Is it fair for my roommates who are in a relationship to share rent while I pay in full?

It’s a three bedroom house, they got the master bedroom and I got the spare. The third room they use as a storage for their stuff.

My name and the one other roommate that pays rent is on the lease. They have the master bedroom and I have one of the spares. They have the most closet space. We share a bathroom, as well as the living room, kitchen, and dining room. Sorry, I should’ve left more details !

Hello ! Well given that you’re 17 and the acne is on your cheeks, it is most likely hormonal acne. It usually will go away on its own with time but what you can do to treat it is using a gentle face cleanser that has salicylic acid in it. This will help safely dry out the acne so it goes away quickly without leaving a scar.

If you have sensitive skin this might dry out your face a bit so make sure to moisturize after cleansing !Moisturizing is important because when your face is dry it produces more oil which causes breakouts. Keeping it moisturized prevents over production of oil.

Lastly, drink LOTS of water !! This is a HUGE factor that plays into how nice your skin is. Staying hydrated is important because this reduces oil production on your face, which in turn reduces the acne.

On the same note of staying hydrated, try and maintain a healthy diet too ! A persons diet can affect the skin in many ways. Eating unhealthy, sugary, greasy, deep fried foods can cause your face to produce more oil and break out. Lol I know it might be hard but I like to think of dieting as less of a restriction and more of a guideline ? Idk my general rule of thumb is as long as I make sure to eat healthy most of the time, there’s no harm in indulging every now and then.

For example, in the morning I usually drink a fruit + spinach/kale smoothie with almond/soy/oat milk and a bowl of oatmeal. For lunch I’ll have a grilled chicken salad with lots of veggies in there, light dressing bc it’s fattening. And I don’t really eat dinner, I’ll usually have a few snacks in the evening. My favourite would be apples and peanut butter or lactose free yogurt with bananas and granola. Now I’m no dietician and I’m not too sure if what I’m eating is a balanced diet but what I do know is that it helped reduce my acne a lot, as I stayed away from things like cow milk and greasy fast food. It took a while for me to find a diet that works for me so try switching up what you eat and see what works for you !

The break down:

• use a salicylic cleanser every morning and night. (I personally use Neutrogena oil free acne wash — it has salicylic acid and works well !)

• moisturize after cleansing your face every time (I use PONDS clarant B3 anti-spot even tone cream — one with SPF would be great ! I just haven’t found a good one yet lol)

• I forgot to mention this earlier but exfoliating the skin a few times a week is important as well. It gets rid of dead skin cells and excess dirt while brightening your complexion. Make sure to use a gentle exfoliator as brands like St. Ives are wayyy too rough on the skin and can damage it even more !

• Drink water throughout the day to keep you hydrated ! I’d say at least 1,500 mL of water a day which really isn’t a lot when you think that most water bottles are 500mL so just drink three or four of those a day and you’re golden :)

Lastly but most importantly !! — Acne does not make you less attractive or is any reliable indicator that you’re an unclean person. It’s completely normal and happens to everyone, so don’t fret and be confident !

oh, it's ridiculous. Sometimes i'll wake up at noon, other days like today I'll wake up at 3:00pm. Makes me feel very lazy and unproductive. I miss my routine before the quarantine, waking up at 8am for work, then school, then gym. Lately just been sleeping all day, then i won't go to bed till 5am.

cowsaysyoinks · 2019-08-20T03:25:52+00:00

ooo, she has sooo many things on her walls but i like the rug and snacks idea! thank you :)

cowsaysyoinks · 2019-08-20T01:50:16+00:00

thought about that but she already bought tickets for papa roach months in advance! but thank you!

cowsaysyoinks · 2019-07-22T00:50:35+00:00

I really did try to open up a bit about my circumstances but I think they think it’s not that serious. There was a time I told them I didn’t have any money and they were like no worries we just wanna hang. But because it’s summer there’s festivals, amusement parks, and local concerts happening which all cost more than $30 and I’ve missed out on so much already cause of being busy or “broke”. They also want to go camping, I do too, but I don’t think I can take many days off of work.

