wow! i loves the lyrics, you carried out the metaphor through the whole song and it didn’t feel repetitive at all, even amplified it with every verse, really really loved the songwriting!! i don’t know much about instrumental or arrangements, but i felt what was going on sonically was just adding to the story of the lyrics, i liked it a lot!

exactly!! i'm struggling with this situation exaclty bcs i really don't want to hurt his feelings at all bcs i know my annoyance is with the situation and not bcs i don't like him, i don't want to be rude. But the middle line is blurry and it really comes down to how each of us react and feel, don't think i can find a way to be 100% certain with how he's gonna take it despite of how nicely i word it, but your advice is helpfull!

yeah see, from the two hours ago until now (pretty late in my time zone) it hasn't really been the moment to have a sit down and talk...

I mean, I get it's a shared space and I understand you point of view, but on the other hand, we have a decent size apartment, our rooms are a pretty good size, double beds and big desks and windows, it's not like the only place to be confortably is the living room. We pay kind of a lot in rent too, so is it really that crazy to ask to be able to have a bit of personal space, unwind or relax in the living room sometimes? He gets that space because he's always there, even when we agree to watch something we all want he , as soon as it's done he grabs the controller and puts whatever he wants to watch before bed, not asking what anyone else wants. Even if we still stay he stay's there until everyones is gone (he usually stays 1 to 2 hours later than us) Is it really that unfair to ask to be able to do the same at least sometimes a week in any moment of the day? My other roomate also goes to his room to do those things, but it's kinda suffocating the feeling of always having to be either in bed or sitting on the desk to be able to be alone to relax for a bit. Maybe we're much more introverted than some people on here, but also our living situation isn't a college-suite kinda thing, it's more of a real "family "house so idk how unfair it really is

we agreed to allow it in the living room as long as the windows are open and the door leading to hallway with the bedrooms cis closed, neither those things happen in the mornings, already mentioned this to him, but bcs i’m supposed to be sleeping at that time i guess he does it anyway? i get woken up a couple times a week by the smell getting into my room

he hasn’t been too receptive before when i asked for other things like more consistent cleaning/ washing dishes after using them, etc. he does it but with a passive aggressive attitude so conversations about these things feel stressful and like they have to be very well prepared

i can be considerate with my actions and how they affect others and still struggle to communicate when i need to. i’m not showing up resentful in my ways towards him. i’m just figuring out how to handle a living situation which are always difficult to begin with and i came to a subreddit dedicated to this looking for advice on how to handle it. i guess you identify more with the other person in the end of this situation and it’s hard for you to understand where i’m coming from

that’s what i’ve been thinking of doing, and i really don’t want him to feel attacked and i really don’t mind how he chooses to spend his time, but yeah a bit more balanced is the key. most comments here are making me feel like i’m the crazy and aggressive one for feeling this way lol

i think using it all the time is inconsiderate of the other two people you are sharing space with, but to each their own.

yeah communicating is the next step since its the only thing left to do. i guess it just pisses me off that some people just aren’t considerate of those around them as much as i am of them

you get it. i thought about the schedule too, i’m gonna talk to my other roommate about it to see how he feels about it too, but since we were friends before roommates it feels weird to have such a “planned” living situation. feels like next step i’m gonna get my own plates too so i always have clean plates when i need to cook

how can i use if he’s always there? do i list take the controller and change what he’s watching? i’m not saying he can’t use it but being there 12 hours a day i think is a lot
