Alright so this semester I transferred to UMaine and love it. My roomate is cool as shit. Into the outdoors like me, fishes, hunts, camps all that shit which I love too. Hes also in sports like me. Introduced me to his friends and shit. Gave me rides to the grocery store and shit. Laid back and chill just like me, great dude. However... He is a huge mess. Never cleans his shit. The room smells TERRIBLE , not that I know personally. I have no sense of smell but my friends always bitch about it and it sucks because I keep my half of the room fairly clean, I mean Im not a neat freak by any means but at least I have dignity lol. I have tried everything, air fresheners, air freshener spray, inscene and candles. Nothing works. Im pretty sure its his clothes since they have tons of fish guts and shit like that left on them pretty much. He also has a severe lack of hygeine, usually smells like BO. It just sucks because I cant bring girls over or friends really and I've tried everything. I feel like it would be a dick move to talk to him about it since I'm too nice and I dont want to fuck up our friendship. What to do next?
I feel for ya mang. I dont know what to say other than your going to have to do something you wont want to do, as I see it here are your options; Ignore it and deal with it Talk to him about it or subtle hints Find a new roomate Start becoming his mommy Which do you think is best? I gotta tell ya, if i couldnt bring a girl to the pad because of him, it would be on like donkey kong and id be doing something about it. Id tell him that I couldnt bring women over, and I am constantly having to smell foul odors. If he doesnt care, id find myself a new roomate, or do what I could to find a new place to live.
That's a tough one. I definitely see your problem. That's awesome though that you're not a dick about it and you are still friends with him and stuff. Too many people would take one whiff and not even bother to talk to the kid or anything. Does he shower regularly and stuff?? Maybe buy some really good smelling body wash and tell him how good it is and offer to let him use some or something.
Thanks for the advice guys. Luckily due to my lack of smell, I cant smell it at all. Yeah he doesnt shower too often but its definitly something in the room on his side since I cleaned mine today. He does smell though sometimes. What would be the easiest way to say it? This girl from back home I have a thing with is coming up in a week or 2 and I dont want it smelling like shit in there.
have you ever told him straight to his face that he smells like shit? I had this buddy back in high school that never showered, and I told him he smelled like shit every day, but I did it in a joking manner. eventually he started taking showers wearing clean clothes, and I feel like I made a difference in the kids life (or at least those who have to be around him)
all i know is this shit is mad funny- check it, give him some bullshit excuse like yo im bout 2 bring some hunniez or my peoples over, so clean this up i don't want the fam n friends 2 see my shit messy it would be disrespectful towards them. after he hears that he'll clean up the crib.... and about the B.O, just break it down to him, like once in a while out of the blue just come out and say yo it smells like under arm pits n sour pussy in this bitch.. and eventually he'll get the hint or feel bad n start showering up.. it's all logical holmz, get into that *****z head
Good idea man. I think that would work about the messy room thing. Ill say my girl comin up is a neat freak(lie) and that she will freak if the rooms all dirty. I think its something ON the clothes though, so cleaning them may not help that much. They need to be washed.
tell some hippie stoner dude youll smoke him out if he comes up to your room and tells your room mate he smells like shit and needs to take a shower and clean his room and then be like oh man im ripped, your so rude hippie stoner dude
Is his side of the room a real mess?? Buy some cleaning things and stuff and tell him you have a friend coming and want the room as clean as possible.
I don't understand how some people can smell so strongly of B.O. and not notice unless they have some smelling deficiency or something. I would sit him down and say something like this: "Look man, I'm only telling you this cause I'm your friend and I'm trying to look out for you. I know this might be embarrassing, but just remember I'm here to help. You smell like B.O. No one is going to be around you if you continue to smell like this. People have commented about it before. Do something." Seriously, he needs to hear it.
what dorm you in, alot of my old high school buddies goto umo. and yea just be like dude it smells like shit in here lets clean up.
Find two sufficiently attractive female friends that you're on good enough terms with that they'll be willing to do you a favor. Arrange a fake double-date with them and your roommate, emphasizing the strong possibility that he can land some fine poon. Have his "date" get herself setup with a hotel/motel room under an assumed name, paying with cash only. Her task will be to use her innate wiles to secuce him, and get him back to her room with promises that petting of the third kind will occur. Coordinate yourselves so that you can reach the hotel room before they do, hiding in a nearby closet. If possible, the three of you will want to enter such that you're not seen by employees or other patrons. When they arrive, you need to simply bludgeon him to death, but be careful not to actually open any wounds. In preparation, you'll need to procure plenty of hydrofluoric acid, as well as enough high-density polyethylene plastic to line the bathtub. The plastic will prevent the acid from burning through the bathtub. Place his body into the tub first, and then begin adding acid. Make this a very gradual process, only adding acid as need be. This way, it will be saturated enough from dissolving the body that it won't pose any threat to the bathtub when you're finished. Just continue this until the body is completely dissolved, then allow all of it to drain. You're now smelly-roommate-free.
Yeah and dress up in a SWAT suit with gas-masks and a rifle on your back or something... And a belt with additional cans of Axe. HxC
my mom has a problem like that with someone at her work. she smells, doesnt clean her clothes, has 50000000 cats. smells like cat piss. all the people at work keep hand sanitizer, disinfectant spray, and air freshener around. and they have talked to her on several occaisions. sometimes talking doesnt work but maybe it will in your case.
haha i like this idea XD lmao but seriously, try to hint it a bit and maybe he'll get it. if not then just lie and say whoever is coming over hates a messy room, im sure that will work.
