Living with morons
- So my housemates aren't talking to me. My room backs onto the garden and I pay more rent for it, because I won't let them bring friends into my room to use the garden I'm selfish and now no one speaks to me. The housemate is 41.. Mate get a life and move out you're 41 and stop perving and ganging up with the 20 year old girl. She ain't ever gonna shag you which is funny as from all the men she brings back she isn't that picky ;) Xx

The singer
- My current house mate sings all the time, and when she is not singing she is whistling, or talking on skype in our kitchen so if I want some tea I have to try to avoid being seen and interrupting her extremely loud conversation. She is never quiet, its singing or blaring music or talking non stop on top of that I don't know if I have ever met someone who is as moody and pretentious as my house mate in my life. It is awful. She is impossible to live with, only six months left in counting! I have even thought about quitting my jobs and moving back home just to get away from her. I NEED QUIET at least sometimes!!

the passive aggressive sensitive slob
- Started acting weird and SUPER passive aggressive, wouldn't talk to me any more, etc. Dishes NEVER done. Trash taken out maybe five times a year, when I'm away or random guys visit. Clothes, old socks, old dryer sheets piling away in the laundry room. She NEVER vacuumed or cleaned the microwave, or the kitchen, or anything. Whenever I mentioned something (nicely) to her, she became even MORE passive aggressive, and apparently was complaining to some guy (a then mutual friend) that she had a crush on, telling him things like how I deceptively roped her into another year on the lease, when she wasn't present when the lease needed to be renewed, and never gave anyone--me or the landlord--any heads up that she wanted out. The "mutual friend" then telling me that "confronting" her in any way is my bad, after calling me a a selfish bitch, because she's too "sensitive" to talk to people about any fucking thing.

DRUNKS!!!!
- I am a girl and live with 3 guys, one of which is my bf. Me and my bf are sick of their sh*t, they drink ALL THE TIME! They don't care that i actually work and need to be up in the mornings. They never do their dishes and we end up doing it for them. Then if i forget to do my dishes for 1 night they get really mad and say, "they do theirs right after they eat" yeah bullsh*t after there all week parties they don't clean up at all and get mad when the house is a mess they leave empty beer cans and bottles everywhere and the house looks disgusting! the upstairs bathroom is sooooo gross toilet paper all around the garbage and facial hair all over the sink not to mention the drugs and sketchy people they bring to the house, they always eat me and bf's groceries and don't really bother to buy their own food even though my one room mate makes 19$ an hour the other guy doesn't work at all and yet they seem to have money to drink all the time. Thank god my bf isn't like that! i would go nuts

i don't even know what to say
- My mom and sister let their friend move in with her two kids. I real didn't care since my sister has already 3 kids and I thought they would just play with them. The first day she moved in and her husband soon to be ex helped her move her stuff. When night time came a man went running up the stairs. Being the man/guard dog that I am I ran to see who it was. It was her lover. She tried to say that was her husband to try to play it off. I told my mom I really don't care who he was he can't sleep there. We'll it didn't matter - he came over and over again. Many times she would have parties almost every weekend. Then their friends would go to my nephews' play room and take toys. When I noticed I locked the doors and unscrewed the light bulb.

psycho girl moves in after being in jail
- On April 1st this weird lady moved into my room and we were roommates for only one day. She would call me jumpy and I told her I am not jumpy. She also told me she was homeless and came from the streets then on the second she moved into the other room and said she did not want to room with me for I am a sketchy person also jumpy. Then today on the 7th in the morning she threatened me to fight her. My landlord told me she just came from jail for beating a woman up at her last place she lived and I really do not understand why he lets her live here. She said she has been demon possessed also she told me that she is a recovering drug and alcohol addict and told me she will use and drink again. I do not feel safe with her living here.

High maintenance...
- A needed an apartment and I had an extra room at the same time, so we thrilled at the idea of moving together! She proceeded to insist on moving all of my furniture out, and to move all of hers in, and after the considerable amount of time that took proceeded to stay in the apartment long enough to have a tantrum about the internet and throw a party for her new boyfriend the evening before I had a 24 hour call shift, and advised me that she had found more appropriate arrangements shortly after. In the meantime, I had donated my furniture to a friend who had needed it and was thus left in an empty apartment that I could not afford several weekends behind in studying due to moving time. To top it off, this occurred as I was planning my wedding and subsequently resulted in a cancelled honeymoon and one less guest to our wedding...

