Major red flag: if somebody says they don't like cleaning or refuses to be responsible for the living environment that they share with others, please run away because you're about to start living with a disgusting nightmare, especially if you're used to tidiness.
@@aprilgosa5779 I hate cleaning. I've had a history of being a young and mini hoarder before moving to school. I've gotten a lot better since knowing I'm sharing a space with other people. I now can clean and feel better after doing it as much as I dislike it
Honestly if my roommates kept using my dishes I would just keep them in my room lol. Y’all not about to use my shit and then have the audacity to not clean it. Like who raised these people.
Same in college my roommates used all my dishes and we didn't have a dish washer I literally threw them all out because they got so crusty and gross and then they got mad at me for tossing them smhhhhh
That's actually a really good idea. Or actually to make it like legally binding to have references from your roommates if somebody wants to move out to another house/apartment.
I barely realized at 25:49 she wasn’t talking about an actual lunchbox. I genuinely thought she really cared about her lunchbox for the longest time I-
Please do. yk I've met so many shitty people in my life that even if someone does something as simple as passing me a bottle of water I WILL BE SO FUXKING GRATEFUL. I will remember and appreciate that person forever LMAO
Girl, second time they use my dishes, I would have taken my dishes to my room and just used paper plates (that would also be in my room). I can’t believe you were able to take so much. Even as a 17 year old, I think I would have moved right away
Not to excuse this, but your roommate very obviously needs psychological help. Being a messy person is one thing, but this wasn't laziness, this was someone with deep psychological problems.
Ngl if she came to me about going to the bathroom and getting in the tub, I would just grab my stuff and stay at a hotel. I would have slept like a baby
Yooo... That is straight-up *TRAUMATIZING* like if I was in your situation that time, I would have my anxiety and panic attacks at its peak; Good thing you were brave, good for you ; - ; I would've died
This story is so comforting. I'm going through a really similar situation, I'm a freshman in college, and I ended up in a triple. One of my roommates moved out after a month, and she stole a bunch of stuff. The other one always brags about getting in physical fights and having all of these mental disorders. She yells at me a lot for things that other people have told me aren't a big deal. She doesn't clean. She has this guy over all the time, even though I've said I'm uncomfortable having him in my space. She talks badly about people all the time and complains to me for hours. She expects me to take care of her even though she makes me very scared. I've developed severe anxiety, but I am trying to get a new rooming situation.
Advice to all college students…..do your research and make sure that your roommates are going to be others that you can live harmoniously with for the year…..ive had my own personal experiences when it comes to roommates and all i can say is that if you are going to live with other people, make sure that they are people that you can live with…..with respect and considerstion for your other roommates!!! Respect is key and setting boundaries from the beginning is so crucial!!!
i mean caroline had serious mental health issues going on that's for sure. and some mental illnesses make people not take care of themselves at all, that girl needed real PROFESSIONAL help. of course they used her stuff and that was so unnecessary, if you're not gonna clean at least use your own things.
So glad you got out of that situation, I hope you’ve been able to work through what happened and have gotten help if you needed it. I’ve had some “interesting” roommate experiences too. Specifically with roommates where I felt I was walking on eggshells constantly. I have some memory problems, and need my current roommate to help me to remember to take care of dishes and the trash, but I can’t believe leaving dishes and trash out in shared space for three months!
This just made me feel like I want to clean my apartment right now and made me so grateful that I'm living alone and I can keep my things nice and clean the way I want to
I know apartments are more costly than dorms, but there is no chance for any of that piling up in a dorm room. I had the best roommate and she and I would never make any messes. And we always went to eat in the cafeteria.
Girl, I would've cleaned and packed my stuff and straight up leave as soon as I came home to trash bags everywhere Edit: not even clean my stuff (dishes and stuff like that) just leave it there since they wanna use em so bad
This is a video that I keep coming back to. These roommate horror stories remind me of how lucky I am that I don’t have a roommate, especially this one. This “Caroline” was crazy
If someone threatens to harm themselves, call the cops. As a reference to anyone. How incredibly manipulative and traumatizing to subject a 17 year old to threats of self harm over your own issues.
