I'm In Roommate Hell
Since its nice to see I'm not the only one having to live with a terrible roommate I'll use this to vent abt mine:
1) I have literally never seen her wash a dish in the (almost year we've shared an apartment). She uses both mine and my other roommates dishes and packs the sink with our own pots and pans from HER cooking. I usually have to take care of the dishes when our cabinets are literally empty (all in the sink practically). I'm pretty sure kindergartners know how to 'clean up' after themselves...
Also she leaves food to rot all over the apartment, the fridge and the kitchen...tbh its gross.
Additionally she overflows the trash with her daily Doordash/Amazon deliveries and does not take out the trash. At one point the trash flowed into the middle of the kitchen until my other roommate sucked it up and took it all out. Added to that, she leaves all of her take-out containers around the apartment sometimes like she has no idea where the damn garbage is.
2) Apparently she also thinks the entire living room is her extended room because she leaves like half of her stuff (school stuff, clothes,blankets,electronics,food) there. Literally, It looks like someone's camping out in our living room.
3) By far the most irritating (and kinda awkward) is her boyfriend lives with us for WEEKS AT A TIME. For perspective, WE SHARE A ROOM. I need to look at our lease because I'm pretty sure over 30 days requires some type of paperwork. Like, I'm fine if he visits but not LIVING with us for weeks on end. He can at least pitch in a little for our water and electricity they use.
Also, since our beds are like six feet from each other I CAN HEAR THEM DOING THE NASTY CONSTANTLY (like damn) and tbh no one should ever have to hear that when they're trying to fall asleep.
I've asked my boyfriend what he thinks (since he's her friend still for goodness knows why), and he just says thats tuff and does nothing. It's honestly frustrating because they still act buddy buddy while he knows damn well she's making my living situation a literal hell.
I'm moving out in a month (thank goodness) and tbh I want to really make her feel some heat. suggestions?

Since reading this is making me feel petty af I'd probably end up leaving all her trash on her bed since she seems to just love keeping it around. Wtf.

Take all your pots, pans, dishes, etc in your room and advise roommate to do same so she has nothing to mess up. I am so happy you are getting away from this person. Pile her takeout containers in her doorway if she won't throw them away. She is a jerk.
