roommate situation

<p>so, i have a problem. if you don’t want to read my rant, skip to the last two lines.</p>

<p>a friend of mine and i are doubling together next year in a rieber vista double, and my current roommates are doubling together in the room next door. so we're going to be sharing the bathroom. i was fine with that until...</p>

<p>my roommates and i got into an argument recently, and it's not something that can be easily resolved. her boyfriend sleeps over almost every night and i have trouble falling asleep because they make too much noise... . . . she gives him her key and he comes in really late at night when they THINK my other roommate and i are already asleep. we're all friends and i don't want to get the RA involved. there's a lot more to the story (the guy’s a jerk, he disrespects us all, thinks he can do anything just cuz his gf lives here) that has been building up since this quarter. my other roommate is fine with it though. my roommates always double up in situations against me.</p>

<p>initially i thought i got lucky with my housing assignment because we got pretty close but it's kind of gotten to a point where i've been too nice and if i act assertive now i look like i'm mean. i know i should have been assertive from the beginning but everything was new to me and i was excited with meeting new people so i just let things happen, and it's gotten too far...</p>

<p>so i brought it up the other day and the three of them attacked me (both of my roommates and the bf) and we pretty much aren't on good terms right now. i can tough it out for another quarter, but i do not want to have to do anything with them at this point, even if they're just my suitemates next year. it is just not that one reason, there are a lot of reasons that i rather not deal with.</p>

<p>so my question is... i know people in rieber terrace that are in a triple and two of them are going to switch out because they got an apartment, so they're going to reject their housing offer. is there any way my friend and i can switch into the two new spots in the RT triple from our RV double?</p>

<p>thanks :)</p>

<p>I think what you need to do is have the two that are in the triple do a room switch with you (for your double next year), so then you change rooms. Then, they drop the double and can go into an apt or whatever.</p>

<p>So basically, room switch–>you-triple, them-double–>you keep triple, they drop double.</p>

<p>:) I know someone else who did that and it wasn’t an issue, so you should be fine.</p>

<p>i think it’s impossible to do room switches now. you’ll have to wait till whoever ends up in the triple room when the new year starts, and then housing usually holds their room swap program. </p>

<p>the room swap function on the website don’t work anymore.</p>

<p>definitely go talk to the housing office, but im pretty sure they can work that out… although i might add that suitemates are way different than roommates… like my friends that lives in RV and RT barely see their suitemates at all so like the bf situation shouldn’t be a big deal at all when you are not in the same room (unless you can’t even stand seeing her briefly at times like in the bathroom or hallway) but if you can stand that i think a double is way better than a triple…</p>

<p>thanks for the responses you guys.</p>

<p>i know it’s not as big of a deal, but it’s gotten to a point where i don’t even want to bump into them at all. i rather live in RT with friends i know and be in a triple… triple isn’t that bad though, even though it sucks because i totally could’ve gotten a double with the friend i’m planning on rooming with next year somewhere away from my current roommates, but things didn’t work out… whatevers, hoping for the best now.</p>

<p>i hope housing can work something out :)</p>

<p>You should get one of those gangstas from campus to assault that guy. I think you should hit the gym and grow some muscle so that when those *****es attack you, you can pimp slap them hoes!</p>

<p>Does your roommate and her BF knock boots when they think you’re sleeping? If so, you should film that **** and sell it on campus.</p>

<p>i think at this point you’re not friends anymore and you should get the RA involved. if only to serve as a moderator to discuss things instead of having them all gang up against you.</p>
