ouch!!! i've never heard of such cruelty to a housemate. you'd rather find a new place to stay because i can't imagine how you're gonna deal with it. i believe you can find a better place and a better housemate who will treat you right. in short: it's unfair so leave her and give the freedom to yourself. you deserve to live in a house that you can call and find HOME.

It sounds like your misunderstanding might have been the result of a short fuse. I'm not sure why your showering and early schedule would have bothered her unless you're quite loud while getting ready in the morning or if the shower makes a noise that could wake her. It's unfortunate that you had to move out so quickly but now that tempers have cooled it would be a great idea to invite her out for a coffee to talk things through and clear the air. While it may not result in your being able to move back in, perhaps you will still be able to save this friendship. Good Luck!

Since you live in a house that is rented so you should know the basic rules that your rentor has made. If your friend did mention these before you occupy one of her room then she is not wrong. Because she mentioned the terms and you did agree. But if she has done that all of a sudden and there is no such obligation then she is wrong. You should talk to her and clarify the matter.