I'm so sorry you had to deal with that whole mess! To be honest, you deserve all the love and respect and the messiness and other stuff was so unnecessary. In all, glad you are doing better and are happier :)
My college has apartment style dorms and I will be living with 5 other people. I swear to God if they are anything like this, I will be requesting a room change. All the bedrooms are single occupancy at least.
me too this fall but 4 people, i can get lazy and be a little bit of a slob at home but i know the moment i start living with these strangers im completely cleaning up my act!!!!!!!
Girl, where were your parents during all this?!! I have a 17-year-old and there is no way someone like that would move in and definitely not stay with my child!
Roomates can be so annnoying , i remember not being in my room and my roomate took out my personal journal and read it and discussed it with another girl, it was breach of privacy and she literally turned everyone against me and gave me a scarr for my whole life
I watch a lot of these and this definitely deserves the title of roommate horror story. I feel for you with that one. Anyways, thanks for sharing with us and you told the story really well!
I moved in with my boyfriend super quickly and I’m SO glad I got lucky with his cleaning habits. I didn’t know what I was signing up for and I’m glad I didn’t end up moving in with someone who lives like this
Where the hell was Caroline's mother? I'm sure you've learned a lot since then but please just call the police immediately if someone threatens to harm themselves. Thanks for the video!
My 18 yr old daughter goes to college next year and I have decided that despite the extra costs of a studio we will somehow make it work. I am sorry that you had to go through this. Thank You for sharing this even though I am two years behind but I needed to know this now. It has helped us make a big decision.
This is video definitely helped me feel not so alone in my roommate horror stories. I have been housed with psychologically disturbed individuals in the past from college dorms and I have experienced very bad things. This helps me process my feelings a bit.
this is so digusting as an 17 year old you handled the situation way better than the 20 year old .After hearin your story i just feel so bad and like u did not deserve to go through all that
Good video and interesting story. I am not native English speaker and this was an listening lesson for me as well. I paid attention to the way you structure sentences in past simple and pronounce certain words. The story is indeed shocking. Best regards.
UA-cam is literally shoving this video down my throat. You win UA-cam. I'm finally watching this after you recommended it to me for the billionth time. Edit: I'm only halfway through the video and I'm not disappointed by the algorithm to say the least. Anyways, your roommate sounds like a hell of a pain to live with, I'm genuinely wondering why you didn't change roomates/room.
I know a lot of people are saying “oh my god she’s so crazy“ and “wow I’m so sorry you had to deal with this“ etc.… But while these comments align with my opinion, I also think that the amount of trauma that this girl has gone through two become this type of person has to be absolutely astounding. I’ve known several people like this myself.
If I got to the point and heard her screaming like that, I would honestly grab my bag, stuff all my things in it as quickly as possible, grab my cat, call my mom or dad, and legit runaway.
Great job, you're an excellent storyteller and you're probably a super awesome roommate! I'm so sorry to hear how your roommate was unspeakably horrible! I'm glad you prevailed and learned a lot and have shared so others can learn from you! Wishing peace love and joy to you and everyone!
honestly if i walked into my bathroom that i shared with a girl who i knew at that point to be unstable and saw blood all over the walls and floor, i would’ve just called the police and have them handle it. worst case scenario, ur apartment turns into a crime scene with the roommate being the murderer. best case, the roommate maybe gets a good scare and learns her lesson.
7:00 a neighbor where I'm living does the exact same thing. constantly slamming things down or opening/shutting drawers, random squeals and screams and yelled phrases (never the same thing), if I make a noise, she makes a noise, never stops talking, never seems to leave her unit for food or work/class (because I can hear her talking at all hours of the day/night)...
With all of this happening what happened with the third roommate did they like move out or just ignore everything? How could they not call 911 themselves or like ask?
Thank you so so so incredibly much for posting this. I experienced something extremelyyyy similar to this, at around the same time even. (Late 2018 - Early 2019) It’s been really therapeutic to watch this and not feel quite so alone in my experience 😅 I literally was diagnosed with a panic disorder, and had to attend therapy for a year afterwards. We discovered later from her family that my roommate was actually going through a schizophrenic / manic episode! Maybe that’s what happened in your situation as well??
