<p>ok, so first semester my roomate was hardly in the room at all, but now hes in there much more, and the big problem is that he listenes to his music very loud. Now, our class schedules are like completely different, so when I have class he doesnt and vice versa, so were never really in the room at the same time during the day. So he will be listening to his music really loud, and then leave the music on when he leaves. So I come back and the music is blaring, and i dont know wether to turn it down or what. Also, he listens to music while he sleeps, and usually I will come back into the room when he is sleeping and the music is on, and I dont want to wake him up to ask him if he can turn it down, but sometimes its hard for me to sleep with it so loud.</p>
<p>dont be a biitch</p>
<p>I would turn it off in the occasions that you come and the music is on without him being there.</p>
<p>As for other times, just talk to him and express your feelings. I know this sounds like what your Grandma would probably say but you dont know how many things are solved just talking. Go tell him it bothers you in a good manner.</p>
<p>Oh my god!!!!(umm, that sounded so white)</p>
<ul>
<li>Anyways, my roomate does exactly the same thing. If he wasn't 6'4", I would have probably started a fight by now--it just drives me so mad. Have you talked to him about the issue, sounds like he is taking advantage of you.</li>
</ul>
<p>Wow, hard to believe the idea of talking to the guy never occurred to you. If he's not in the room there's no reason not to turn the speakers off.</p>
<p>I would ask if he could use some headphone or an iPod... it is common curtousy. But, yeah, definitely talk to him.</p>
<p>If he's not there, or is unconscious, you can turn the music off or down because it's not affecting him anymore. Mentioning it to him would also be a good idea too.</p>
<p>Mention it to him (nicely)</p>
<p>He may not know it's a problem if you don't tell him it's a problem....he can't read your mind</p>
<p>Maybe you should tell him about a little invention called headphones. Head phones were invented for situations like this. Your roommate is being completely insensitive. You have to say something because it could affect your academics.</p>
<p>If he's not even in the room, just turn it off. I do that to my roommate w/o asking permission. If he's gone he's not listening to it, so whats the difference?</p>
