@flacko2wotime@heirmeg & I've seen countless posts from people who've been in this situation detailing how inconsiderate the roommate & boyfriend were, especially the boyfriend being greedy & messy. Being upset about this is neither being stupid nor indicative of a character flaw/lack of nuance.
@flacko2wotime@heirmeg It's normal and valid to be upset about subsidizing a stranger's housing every weekend, unfair to say a couple can act as they please with no consideration for others, and manipulative to call a roommate misogynistic for disagreeing with an unfair living situation.
@fishycoquette Your partner isn't the center of the universe and if you refuse to consider your roommate beyond considering your partner then don't have a roommate! Figure something else out!
@fishycoquette How do y'all not get that partnered roommates should compromise? Stay at your partner's place sometimes. So what if they live with their parents? That's not your roommate's problem. Forcing a roommate to accommodate your partner isn't "community", it's just selfish.
@jo_seye_ahh@smolpootatoe It's about respect, not control. Bum bf staying 25% of month rent-free is free housing subsidy paid for by unconsenting roommate. Want live-in bf? Move in with him so roommate can get person who respects her. Tired of belief that single women should concede to bum men & their gf.
@RickyMoral_Less It's moot & if your friend invites you to dinner and pays the bill beforehand you can't bring your bf to eat for free because "it's already paid for." Your roommate signed to live with you, not subsidize your bf. But I get you guys care more about his comfort than anyone else's.
@RickyMoral_Less@Lel3poo The real losers are your deadbeat boyfriends who can't afford to split rent with you and you guys who expect your roommates to subsidize them because you believe men are the center of everything and deserve to always get but never give. Embarrassing.
@jshxde@fishycoquette@RickyMoral_Less Family β a random grown man. Setting a boundary = communicating. Adulthood = seeing that expecting ur roommate to subsidize ur guest a quarter of every month without them reciprocating is exploitation. Childishness = name-calling people who disagree with you.
@fishycoquette@jshxde@RickyMoral_Less Girl you're projecting a lack of compassion/maturity onto me because you refuse to see understanding goes both ways, including understanding things you disagree with. Expecting a roommate to financially subsidize an unreciprocating guest isn't "community" it's exploitation π
@ohsnapitsemmiee@MacDaddyLel@RickyMoral_Less Youβre just selfish women expecting others to accommodate your bummy boyfriends to the point of financially subsidizing them because they're too bum to afford a place with you or if they do have their own place they're too bum to host you like you do them. Embarrassing stuff.
@BSLivesMatter@smolpootatoe I'm 100% owed an explanation when I'm paying half for the space, utilities, and resources a stranger is using for free. But I see now that selfish bums think they can do whatever they want without considering others so no use trying to get you to see another's perspective.
@RickyMoral_Less@ohsnapitsemmiee@Eridor4 Like I said bf is using resources gf's roommate pays half for and he none which she didn't consent to. She didn't consent to paying his electricity either. Just because you're happy with your arrangement doesn't mean everyone is but I know selfish people struggle with empathy.
@RickyMoral_Less@shestheman@jshxde I'm still not the stupid one cause even if him using water doesn't rack up the bill he's still using a resource he's not paying for but that his gf and her roommate are cause they're paying rent. Get it???
@jshxde@RickyMoral_Less@shestheman A quarter of a month is a massive chunk of time to have an unpaying occupant but whatever. Y'all are selfish people who insult anyone calling you out. Wanting basic consideration in a home I actually pay for doesn't make me a loner but I get you don't know what consideration is.
@jo_seye_ahh@smolpootatoe Single people aren't jealous they just want couples to treat them like humans worthy of consideration. And brokie bf doesn't have an income which is why gf has roomate. Y'all are just selfish people insistent on defending selfish behavior and insulting anyone who calls you out.
@BSLivesMatter@smolpootatoe Then why doesn't she go to his place? Prob cause he lives with parents or roommates who don't want her there. & she doesn't pay for everything, her roommate pays too and has a say over whether she wants to subsidize a brokie man's rent/water/elec/food etc. You're just selfish.
@jo_seye_ahh@smolpootatoe If someone wants their boyfriend living rent-free with them for a good chunk of the month they should get another job & move out with their broke boyfriend and pay for both of them. It's not fair to expect their roommate to subsidize him. People are lucky you chose to live alone.
