Question - (24 October 2014) 1 Answers - (Newest, 24 October 2014)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

hey guys,

I'm having troubles with my roommate. She has been a best friend of mine for about 5 years. recently we decided to rent an apartment together. Everything is ok except for she hates my boyfriend of who i have been dating for 2 years.

Recently my boyfriend tried to get in contact with her over facebook. he wanted to throw me a party and invite some friends for my birthday as a surprise for me. He told my roommate she could invite friends as well. However, she saw his message and never responded.

He has never been rude or mean to her and has always tried to make polite conversation when he comes to visit me. however, my roommate seems awkward and does not look at him or respond to him very nicely when he is around and it makes things uncomfortable to me.

I confronted her about this, saying I wish she would have responded to his message to throw me a birthday party. However, she said that she was too busy that week and said it my boyfriend put too much pressure on her to invite people, even though I know he just suggested it.

She also said that she wishes she would have known that I was dating my boyfriend again (we broke up for like a day) before we signed the lease so she could have "fully evaluated the situation".

I've always been nice to her boyfriends, even the ones i don't like. While my boyfriend and i have always had our ups and downs and I have vented to her on occaision when things got bad, I'm really hurt that she would base our friendship over my boyfriend who hasn't done anything wrong to her and I'm really happy with.

I don't know how to deal with this situation. Her birthday is in two days and she wants me to be there for the weekend when I was supposed to see my boyfriend. At this point I'm upset with her and just want to leave and forget her party. Please give me advice

olderthandirt agony auntNewsflash, Room mates don't have any say so about who you date! UNless he stays over a lot and is a pig or hits on her(that would be redundant).
