For the record I do not like either of my roommates. They are bffs which makes them a package deal. If you have a problem with one you have a problem with the other. Any who, we had a tiff about the temp. They wanted to double gang me and have me submit to sleeping in unreasonably hot conditions. Needless to say I stood up for myself. Since then the roommate who initiated the confrontation has been really testing my nerves. We had a temp agreement then she ignored it. So I took it upon myself to change the temp settings to whatever I wanted since that was the general message being sent. The morning after her glorious bff sends a "holier art than thou" text claiming how disrespected she felt. Again held my own in a texting war (that I did not initiate). Recently, I received a text from the one I share a restroom with. We set a cleaning schedule, and that was all fine and dandy. I pulled my weight when it came to cleaning, but I noticed that she just kept leaving the restroom a mess. I have come in to find period stains on the toilet seat, half flushed tampons, hair on the floor, and her makeup/toothpaste in the sink. I don't claim to be a saint, but when I use the restroom (because I despise restrooms) I make a strong effort to pick up after myself. When I clean I deep clean the restroom, but I noticed that she wasn't doing the same so I let up. I honestly felt like I was being taken advantage of. When I came back from xmas break the restroom hadn't been touched so she cleaned up when she realized I was home, then again the week after she left a mess in the restroom. The following week I went out of town, but cleaned the restroom as soon as I made it back. Weeks go by and she doesn't touch the restroom, meanwhile I clean the tub out nearly everyday to prevent scum from building up on the base. Then I receive this long rude drawn out text from her about how she doesn't feel that it's fair that I do not clean the bathroom. But as usual her usual messes had built up in the restroom evident of her lack of tidiness. I do not mind doing my part, but I also do not think a cleaning schedule means being a complete slob in the mean time. I don't like having to defend my character, these are just two instances. Can I just ignore the texts? I don't message them at all outside of a monthly bill I have to post. Advice please?