I am working on an animated college roommate horror story for my channel right now. This is great research! Your roommate was nuttier than a snickers candy bar! 😱
I am surprised they did not call her parents and say something and file a complaint with the school and the apartment complex over the situation. I almost been tempted to get called to a psych ward or tell the school nurse of what was happening.
just imagining it makes me sick If I were you I move out of there ASAP in the other hand I honestly proud of you for coming this far and stayed strong best wishes for you💙
Girl, after the dirty dishes situation I would of threatened her to kick her out if she continued. I would of been like “if you wanna stay here you have to do your part, you can’t smoke or vape here. Or you can pack up your stuff and leave” and if she still didn’t listen I would of taken her stuff out myself while she was out of the house and kicked her out. I’m sorry you had to go through all that. I hope you had better experiences after that 😊
I'm the other roommate, I'm the Caroline here (not as worse but I've been that problematic roommate) . I have bipolar disorder and unfortunately I was having a manic episode. I was very close to the roommates, it was a guy and a girl. I wasn't gross but the opposite, I was over cleaning everything, basically doing laundry at 3 am or something. I was extremely clean but in an unhealthy way, even a little dirt was setting me off. However, the manic behaviour soon led to psychosis and I ran away from the house, without shoes and was running around the park nearby. I can't even imagine how scared they must've been. We were really good friends but that night was the end of it all. We were old tho, in our 20's, so they were mature enough to be a little calm about it and they called a cab and took me to the hospital. I was soon in a psych ward and was later diagnosed with bipolar disorder. You need to understand though, I had no idea what was wrong with me and the way I was acting was not to harm someone but I was doing what I thought was natural at that time. If I had known I'm ill I surely wouldn't act like that. That being said, I think the girl clearly had mental issues but she wasn't aware that she was mentally ill and that she needed help. Anyway, a year later I met up with one of the roommates and apologised to her in person, the guy and I talk on and off sometimes but surely our friendship was ruined. I must say though, I'm sorry this was too much for you, you were just 17. My roommates were 24-25 and were still terrified and I would've been too if I was in their position. That was brave of you to handle. All I have to say is, I know you're not the girl's friend and are not obliged to forgive her but please bear in mind, if she was mentally stable I'm sure she wouldn't act like that. Some people are just mean, some are just ill. The other roommate who didn't clean seemed much stranger to me as she seemed mentally normal and yet refused to help you out in any way, that's worse. Hope you're alright now. It's chilling for me to hear this as this happened to me in 2018 too! Hope the girl got help as well but if it makes you feel any better, trust me it wasn't about you. She may have directly abused you but since she is sick it could've been anyone, like how a wild animal would not choose the victim, anyone who comes in the way is doomed. So don't take it personally, only then you won't ever be scared of that incident or that girl ever again :)
Hello Nidhi, I know you posted this comment a year ago, but if you’re reading this I hope you’re feeling better now. It's really nice for you to share from another perspective. It is really easy to automatically think of people as either “good” or “bad” but sometimes there's an in-between where people do bad things because the world was bad to them. This is no excuse for caroline’s horrible actions, but it shows the root issue of the problem, which is the lack of resources for mental health across the globe. I hope you are continuing to heal from your traumatic experiences and I wish you the best.
@@Niki-jh3ld hey! Yup, still on UA-cam, so got your notification haha. Thank you so much for checking in! Yes yes I have healed from it all, I am on medication since then and for life but even with the meds there are ups and downs. I won't lie, it is not easy to deal with this but despite all of that I managed to finish my masters (I was living with those roommates during our masters, I got kicked out of the program after my episode but they called me back a year later when I was better), I managed to find a job and have kept it since a year and a half now and I got engaged and am getting married this year! So yes, there is definitely hope, we can lead normal lives for sure but it's just tougher. I am still figuring out how the disease precisely affects me, I figured over 4 years now that apparently a change of season triggers an episode (a much controlled episode since I am on meds) and I am trying to figure out other triggers etc so yeah it's like studying myself to manage it better. It is always better to educate oneself. Thank you again for checking in, makes me happy when people care :) Hope you have a good life too!
