Hi, I am a freshman and I am going to be transferring this spring term.
I have one week left and I have not told my roommate that I am transferring. I feel really bad about it but I didn’t know I was 100% leaving until just before thanksgiving and I didn’t want to tell her right before thanksgiving. I am really nervous to tell her since we are good friends and I have left it so late.
Also our other roommate (we are in a triple) moved out over thanksgiving but she was never there anyways but I feel really bad now because I left it so late and I have never even mentioned the fact that I was considering leaving.
How should I bring it up now? I also plan on telling her but I think it will make things awkward if I just bring it up when we are doing homework in the room especially since it may come as a shook to her.
I am super nervous to tell her because I don’t think she will understand my decision and I don’t want to trash the college that she loves in order to explain why I’m leaving (its too small for me, i feel like i am not at a real college but an upgraded version of high school and i want the real “big university” college experience, I dont like the area its in, not enough activities go on, other school is cheaper etc)
Would you be mad if you roommate (who you are friends with) told you finals week they were transferring for spring semester? How/When should i bring it up? We are both busy and have different schedules so we aren’t alone in the room too often and i dont think i should tell her in a group of people
