lighthearted, mostly 😂

i’m on holiday with some friends from work, first time we’ve ever been away together but we have done nights away.

I’m sharing a room with one person who doesn’t really like sunbathing or being by the pool. Fair enough we’re all quite chill and have been doing our own thing and then meeting up in the evening for dinner/drinks.

She goes back up to the room usually about 1pm to read and chill out whereas I’ll stay by the pool til it gets too chilly probably about half 6/7. We always make a plan for dinner in the group chat and the. I always put a message saying what time I expect to be back at the room because obviously will have to shower and get ready. Every day this week she’s been in the room for 6/7 hours alone and only gone in the shower when i’ve come back from the pool (it’s like she waits for me to get back then runs in there) and she takes forever meaning I have to then rush. I got fed up of this and asked when she was leaving after lunch if i could use the shower at 6 yesterday and she agreed, but when i got back to the room (at 6) she was in the shower! and took a good 45 minutes for i had to rush again.

aibu to think it’s a bit selfish if you’re in the room all day to wait to use the shower until the person you’re sharing with gets back from the pool, making them rush to get ready?

She’s selfish. She wants to use the shower first but also refuses to go just ahead of your return to the room. You alerted her to what time you’d be back and needing a shower but she purposely ignored you. She resents you and is acting like it’s her room not a shared one.

I’d be popping back early again then returning to the pool. I’d be ‘forgetting things’ and popping back. I’d be showering during the day. I’d be doing anything I can to put the shits up her and have her make an idiot of herself by rushing into the shower when she hears your return.

Absolutely. I would make it my mission to make her as miserable as possible for the last few days

I know! Such a shame because the situation was so funny but I think other posters got all serious and scared her off...

DrSbaitso · 04/07/2023 18:51

Serious?

I see someone's posts have been deleted. Honestly I don't know why. They weren't the sweetest but I don't recall them being abusive.

@RobynsMama

please ignore all the chaos and give us an update! We are dying to know what happened 😂

CaptainSmarnacles · 04/07/2023 21:12

Maybe she's a shy pooer?

Who waits until she hears the "beep" on the hotel door, showing the OP is back in the room?

Surely then that means she is a "performance pooer", waiting for OP to be her audience

MykonosMaiden · 05/07/2023 04:08

Has the roommate clunked the OP on the head with a shower and buried her under the patio????

JGRAN · 05/07/2023 06:06

I have a mental health issue about twats. Get your own room

This is also possible! 💩🎺

Fallenangelofthenorth · 06/07/2023 19:13

@RobynsMama Are you home now?

Surely now you can update the thread 🙏

ZeldaWillTellYourFortune · 06/07/2023 19:17

I really thought she'd update us!

Popped back for update ☹️

Emotionalsupportviper · 06/07/2023 20:20

Still no update . . .

I feel betrayed . . . .

😟

FuckoffeeBeforeCoffee · 06/07/2023 20:27

I'm pretty sure it is bullshit and there's no conclusion because they couldn't come up with one.

44PumpLane · 07/07/2023 21:55

@RobynsMama so how did it all pan out?
