Handle This: Your Roommate Is Needy

Feb 8 2008 - 9:10am

You've known your current roommate since high school, and though you're not super close friends, you do have a history. Lately she's just been driving you crazy — She eats your food, skimps on the bills, and is constantly coming home at all hours of the night stumbling drunk. In the morning, she always complains that she doesn't feel good. Since you know it's just a hangover, you usually ignore her whining and head of to work. However, one morning — after she got home at 3 a.m. — you find her in the bathroom throwing up. She tells you that she thinks she's really sick, and though you try to explain to her that she's just drunk, she keeps saying how it feels different this time. She then proceeds to ask you if you'll stay home from work to take care of her. You really don't won't to waste a sick day to help a friend who you don't even think is sick in the first place, but she's laying on the guilt trip pretty thick. How would you handle this?