Disrespectful.
- My "roommate" is a lazy slob. Everyday she comes home and trashes the house brings her friends over, etc. She uses everything I buy. She says I am lazy and disrespectful. Yeah, right. She moved her boyfriend in after she cheated on her ex who was a close friend of mine. Her boyfriend doesn't help out either. I know he can't stand her as much as I can't, She buys our dogs cheap dog food that is not good for them and then complains when they use the bathroom everywhere. I came home today to find that she had "taken" my games.. which add up to about 300$ total. I asked her about it and she made up some lie about how she needed them ? Then I come home to find that she has been going through my room and stalking me on Facebook. I deleted her and blocked her and can't wait to kick her ass out.

BitchRoommate
- My roommate is rude and selfish, she brought another disgusting friend to stay over for 'a week', the girl NEVER washed the dishes, threw out the garbage or even introduced herself when she was here but she sure as hell freeloaded. My roommate is a dirty pig, never washes the dishes, never throws out the garbage or cleans after herself, she hangs her nasty ass thongs on the shower and I always know when she has her woman things. Her boyfriend is so &^*ing abnoxious, I can hear them kiss (and we live in an apartment), he brings his damn dog, they never respect my time for sleep what on earth can they be talking or yelling about at 4am?! I am so sick and tired of her!

Straight up weirdo
- When me and my roommate first met, everything was cool. After a while I understood the true meaning of " knowing ppl by living with them for a while." For starters she doesn't clean period. She rarely buys tissue so I branched off and kept mine hid. Stuff I buy she thinks is for her, such as paper towels, hand towels, soap, and so on. Not to mention she follows me around. WTF YO? This is college and she is older than me. I don't need people following. It's a lie she has no friends or something. She constantly makes these annoying sounds with her feet and throat every time I want to take a nap. I have been nice, but if she asks me will I be her roommate next semester, her feelings will be hurt bc I'm transferring AGAIN!

The "Virgin" roommate
- Me and my roommate were cool the first month of school....until late February early March, changes started. She told me from the day I met her, that she was a virgin. Slowly yet surely, she started bringing different guys by the dorm to "sleep over". Mind you at this time, she had a bf! The first time I let it go. The more I heard these guys late at night, the more frustrated I became. Until one night it was 4am. I was sleeping and she came in with some guy. At first, I didn't mind. Until he got in bed and heard kissing. Idc what they do, but have RESPECT for me as a roommate. We're in the SAME ROOM, I can hear what you guys do at night. And then you say you're a virgin on top of all this? Well you sure portray yourself differently. I've lost respect for you as a roommate.

Worst sister roommate
- This girl had a potential bf that worked in an Alberta oil camp. And on his week off he would hangout at our place the whole time. Also, they drank bottle(s) every night he was here (5). They also did it upstairs where my and our other roomies rooms are, even though she had her own living space and bedroom downstairs. So disrespectful! They would keep me awake till at least 1am every night cuz they're so drunk and loud and close and they did not give a damn!

Gross
- I needed a roommate to help cut some costs of medical school. This kid is a fellow student. He lets his dishes stack in the sink until they start to stink. My girlfriend was visiting and washed a pan he used. He walked by and told her he was going to soak it some more and wash it later after she already washed it. It "soaked" for two weeks! He has not done his laundry in 2 months. My room is right next to the bathroom so I know for a fact he doesn't wash his hands after #1 or #2. He doesn't brush or floss his teeth. He simply mouthwashes so his breath doesn't stink.

Hide yo panties
- I was put in a triple room last minute with two other girls. One of the two was chill but the other...Well I thought she was a lot of fun and seemed like a great person. She was funny and made my life interesting. However...I found out that she had been stealing my expensive Victoria secret underwear and was stealing them to see some guys!!! I knew it was too good to be true! Me and the third roommate BOTH moved out cuz of her. She was self centered and disgusting! Also she would steal just about anything else she can get her hands on! After moving out, she suddenly sends me: "you're not relevant anymore. Bye." Bitch please! YOU were never relevant to me in the first place! You're ugly and Annoying and no one loves you!
