 2004.  That night I cried so much... and I saw it in her eyes that she felt the pain I was going through. She puts on How to Loose a Guy in 10 days I cry some more and relax.

Oh yeah I remember when I was about to Pledge for SAI. Bid morning I know they went knocking on the door at like 5am that morning and I did not hear that knock to save my life. She woke me up and said there were people for me... I didn't even know what was going on but I knew she was a little mad but I guess happy I would be busy and off her hair.  I was a really hard year for me to deal with but thankfully that was what led me to meet Ramiyah my next roomate and find another place to fit in. I was mad at her throughout college but then realized that I thanked her. I would never live with her again though. Ramiyah... you couldn't have to ask me twice.
