Hello All,
I have an urgent need for advice concerning this situation. I currently live on campus and its my first year with a roommate and living in a dorm. I’ve had my ups and downs with my roommate.
The situation is that our room smells. Its from garbage or dirty clothes and its not from me (I made sure I double checked). My roommate is sort of a slob and I don’t know when the last time she took a shower. The smell is very overpowering from the moment you walk into the room. I’ve tried to give her hints such as : spraying perfume as soon as I come into the room and opening the windows and I don’t think she’s grasping it at all. It’s come to the point where whenever my friends stop by they complain about how it stinks. She doesn’t go to class and stays all day in the room sleeping and playing games and only leaves if she needs food and when I’m sleeping. So her body odor smell lingers in the room all day and all night long.
I don’t know how to speak to her about this at all. Her and I haven’t spoken to each other in like 2 weeks because I spoke to her about her late night talking and that I can’t sleep if she’s speaking in the room and if she can take her conversation outside the room until she’s done.(I guess she’s mad but she has been respecting my sleep since we last spoke).
I know its almost the end of the semester but since I have to live with her for the next couple of weeks, I just need some advice on how to survive this for the next couple of weeks.
Thanks.
