Entry 7 : Dealing With Roommate/Housemate Conflicts.

hello people!

this time around, i will be talking on conflict. well well well, what conflict would it be? let me make things straight. i'm gonna talk on a conflict i used to experience with my previous roommate alias housemate back in my diploma days in perlis. i started to stay outside of the college provided by UiTM when i was in my second semester. that was too early for a diploma student like me to stay outside. but, hey i like it like that. so my roommate was a same age like me. we've been living together started from my second semester until i graduated which is 5 semesters in total. we don't really had a lot of argument but we did quarrel sometimes. the problem was basically on the cleanliness of the room. i myself admit that i don't like staying in a messy place because i've been trained to make sure things are all in place and tidy. my roommate unfortunately was the opposite of that. so all i did to solve the conflict was;

1. i try to give her some signals and clues that i wanted to room to be all clean. what i did was i will clean the place myself in front of her. sometimes i even fold her clothes.
2. i try to slowly talk to her on what i don't like to see. 
3. even if the second act does not works, i will stop talking to her so that she knows that i am dissatisfied with her. so she will try to ask me and fix things right.

there you go some tips i applied whenever i had some issues with my roommate/housemate. i hope it helps! thank you for reading and hope to see you again in next post. assalamualaikum..