Just came across your channel and I'm so, so sorry you had to go through this experience. I struggle with anxiety and that sounds like my worst nightmare. But I gotta also just comment on the fact that I think it's adorable your cat is named Lunchbox omg. I love that 😭🥺
So sorry this happened to you. you were doing the best you could even at 17 years old and no one deserves to deal with what you dealt with and went through. Hope you're doing well now
Wow sorry you had to go thru that, I really think the whole college roommate thing is terrible, extremely dangerous and a cultural shock for us who grew up in different countries , I personally cannot sleep with a stranger near me and will never understand why do this to young people who are trying to discover who they are without there parents and get some space of their own also not a great environment to study for such expensive universities. You really did great with the terrible hand you were dealt
That reminds me of my grandpa. The family issue comment. My mom walked in after our older friend died and we had been with her. He asked how her day was and she said “been a little rough.” And he replied with “well, I’m sure someone else is having a much worse day than you.” 😐
The silent roommate was in on it I bet. You can't tell me that they sat together using this girl's dishes, watched her clean up after them, without discussing their awful behavior and laughing about how they are driving the girl insane. Those girls were talking for sure.
@@VictoriaMcNallyX i have anxiety without my mom sounds crazy enough I know but I can do things alone but I can’t stand not being alone without days at a time
I would've called the police instead of that number and gotten her hauled off to the seventh floor. She more than likely had issues from the childhood she mentioned offhand.
I'd be so pissed if my roommate did that stuff to me and if you were my roommate I'd do the dishes, cook meals for all of us and if she ruined your towels I'd go to the store and purchase you new ones
Ok so I have been into bad roommates storys, but this is the worst. The fact that she left BLOOD on the walls and was armed says a lot about her and this story. I am so sorry you were out through that, and that should have never been put on a 17 year old.
Hi Victoria!! I’m not currently in college, I’m currently 24. When I was 20-21 I moved into a dorm room . This would be my first year , in a dorm . My roommates (4 of us ) we did not click. I’m sorry about what you went through at 17.
you literally stopped vaping just for your roommate whom you barely talked with..! you are such a great friend.. my 2 roommates literally put me into trouble by complaining shits about me to the senior and this made my hostel life MISERABLE!! once one of the roommate fell off the stairs, broke a flower pot and a leg and got ill, i didn't sleep till 3 in the morning just to check if she was okay or needed something, and this is what i got in return.. actually your hostel life is depended on the type of roommate you get.. if we would be rommies, i bet we would turn best friends within a month...
I am so sorry you had to deal with that. I unfortunately also dealt with roommates that did what you described in your video. I had to skip through some parts because it was all so reminding. We will always be traumatized but we are strong.
As someone whose had roommates similar to this, if you can’t use the kitchen please invest in your own mini fridge for your room and a hot plate so you can still cook meals without having to use a dirty kitchen!
im about to move to cstat as a sophomore and live in a similar situation . this makes me so nervous, i’m just doing random roommate matching too. I hope its not bad like this omg

I watch these to remind myself why I settle for a studio apartment vs. a roommate while I'm saving money up.
Honestly that’s very smart haha
Live alone & get pets if u want roomates.
I would love a roommate IF IT WAS MY BEST FRIEND
@@gxgi_rose4102 yea like i would never room with someone that I don't know at all Ive watched too many of these ahah
how much are studios? and isn’t it kinda scary to live alone sometimes 😭 maybe it’s just cuz i have anxiety lol
Honestly if my roommates kept using my dishes I would just keep them in my room lol. Y’all not about to use my shit and then have the audacity to not clean it. Like who raised these people.
LOL honestly
I literally had to do this too 🙄🙄🙄
I would have locked all my cabinets and put a dead bolt on my door. That would have made me so mad!
Same in college my roommates used all my dishes and we didn't have a dish washer I literally threw them all out because they got so crusty and gross and then they got mad at me for tossing them smhhhhh
Agree
she wrote a message for you in the bathroom mirror ... who would think that was normal? you were super understandable
I would just stick a post-it note or something if I wanted to leave them a note but writing on the mirror’s a little creepy
So passive aggressive
bruh not just creepy like u would literally get in so much trouble w the landlord if that shit doesnt come off...like who tf does that
….idk….maybe….idk…
A PHYSCO
That's the creepiest thing ever.. what horror movie did she jump out of?
“We don’t like cleaning”. Well I don’t either but I don’t like living in filth either. 🙄
right??? most people dont like cleaning, but most people hate living in filth even more
It's stories like this that reinforce my opinion on wanting a "yelp" for humans. I need warnings about these people.
