Her Roommate Pretended Their Apartment Got Robbed To Teach Her A Lesson, So Now She’s Ignoring Her Roommate
A 20-year-old girl currently lives in a major city, but she considers where she lives to be pretty safe.
Since her city is such a good place to be, coupled with the fact that her parents never really monitored her a lot growing up, she’s fallen into the habit of never locking her front door.
“I drive a Wrangler and take the top and doors off and have never had a problem with stealing,” she explained.
“I’ve never locked the doors to my houses or apartments. This has never been an issue with my old roommates or family. It’s just the way I’ve developed.”
“My roommate (19F), since moving in, has increasingly become more paranoid and anxious. I’ve known her for years and have never seen her like this. She thinks there are cameras in her sink; if she gets a bug bite, she assumes she has bugs living in her bed; when she sleeps, she has paralysis where someone comes in to kill her. She locks her bedroom door and front door for safety.”
Since her roommate is such a worry wart, she really has made an effort to make sure she locks the front door of their apartment behind her.
Unfortunately, she doesn’t always remember to do this on her way out, but she is hoping to break this bad habit of hers.
One week ago, when she came home and opened the front door, she saw that everything in their apartment had been strewn about.
Things were absolutely everywhere, and as she made her way into her bedroom, she noticed that many of her belongings were missing.

Her TV, her mini fridge, and her vintage magazines were missing, along with a ton of her clothing.
“It was clear, through my eyes, that I had been robbed,” she said. “I sat on my bed and just sat there in shock.”
“On the verge of tears, I called my father, who didn’t pick up, and I was left defeated practically, lol. Then I jumped up because I was worried about my roommate’s room. She was sitting there waiting for me.”
“She had all my things in there. Pranked me to try and teach me a lesson about locking the door. My problem is that she never even talked to me; I had no idea this was an issue with her before. She said I should have “assumed” that I need to lock the door out of respect for a shared living space.”
She and her roommate then got into a fight before she decided to pick up her things and stop talking to her entirely.
In the days since this all went down, she has not said a single word to her roommate because she’s that angry with her.
She believes that her roommate’s behavior is upsetting, frightening, and simply out of touch with reality.
She did fill one of her friends in about what happened, who also happens to be friends with her roommate, and this friend thinks that she’s the one in the wrong.
Her friend stated that she was the one being mean and dramatic, especially since her roommate is struggling in her life right now, so she needs to be more understanding.
Although she does get that her roommate isn’t having the easiest time, she believes that isn’t an excuse for her roommate pretending to rob her to teach her a lesson.
She thinks she did nothing wrong and that everyone around her is just nuts.
Whose side are you on in this situation, hers or her roommate’s?
