HIM supposes HIM needs to start looking for christmas present

I did about....4 minutes worth of christmas shopping the other day and took care of someone in that time.
Was awesome

Let's find out... 1, 2OO, 3 *CRICK*... The world may never know!

I'll have to start Christmas shopping soon...after I compile a list of people I need to gift! Is it like this for everyone else? Where you have to systematically organize, for yourself, who you're gifting to and what you are getting each of them?

I need to start figuring out how I'm going to have time to make everyone presents as I don't have the money to go out and buy them...

And ugh, my roommates are just so stupid... And I'm so over them being so self centered.

Not really, if you are around my age I just buy a bunch of alcohol and we go party together. If you are a kid then I'll buy you something like a toy or w/e.

That's how I keep things simple :)

I guess I'm at an age where a considerable number of people are older than I am. So, I can't exactly invite them out to a party or outing, but I also can't just buy them a toy, haha. xD

Very long story - which I don't have time to go into - as it'll throw me into a mood... but they never acknowledge me anymore, or ever say hi to me, I can't even remember when they talked to me directly.... they've not done so in weeks... They don't even bother to wish me a happy birthday... Yet, I went out of my way to make a card for one of them when it was their birthday... -.- But I get NOTHING....:/ I'm just so over their fucking immature childishness... they say they want a stress free living environment, but because they see it as two against one, they're allowed to do WHATEVER they want and treat me this way... And I hate confrontation... and whenever I do try to tell them how their actions make me feel... I get told I'm being too sensitive and I need to be more mature about how I handle situations. -.-

If these are your roommates in a college dorm of some sort, maybe you can talk to the dorm advisor or a student leader to mediate the situation.

If these are your roommates in an apartment...well, I don't know the full story of how this type of relationship came to be. May I ask how this all started? You don't have to share if you don't want to, of course.

Oh, I have - they side with my roommates. It isn't worth it and just throws me into a bigger upset mood over it all... Basically I'm the one who doesn't act maturely, the one who doesn't try to work with them... yet they're the ones treating me like I'm someone they can walk all over and boss around just because it doesn't work for them... YET they say they want give/take, yet I'm supposed to give up everything... change how I've been doing things FOR YEARS... yet they're not going to give anything up.

Honestly, I don't know how it all started... apparently everything I do is wrong, and they feel like they can just treat me like crap because it's what's allowed for them to do... They've been treating me like this SINCE we moved in. (it is a dorm set up.)

I just am so overly sick of their immature childishness, yet they say they want to be treated like adults. I'm 8 years older than the youngest one and 5 years older than the older one of the two... But it's making it hard for me with how the constantly treat me... to remain mature and the adult in the situation which, of the three of us, I'm the only one acting like an adult. They're acting like petulant children who can throw a freaking tantrum whenever they don't get their way. They're like toddlers! D:

CloudDreamer:
Assuming this is a college dorm, what is the process to switch roommates? There's always a way to get out of harmful situations like this...and by harmful, I mean that it seems your roommates are causing psychological harm to you.

EDIT: Wait, is this a college dorm?

I am soooo glad (for MANY reasons) that I don't celebrate christmas.
No worries here.

Awww thanks Lavi!!

I'll be in and out all afternoon - I have an essay that I need to start that's due tomorrow. xD

@Roxxxy: Do you celebrate anything instead of Christmas?

(I'm already here. I may take awhile to respond, but ya don't really need to ping me. )

It is a college dorm... and thing is... I don't have it in me to actually switch rooms... too close to the end of the semester, and I don't have it in me to try to do it in the four days that I have before I start school after getting back after winter break... Oh, and I'm so close to telling them off... I'm almost to that breaking point.

So yes, it is an option... but for me emotionally, sure I need to find somewhere else to live... but honestly... I can't add any more stress to my already insanely stupidly stressful life.

Nope.
Free and clear.
But there are a lot of sales right after the 25th, and I take advantage of those!

Sorry about that! I didn't see your username at the bottom of the screen so assumed you might have left the thread.

You don't deserve to live with harmful roommates during your academic career (or any other time).

What is the process to switch rooms for next semester? I would really encourage you to do that, especially if you have any friends or other people who are willing to dorm with you. Your current roommates would probably even support the fact that you are hoping to room somewhere else, if they are this harmful to your well-being.

Also, are you close to your parents and other family members? Are they able to support you through this process?

Again, no worries if you don't feel comfortable answering any of these questions. I just feel that a friend or family member in real life would be more helpful than an anonymous person from the Internet like I am.

HIM's sending Roxxy the left over turkey. You're not getting away that easily

Oh, I do leave but it's on my Subbed list so I see it when it comes there - I may be slow with responding as I'm trying to start an essay that's due tomorrow, but I will see responses eventually. I lurk... quite a bit. Plus I'm also in invisible mode, so no one really can see when I'm on anyways.

Thing is... sadly, as much as I hate it... I'm used to it - so many people over the years have treated me this way.... OVER and OVER again.

Mmm, I honestly don't know, but thing is... really... I don't have any friends or family... I live 8 hours from both my parents and my brother (in opposite directions -and one of them is out of state)... But adding in having to move before the semester starts will only start me off stressed... :/

Close... as in do I live close, or am I close to them emotionally? No I am not close to them as in I don't live close, but I am close to them in other ways... but there is really nothing they can do from 8 hours away... it's not like they can just drop everything and come down here... they do have lives and school and work.

There's nothing that my family can do... they live WAY too far away. -.-
