Annoying housemates! how do you deal with them?

hi there! you have the same problem as my friend.they have an annoying housemate and they are hating each other.there lived four people altogether and it something like 3 against 1.that one is the annoying girl.at first they confront with her and asked her to change the habits.but it useless as the girl declared a war with them.she even wrote everything in her blog and raised sympathy from others.like she is innocent but the truth is the other way round.eventually they kicked the girl out of the house (majority voices) and they were happy when that girl was not around anymore.you need to talk directly to her.that is the only solution you have or how about find other housemate?it's a bit difficults you mention housemates means they are more than a person right?

Well lets see if I had to deal with annoying housemates I would probably just deal with it you know and just pretend that nothing bothers me and just keep on living with them until I finally get enough money to be able to afford my own place. Hang in there just try to ignore those annoying habits and you can even have a talk with them and tell them what's bothering you. Good luck.

Its really hard finding a room mate that you can actually live freely and comfortably with. there will always be something about each other that would make you disagree, or not match in a house! especially of course if they are not cleaning up after their mess, etc. I guess you have to sit down with them and talk to them and try not to say things that might be offending too. I think you just have to make sure that you actually let them know your stand and for them to understand you, your feelings and hoepfully after talking with them, they would be able to change some of the bad habits that they were so used to.

Hi, I can understand how you feel having an annoying housemates. You can try to talk to her nicely to change her attitude and help to keep the house clean. You guys can come out with schedule on doing the housework, so the house will be clean all the time. If this method is not workable,you can simply move out and find another suitable place to stay. There is no point to force yourself staying with those annoying person.How irritating and feel unsecured too.

I spent most of my college days in one dormitory. It like apartment with 3-4 occupants in one room. I've been there for 3 years and my room mates changes every after semester. I have seen all kinds of annoying attitudes of each and very different room-mates. Though I hate seeing some people's bad habits and disgusting manner I need to lived with and the only thing that I can do is to accept the fact that every people has their own lifestyle and I don't care about it as long as they don't step into my area and no one of them tries to over-step my things everything will be in good place. ;)

you will live with people who are your friend or have good habits it is easy-do and a good communication with each other also is great way to live togather

oh well! that is a difficult situation. maybe i will confront them and discuss things subtly. =)

Well that's housemates for everyone i guess. You wouldn't even believe the stuff that my roomies do all the time. I have to put up with them. But they are quite fun at times also. Attitudes can't be changed but habits can be. Show them that you care for the room or the house more than your house mates. That will cause them to think around. Play with them also and try to pay them back how they deal with you. If i remember right i don't remember any roomies changing with a talk they need actions which can speak louder than words and if you take heed to the advise of the people who posted here then i am sure that they won't be bothering you no more. Cheers!

well i would be shy to tell them i dont like it :( i would just ignore it or if couldnt take it would have to find other house. anyway i think that we should all have respect if we are living with people we dont know yet and try to be friends with them^^ that way we feel comfortable. if there is no respect we wont be happy living there and will be bad for everyone^^ anyway wish it didnt happen to you :) to me didnt happen yet :)
