I don't fucking understand sometimes...

So, sense my roommate is on automatic defense, I will vent to the Internet world. She brought home another dog. Walked into the house, with a quickness and shut the door behind her. She wasn't even going to say hello, but she responded to my hello to her with the door closing behind her... Mind you, she has to walk past my room to get to her's. My

you left out the part where I said "she is not mine and she is not staying" if I don't want to "get into it" that means I don't want to argue about anything. There is more to the dramas of life than to argue about a dog.

This is the second time you have brought home a dog without even running the idea past me. How many times are you going to bring dogs home without at least explaining the situation and talking to your roommate about it? And yes Leda there are many many more dramas to argue about than a dog, but you know damned well this isn't just about a dog, it's about the principle too.

it sounds as if you are being a littel judgemental there "But anyway, sooo... 'she doesn't want to get into it'. Of course she doesn't..." you don't know what she's thinking - try getting off of your pedestal for a second and approach her like a friend, not like a boss or someone in a position of authority. I bet she would have responded a lot better. I'd be mad someone brought another animal home too, but no one is perfect

First off you have no idea how I talk to Leda. And second, Leda has very poor communication skills with me and gets on the defense almost immediately. I don't need to know what she is thinking in this sort of a situation. She has a roommate and she needs tobe as courtesy for that situation, as I am for her. I could have approached her like a friend yes, but this is the second time in 2 weeks this situation has occurred, so my patience is certainly a bit thin. I think that can apply to her as well. She can approach me as a friend yet she didn't. Right, going back to the 'no one is perfect' scenario always is a good way to defend someone.

right - i have no idea how you talk to her - but then you say something mean like "leda has very poor communication skills with you..." why don't you say MORE mean things about her??!! I mean, really. judgemental much? but it's not like you don't talk smack about everyone else too, so why are we surprised?

[renfaerie]

This isn't passing judgement, this is fact and it isn't intended to be mean... And yes I admittedly talk a lot of smack, but again, nothing that doesn't have truth behind it. It seems that no matter what the situation you seem to have a bias already formed, so do I care? No, not really.