That’s such a good idea, I need that in my life lol
I have been saying this for YEARS!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
That's actually a really good idea. Or actually to make it like legally binding to have references from your roommates if somebody wants to move out to another house/apartment.
What if someone just doesnt like you and writes aweful thing about you 😅

Girl, second time they use my dishes, I would have taken my dishes to my room and just used paper plates (that would also be in my room). I can’t believe you were able to take so much. Even as a 17 year old, I think I would have moved right away
I feel you I’ve had two horrible college roommates but no where near as bad as you. The worst was they used my chair for intimate time
oh god no :o
Oh god-
Mine used my bed, so 100% understand 😭
oh god y'all
Very simple fix for the chair --- couple clean rags and LOTS of Clorox spray!

The problem is, is that you call 911 not the number of the fiancé
You are so intriguing! You also seemed SO nice and patient towards your roommate
thank you! i always try to be nice to others (even if they dont deserve it)
If someone threatens to harm themselves, call the cops. As a reference to anyone. How incredibly manipulative and traumatizing to subject a 17 year old to threats of self harm over your own issues.

Edit: I'm only halfway through the video and I'm not disappointed by the algorithm to say the least. Anyways, your roommate sounds like a hell of a pain to live with, I'm genuinely wondering why you didn't change roomates/room.
I know a lot of people are saying “oh my god she’s so crazy“ and “wow I’m so sorry you had to deal with this“ etc.… But while these comments align with my opinion, I also think that the amount of trauma that this girl has gone through two become this type of person has to be absolutely astounding. I’ve known several people like this myself.
I feel so bad for u, why did u let this take so long? 😫😫 you deserve more
Ewwww omg I am so sorry that you had to go through all of this!!! You are so strong and amazing 💕💕
Thank you I’m glad I’m out of that situation! ❤️🙏🏻
@@VictoriaMcNallyX so like did u move away?
If I got to the point and heard her screaming like that, I would honestly grab my bag, stuff all my things in it as quickly as possible, grab my cat, call my mom or dad, and legit runaway.
Great job, you're an excellent storyteller and you're probably a super awesome roommate! I'm so sorry to hear how your roommate was unspeakably horrible! I'm glad you prevailed and learned a lot and have shared so others can learn from you! Wishing peace love and joy to you and everyone!
Thank you for your feedback! 🥰
honestly if i walked into my bathroom that i shared with a girl who i knew at that point to be unstable and saw blood all over the walls and floor, i would’ve just called the police and have them handle it. worst case scenario, ur apartment turns into a crime scene with the roommate being the murderer. best case, the roommate maybe gets a good scare and learns her lesson.
She was always lying, had a lack of hygiene, AND a painful childhood? yep sounds like a narcissist.
This made me appreciate my introverted roommate who is tidy, calm and friendly
I had roommates that caused me to have panic attacks on The daily almost just because they kept saying I caused their anxiety and depression...
In all honesty you are so much more patient and strong willed than I am. I would have exploded with them.
I’m sorry you had to go through that :( I’m glad you got out of that situation
7:00 a neighbor where I'm living does the exact same thing. constantly slamming things down or opening/shutting drawers, random squeals and screams and yelled phrases (never the same thing), if I make a noise, she makes a noise, never stops talking, never seems to leave her unit for food or work/class (because I can hear her talking at all hours of the day/night)...
This is off topic but lunchbox is such an adorable name ❤️
when everyone starts refusing to do dishes, its time to remove your cookware from their reach, and buy yourself some disposable cookware.
When she says almost the exact date you know somethings about to go down lol
With all of this happening what happened with the third roommate did they like move out or just ignore everything? How could they not call 911 themselves or like ask?
Thank you so so so incredibly much for posting this. I experienced something extremelyyyy similar to this, at around the same time even. (Late 2018 - Early 2019) It’s been really therapeutic to watch this and not feel quite so alone in my experience 😅 I literally was diagnosed with a panic disorder, and had to attend therapy for a year afterwards. We discovered later from her family that my roommate was actually going through a schizophrenic / manic episode! Maybe that’s what happened in your situation as well??
