#I guess I have to be more openly neurodivergent on applications

Roommates

Hi,

So I obviously don't believe that I'm close to being the perfect roommate because I am human and also neurodivergent. My friend has suggested the reason I feel personal conflict with my roommate so often is due to us having different coping mechanisms and ways to stimulate ourselves. For now, here is a list of complaints I have about her.

The whole calling her boyfriend daily thing. I might seem like a hater, truly, madly, deeply. However, when we first moved into the room and had to do the roommate agreement she said "I don't call him that often. Maybe once a week." Now I would not mind a 3-4 hour call once a week because I've been there and done that. Yet, she calls him every day for at least 2-3 hours and they game and shit together. Which would be cool EXCEPT that my roommate has no sense of awareness? I had someone in the hallway the other day offer their condolences because they also know how loud she is and I had opened my door while she was on the phone and you could hear her. She does not even have to be yelling for her to be loud.

Hair and bathroom hygiene/cleanliness. So my roommate will only shower when she washes her hair which is somewhere like every 3-5 days. So she does indeed have her own scent to me BUT ALSO she has only done laundry once since we've been here. It has been almost 6 weeks. Insanity for me after having grown up in a military household.

She doesn't understand boundaries and openly admitted to being two-faced (which is nuts). It was actually wild because the other day I had been sleeping but she loudly called (maybe yelled) my name. I then proceeded to wake up, freak out, and then almost go off on her because she woke me up JUST TO COMPLAIN ABOUT HAVING TO WORK WITH SOMEONE ELSE FOR SOMETHING SHE VOLUNTEERED FOR. (She actually has so much drama with this girl now and it stems from her lying, miscommunication (on both ends), and a lack of social awareness (my roommate was MC-ing with this girl for a ceremony we had and she has been advised numerous times not to make an NK joke and then put one in her script) so honestly, terrible combo and time but it meant I had to listen to her complain more.)

Almost every in my group doesn't like her so I hear lots of complaints and get many pitiful looks. This shit sucks.

Anyway, she now is known for being childish and irresponsible. I hate being associated with her and am openly unhappy about rooming with her.
