So I may have found another place to live. There's a free room in the apartment across the hall, where my friend Stefvyon lives. He said it was cool if I moved over there. I need to go talk to the leasing manager either today or tomorrow. I am relieved but at the same time sad. I may have lost a friend of 10 years in the process. A few days ago she went off on me for shutting the blinds when she "asked me (you) repeatedly to keep them open". I told her to a.) clam down. it doesn't do you any good to get worked up over something so trivial. b.) she wasn't home, no one was home. I live here to and I can shut the blinds every now and then if I want to. I pay just as much rent and electric as you do. c.) you have not "asked" me "repeatedly" to keep them shut. it came up once at the begining of the semester. Either way, I shouldn't have to feel like I have to ask permission to do somethig like close the blind and watch a little tv in the dark in my own apartment, where, as I said, I pay just as much rent as the other roommates. d.) you're almost 20 years old. stop crying over something like this. grow up. (I said it as nice as I could and tell her the truth. true friend tell each other the honest truth, right?) e.) I told her she is stronger than this. she's a good, smart, person who can take on anything. so please don't take your bad moods out on me when you're upset. come talk to me. I'll gladly listen and support you and give you advice. I thought after we talked everything was cool. Until she started to ignore me all week. she cooked dinner for all the roommates but didn't offer me any or cook enough for me to have. she'll walk right by me and not say a word but will go up to the other girls in our apartment and cheerily start talking about her day. I gave up trying to talk to her and gave her some space to work stuff out and cool off. she doens't say anything to me in the moring when we drive to work. she emailed me this morning saying "I can't drve you to work on thursday and friday." I asked she can't or she doesn't want to? She simpley replied "don't want to." I told her honesty is the best policy. she needs to stop masking her feelings and tell the truth and stop playing games girls in high school play. It's quite obvious she doesn't want to be my friend anymore. And if she wants to sever our friendship over something so silly as a fight about a window...I don't know if I want to be her friend. my heart is breaking.
