Resolving Issues with Your Roommates

 
 

Truth be told, it doesn’t matter how much you like your roommates; living with another person is bound to cause some tension or problems at some point. What’s more important than the issue at hand, however, is how you handle it. You may be apprehensive to bring up the problem you are having because you’re afraid to hurt your roommate’s feelings. But, ignoring an issue can lead to more stress for you. On the other hand, being too harsh or aggressive can cause the situation to escalate. So, how do you discuss roommate problems in a productive way? Here are some tips to help you navigate these sticky situations:

  • Approach the situation with caution. Be careful not to come across as angry with your roommate. Instead, gently let them know that something is bothering you.
  • Work together to come up with a solution. Your roommate will likely be more open to change if they feel like they were part of the decision. 
  • Give your roommate the benefit of the doubt. Chances are they are not trying to upset you and likely don’t even realize they are doing something you don’t like.
  • Be forgiving. Everyone makes mistakes, and holding a grudge won’t benefit either party.

Remember, communication is a two-way street. If your roommate ever approaches you about an issue, be open to what they are saying and make an effort to correct the situation before things escalate. A good roommate relationship is the key to a happy apartment life.