I am working on an animated college roommate horror story for my channel right now. This is great research! Your roommate was nuttier than a snickers candy bar! 😱
I love your videos so much!!
Can’t wait to watch!! Roommate horror stories are some of my favorite story times
I am surprised they did not call her parents and say something and file a complaint with the school and the apartment complex over the situation. I almost been tempted to get called to a psych ward or tell the school nurse of what was happening.
just imagining it makes me sick If I were you I move out of there ASAP in the other hand I honestly proud of you for coming this far and stayed strong best wishes for you💙
Girl, after the dirty dishes situation I would of threatened her to kick her out if she continued. I would of been like “if you wanna stay here you have to do your part, you can’t smoke or vape here. Or you can pack up your stuff and leave” and if she still didn’t listen I would of taken her stuff out myself while she was out of the house and kicked her out. I’m sorry you had to go through all that. I hope you had better experiences after that 😊
I'm the other roommate, I'm the Caroline here (not as worse but I've been that problematic roommate) . I have bipolar disorder and unfortunately I was having a manic episode. I was very close to the roommates, it was a guy and a girl. I wasn't gross but the opposite, I was over cleaning everything, basically doing laundry at 3 am or something. I was extremely clean but in an unhealthy way, even a little dirt was setting me off. However, the manic behaviour soon led to psychosis and I ran away from the house, without shoes and was running around the park nearby. I can't even imagine how scared they must've been. We were really good friends but that night was the end of it all. We were old tho, in our 20's, so they were mature enough to be a little calm about it and they called a cab and took me to the hospital. I was soon in a psych ward and was later diagnosed with bipolar disorder. You need to understand though, I had no idea what was wrong with me and the way I was acting was not to harm someone but I was doing what I thought was natural at that time. If I had known I'm ill I surely wouldn't act like that. That being said, I think the girl clearly had mental issues but she wasn't aware that she was mentally ill and that she needed help. Anyway, a year later I met up with one of the roommates and apologised to her in person, the guy and I talk on and off sometimes but surely our friendship was ruined.
I must say though, I'm sorry this was too much for you, you were just 17. My roommates were 24-25 and were still terrified and I would've been too if I was in their position. That was brave of you to handle. All I have to say is, I know you're not the girl's friend and are not obliged to forgive her but please bear in mind, if she was mentally stable I'm sure she wouldn't act like that. Some people are just mean, some are just ill. The other roommate who didn't clean seemed much stranger to me as she seemed mentally normal and yet refused to help you out in any way, that's worse.
Hope you're alright now. It's chilling for me to hear this as this happened to me in 2018 too! Hope the girl got help as well but if it makes you feel any better, trust me it wasn't about you. She may have directly abused you but since she is sick it could've been anyone, like how a wild animal would not choose the victim, anyone who comes in the way is doomed. So don't take it personally, only then you won't ever be scared of that incident or that girl ever again :)
Hello Nidhi, I know you posted this comment a year ago, but if you’re reading this I hope you’re feeling better now. It's really nice for you to share from another perspective. It is really easy to automatically think of people as either “good” or “bad” but sometimes there's an in-between where people do bad things because the world was bad to them. This is no excuse for caroline’s horrible actions, but it shows the root issue of the problem, which is the lack of resources for mental health across the globe. I hope you are continuing to heal from your traumatic experiences and I wish you the best.
@@Niki-jh3ld hey! Yup, still on UA-cam, so got your notification haha. Thank you so much for checking in! Yes yes I have healed from it all, I am on medication since then and for life but even with the meds there are ups and downs. I won't lie, it is not easy to deal with this but despite all of that I managed to finish my masters (I was living with those roommates during our masters, I got kicked out of the program after my episode but they called me back a year later when I was better), I managed to find a job and have kept it since a year and a half now and I got engaged and am getting married this year! So yes, there is definitely hope, we can lead normal lives for sure but it's just tougher. I am still figuring out how the disease precisely affects me, I figured over 4 years now that apparently a change of season triggers an episode (a much controlled episode since I am on meds) and I am trying to figure out other triggers etc so yeah it's like studying myself to manage it better. It is always better to educate oneself.
Thank you again for checking in, makes me happy when people care :) Hope you have a good life too!
