How do you deal with roommates?
This is my first semester living in a house off campus and my roommate is driving me crazy. She has a dog and the dog doesn't bother me but she said that she would clean the floors every week because the dog is dirty and she has yet to do that (she made that statement in December). I am the only one who cleans the house (I have stopped cleaning the common area bc she hasnt been doing her part and it is nasty- i can't stand it anymore so I may have to give in and clean it). She and the other roommates from last semester were late on the water/electricity bill from november-dec so we almost got our electricity/water turned off so I had to pay that and we got a bill two days later so I called and they told me that the first bill was nov-dec and this bill is dec-jan so I just told her I am not paying the dec-jan bill since i paid a bill that wasn't mine (the bill that wasnt mine was like $5 pp more so I am actually doing them a favor) and she just bit my head off. How do you talk to roommates about money and get them to clean? Are people really just dirty?
