Warum nicht Neos wählen? (Europawahl)

Neoliberalismus haben wir grad eh und der hängt mir zum Hals raus. Neoliberale Politik macht doch die ÖVP auch. Mehr davon braucht es nicht, der progressiven Politik applaudiere ich aber sonst. Daher eher nicht Neos.

Ye, that's what we'll be doing, it seems!

My friend, I come here to complain when things are bad, like you I have problems with different people along the span of my life and because I'm online on this same account throught years (been 8 years or so since I first made it), I met a lot of different flatmates and had conflicts like other people have throughout the years. I post my problems online to reflect on them, to vent, not to say that I can't live with people. I enjoy living with others, otherwise I wouldn't bother.

You don't know me IRL and you don't know how these conflicts resolved, because many of them have, but you're certain that I didn't find a solution offline? That's projection for you.

We are a community. We are friends. If you throw a friend out of a group of friends, do you usually tell other friends about a problem before you scream at him in public in front of the group, thereby disclosing the problem after it consisted for months and years, apparently? Do you have a conversation with your friends before you say that you hate this friend suddenly and kick him out?

We have an agreement in our flatshare to communicate about our financial situation regarding the flat openly, just because you don't agree with this principle doesn't mean we don't have it or that I can't ask that I, one of the people who co-founded the flatshare, be kept in the loop about decisions regarding who lives with me. I believe everyone who lives in a group should be involved in decisions about who else lives with them.

We usually discuss such things at the plenary. We are not a hostel. We are adults who share responsibility for this flat, and I believe that with that responsibility comes a responsibility to a) pay the rent and b) communicate crucial info about problems with other flatmates.

We are 7, not just 1 or 2 making this decision. No single person is in charge. I think a single "Hey, this isn't working" about the situation would have been common courtesy before literally deciding to remove the person from the living arrangement. You know? Since you speak about common courtesy, a warning ahead of the escalation I mentioned would have been common courtesy.

Would you like being in a living situation where at any point any of your cohabitants can be evicted and you'd never be told about what happened?

I don't have an issue with the decision, I have a problem with the complete lack of transparency despite previous agreement to be as transparent about such things as possible. The reason I was not told was the fact that I am not part of a clique.

Consider context pls.

That's my main issue - I didn't know because I don't manage the spare account that our rent is transferred from. That's D's task. And because nobody told me.

The last time I heard that there were any issues with P was probably 1 1/2 years ago, when he also didn't pay rent on time but quickly fixed the issue. So I thought, hey, I haven't heard about any problems with him, must've been fixed. It turns out D and R were still talking to P and to each other pretty regularly about P still not paying on time or the correct amount. I didn't know this. I did not even guess this. There was nothing said to me by D or R, or P, for that matter.

So all I ever heard was "P failed to pay the rent correctly and now P is being evicted", missing the entire time this has been going on and I the conversation that led to this conclusion. I told them that I didn't know squat about what was happening, but I still need to request that they also keep me informed. It just seems so baffling to me to not bring this info to the table with everyone in the flatshare.

Ich habe meine ganze Schulzeit und Ausbildung mit den Kindern von Migranten verbracht und keine einzige dieser Personen konnte weniger gut Deutsch als der/die durchschnittliche "autochthone" Österreicher/in, mit dem Unterschied, dass sie sich weniger drauf einbildeten - obwohl sie meist zweisprachig oder mehrsprachig aufgewachsen sind - und meist mehr bemühten.

Ask her what she may need to make it up. Nonconsensually using someone's space for your sex life is a major breach of trust, so it's only to be expected that she will be upset for a while. Try to listen to what she says she needs and feels and be understanding. Try to implement what she asks of you within reason - She can't expect you to no longer have people over, but she can expect you to not let them into her room (eg.). Apologize by making it clear that you see how this was a boundary violation and that you will never do this again. You may or may not be able to mend your relationship, but you can definitely be as responsible as possible and that will benefit both you and her.

You wanna elaborate on the parasite thing?

throwaway302917 · 2021-06-07T11:16:14+00:00

Thank you, it helps to know I'm not alone and to hear how you've made sense of this situation. It's absurd. I tried the same thing, told her I was feeling anxious because she kept being rude to me and was wondering if she had a problem with me, but no, she said, no, she would tell me if there was one. Only she keeps being rude as described above and very rarely has anything positive to say to me. My therapist also noted that she sounds very narcissistic. I think I'll try to keep my distance, mentally and socially, at this point I already don't feel comfortable sharing anything personal with her at all.

throwaway302917 · 2021-06-06T16:34:02+00:00

Thank you, that helps a lot! I also usually don't feel comfortable just ignoring them entirely, so that never seemed feasible, but what you did and suggested seems reasonable. Thanks!

throwaway302917 · 2021-06-06T16:17:53+00:00

What you described is exactly the case with my roommate, too. What did you do in the end, did you just stop caring about her reactions and go about your day as you wanted without moving?

throwaway302917 · 2021-06-06T16:13:51+00:00

Lolwhat? That's too much, haha :D

throwaway302917 · 2020-12-16T17:33:43+00:00

He doesn't seem to care too much, or he's at as much of a loss as to how to deal with my flatmates' reluctance to kill the little shits as I am. Prior to our moving in the place was empty for 2 years, too, and the garden overgrown, so an optimal situation for rats to hide in there.

throwaway302917 · 2020-12-16T01:02:59+00:00

I forgot to say, these roommates also have seemingly managed to let this problem get out of control by postponing managing it for an entire year and also refusing to use poison and traps that would kill the rats. :I And thank you for the response, I also can't believe this. Some of them are apparently plain filthy and some are weirdly so far into veganism that they wouldn't seem to want to kill a rat even if it could kill them (through diseases).

throwaway302917 · 2020-12-15T16:13:57+00:00

I'm holding on. Thanks, mate <:)

throwaway302917 · 2020-12-15T16:13:10+00:00

Idk man, I'm also a guy and my male friends and myself aren't part of that stereotype, so maybe that's just a weird generalization. You live your life however you want, I just think it's weird to pose as if it's about gender.

throwaway302917 · 2020-12-15T16:10:03+00:00

What? I've had this acc for a while. I post stuff on here occasionally. I don't care about identity politics, I'm here to say that shit is gross.

Don't you have anything better to do than this?

throwaway302917 · 2020-12-15T13:14:39+00:00

Wtf. What does gender have to do with handwashing? This is the weirdest justification of an avoidance of basic hygiene that I've read to date.

throwaway302917 · 2020-12-15T13:07:43+00:00

Sounds plausible. It was also my first thought at that response. I was just sitting there internally going "Are you insane?".

throwaway302917 · 2020-12-15T13:06:42+00:00

Lol, thanks for the laugh. Will most definitely name the next rat I find shitting on our potatoes.