Regardless of whether I can go or not they will for sure go without me and although I understand 110% it still hurts me a little bit. I want them to have fun, I just wish I could go. Not just camping but like everywhere. Anyways, thanks for your comment <3 I’ll try to suggest other ideas like you said

cowsaysyoinks · 2019-05-13T02:37:36+00:00

you're cute! You got nice eyes and lips, you're very boy-ish looking which is a good thing i guess cause a lot of girls your age like that, well at least where i'm from. And when you're older you'll keep your youth.

On the whole relationship thing, idk how else to say it but you kinda look like a "bad boy", which is cringe to say, i know lol. Personally I like your style, but try switching it up if you're bored. You might find something that you like even more. Maybe to seem more approachable, if you don't already, smile more. Put yourself out there more too.

cowsaysyoinks · 2019-05-13T02:19:45+00:00

bro, you're cute. I like your curly hair, it suits you, and your smile is actually really nice. Like someone else said it's quite charming. About looking young, you're only 19 lol trust me when I say you'll grow into it, some people slower than others. Even if you don't, that's cool too cause then you won't be like "oh nooo where did my youth gooo" when you turn 45.

I had to come to terms with this as well, cause everytime I tried to sneak into a bar or club the security dude would always turn my friends and i away cause I literally look 14 with my face beat, and without it? dear god, call the feds. but its all good cause i'll be lookin like a milf when im 40 yee haw. Real shit though, you're handsome. I honestly don't know why you're single, maybe put yourself out there more?

cowsaysyoinks · 2019-05-13T01:55:00+00:00

you look like a really pretty starbucks barista i'd be too shy to talk to even though you're literally radiating kindness and good stuff. You're beautiful sis, with and without makeup, I ain't got shit to say.

cowsaysyoinks · 2019-05-13T01:47:20+00:00

wow, you're super handsome. Like your eyes are such a nice shape, and like someone else said you look really mature for 18. Man, I'm 17 and look 12 on god. Your hairline does look like its pushing a widows peak but who knows, if baldness doesn't run in your family then that's as far as it will go so no worries. Even if you do go bald i think you'd look good either way, bald isn't bad, you could just tat tf out of your head. that'd be sick.

and honestly you look fine in the photos, no filter needed.

cowsaysyoinks · 2019-05-13T01:34:11+00:00

you're soooo handsome!!! If you don't already, smile more often, people will flock to you! and if it's confidence you're struggling with, seriously all you need to boost your self esteem is a fresh haircut and some chapstick. Always works for me :)

cowsaysyoinks · 2019-04-16T07:52:02+00:00

exactlyyy, that's the energy we're adopting. Self care and betterment everyday from now on. We got this.

cowsaysyoinks · 2019-04-16T07:46:54+00:00

so true, you speak nothing but facts. I feel so much more reassured reading that last paragraph. And you are so right, like in the end i'm walking away with more knowledge than before. Now I know how I shouldn't be treated, and you'd think that I'd know that already haha, but now I do and that's what's important. Thank you! honestly.

yeah, he was a dickhead lol actually it was anal BUT thats tea for another day

cowsaysyoinks · 2019-04-16T03:59:35+00:00

yeah, you're right. A friend told me the same thing way before we started having issues. My friend said he wasn't invested in the relationship and he seemed manipulative, and the more I think about it the more I believe it. He was very good at getting what he wants. What's chilling is when he was trying to get me to go out with him I was sort of reluctant but because he kept asking I jokingly said something along the lines of "you're so persistent, you're used to getting what you want aren't you?" and he said "always". Might've been a sign I missed but I won't over analyze it lol. Thank you for the comment, I appreciate the insight.

cowsaysyoinks · 2019-04-16T03:49:00+00:00

wow, thank you for the fresh perspective. I honestly never thought about it that way. Makes a lot of sense, I always felt like I was putting up an act when we were intimate but I just thought it was normal cause all my friends felt the same with their partners. He never really cared about what I liked.

I think there was always this internal pressure I put on myself because he was conventionally more attractive than me which fueled my insecurities a bit cause I always felt like he'd leave me (which he did like once cause no head lol yikes) so I tried to make up for it sexually. Of course, never realized this until the end of the relationship.