Enjoyed the story girl💕want more storytimes!
I’m glad you enjoyed!! I’ll be sure to film more
Just came across your channel and I'm so, so sorry you had to go through this experience. I struggle with anxiety and that sounds like my worst nightmare. But I gotta also just comment on the fact that I think it's adorable your cat is named Lunchbox omg. I love that 😭🥺
You handled this so maturely!
So sorry this happened to you. you were doing the best you could even at 17 years old and no one deserves to deal with what you dealt with and went through. Hope you're doing well now
Wow sorry you had to go thru that, I really think the whole college roommate thing is terrible, extremely dangerous and a cultural shock for us who grew up in different countries , I personally cannot sleep with a stranger near me and will never understand why do this to young people who are trying to discover who they are without there parents and get some space of their own also not a great environment to study for such expensive universities.
You really did great with the terrible hand you were dealt
That reminds me of my grandpa. The family issue comment. My mom walked in after our older friend died and we had been with her. He asked how her day was and she said “been a little rough.” And he replied with “well, I’m sure someone else is having a much worse day than you.” 😐
Dam the silent roommate didn't wanted any part of this drama
Honestly kudos to her
Also God you didn't deserve to go through that
The silent roommate was in on it I bet. You can't tell me that they sat together using this girl's dishes, watched her clean up after them, without discussing their awful behavior and laughing about how they are driving the girl insane. Those girls were talking for sure.
@@buckrogers6378 I don’t think think so
She even said the silent roommate didn’t play any role in the story
No the silent one was just as bad, she also refused to clean up.
@@tomxzen1834 * clean other people place* imagine being the third person would you personally like to be involved
She said so herself, clean your ears.
That’s why I don’t wanna go to college because of this it’s scary to live alone with out your parents sorry I am 22 I still live with my mom
I know it seems scary but I have learned so much from living away from home :)
@@VictoriaMcNallyX i have anxiety without my mom sounds crazy enough I know but I can do things alone but I can’t stand not being alone without days at a time
I would've called the police instead of that number and gotten her hauled off to the seventh floor. She more than likely had issues from the childhood she mentioned offhand.
I'd be so pissed if my roommate did that stuff to me and if you were my roommate I'd do the dishes, cook meals for all of us and if she ruined your towels I'd go to the store and purchase you new ones
Ok so I have been into bad roommates storys, but this is the worst. The fact that she left BLOOD on the walls and was armed says a lot about her and this story. I am so sorry you were out through that, and that should have never been put on a 17 year old.
Hi Victoria!!
I’m not currently in college, I’m currently 24. When I was 20-21 I moved into a dorm room . This would be my first year , in a dorm . My roommates (4 of us ) we did not click.
I’m sorry about what you went through at 17.
you literally stopped vaping just for your roommate whom you barely talked with..! you are such a great friend.. my 2 roommates literally put me into trouble by complaining shits about me to the senior and this made my hostel life MISERABLE!! once one of the roommate fell off the stairs, broke a flower pot and a leg and got ill, i didn't sleep till 3 in the morning just to check if she was okay or needed something, and this is what i got in return.. actually your hostel life is depended on the type of roommate you get.. if we would be rommies, i bet we would turn best friends within a month...
I am so sorry you had to deal with that. I unfortunately also dealt with roommates that did what you described in your video. I had to skip through some parts because it was all so reminding. We will always be traumatized but we are strong.
When there isnt ads 🥰
Dang girl, what a terrible situation!! I don't miss my roommate days AT ALL.
As someone whose had roommates similar to this, if you can’t use the kitchen please invest in your own mini fridge for your room and a hot plate so you can still cook meals without having to use a dirty kitchen!
I binge watch so many roommate stories this is THEE WORST. Poor girl you were only 17.
And this is why I am getting a singles dorm when I leave for college next year
You named your cat lunch box😳😂😭😭
That was his name when I adopted him :)
JustBriiTv WTF is wrong with his name?🙄
WhT?? It’s cute
But I’m extremely petrified of cats so I wouldn’t go near him :(
This is exactly why I choose to live at home and commute to school and work
im about to move to cstat as a sophomore and live in a similar situation . this makes me so nervous, i’m just doing random roommate matching too. I hope its not bad like this omg
DONT DO IT
