Having trouble with my "roomate"

ok here's the story, my brother is in the army and he married this asian girl, brother has to go off to Afghanistan and he doesnt want his new wife to be all alone.... so he asks our parents to let her move in with us. of course parents say yes, and at the time i was ok with it. but now... i'm not sure if its just the deep accent of her asian origin, but when she talks to me, or at all, it's it a very snobby/whiney tone. and it drives me NUTS!! and she believes in ghosts coming out of TVs (somehow she heard i was playing Fatal Frame) and told ME to not play games like that. (what right does she have?!!?). idk maybe it's just pet peeves

can someone with an annoying roomate give me some pointer on how to keep my cool?

Just ignore her and tell her to leave you alone if she doesn't have anything nice to say. You don't have to put up with her, it's your brother's wife, not yours.double_decker

true, although it's getting to the point where she basically tells my brother (her husband) how things are going, and as protective as my brother is, he will go nutsknowing that im not getting along with her. but if he does, i will tell him to suck it (not really but that's the intention)KGB32

lol, you wont catch me babysitting, they are not my problem. just annoying

Mind your own business and be civil and polite as much as possible. Maybe your bro will believe you, maybe you won't, but at least that way you'll know that it was entirely on her end. If she bothers you about the game you're playing, ask her if she needs the TV right there at the moment. You're using the TV and so you're free use it as you wish just as you would allow her to use it as she wishes when it's her time to use the TV. Paladin_King

now that sounds like a great night out :)

Just start walking around naked and refuse to wear any cloths at all. She'll either be creeped out and leave or start sleeping with you, so you come out the winner either way.Darth_Tyrev

To TC: have you talked about this at all with your parents? Maybe you guys can have a sit-down with your parents as the mediators/middle-people?Paladin_King

i have talked to my mom about this, typically she is the "way-too-nice" type so i had to tell her my point of view. oh and about the game/tv thing, she lives downstairs and i upstairs, i have my own tv that i play my games on, and she has a 46' HDTV (which my brother bought, yet all she does is watch HGTV on it IT KILLS ME TO SEE a 2000 dollar TV go to such waste). knowing this, she doesnt want me to play the game despite the fact im playing it on a different floor of the house?...

That doesn't sound so bad. My sister and her husband let her husband's friend move in. :| He nearly destroyed their computer by going to porn websites. Not only that, but her husband let his friend use his phone, only to have his friend run the phone bill up to $652 this month because he was calling his girlfriend in Canada. She wants him out, and if he doesn't pay her $700 ($500 for phone bill and $200 for rent), she will be out of a phone. He also stole a wedding photo from her from her wedding. :|ayanami_rei

Oh, he knows she's quite angry about it. She had him go into the office and take a look at the phone bill. He wasn't happy and had a talk with the dude. Supposedly he's going to pay it but I have a feeling that he won't. :| The dude is also really creepy. My sister already told him that he has this chance to pay the bill or he's out the next day.ayanami_rei

My mom won't let me go over to their house because the guy is there. He was only using my sister's husband's cell phone because his was turned off (hm, should have been a red flag to the husband when he heard about the dude's phone being turned off since he didn't pay his $800 phone bill).ayanami_rei

yea i said that she believes ghosts will pop out of her tv. KGB32
