That may be true, sure. I always sacrificed finacially to do it, but it was sooooo worth my sanity.
I had a roomie one time with a penchant for sleeping with random guys. I got up one morning, went to the kitchen and found some naked guy looking at my dishes. Not cool! that was the last of my college-type living arrangements.

maybe she is dressing up as a mummy by wrapping herself up head to toe when you are not around. Seriously though i would ask her about it but not worry too much. With all the roommate horror stories i have heard it sounds like things have been working out for the most part.

If that's it, you are lucky. If it bothers you, keeps it in your room and let her make her own arrangements.

Every time I think of running off my roommate, I think to myself, at least he doesn't do drugs, eat my food, complain about my music etc.

The next time you see your roommate, you ask her. And, whatever she says, that's my answer. *shakes head*

I don't know if she has some sort of toilet paper obsession but she likes to open multiple rolls of toilet paper at a time and have them out (so when I buy the toilet paper, which is at least 80% of the time), I have to hide it in my room. She also seems to go through a ridiculous amount of toilet paper, so much in fact that it's not physically possible for her to be using it just to wipe her butt. One time I was gone a day and a whole roll of toilet paper had been used. What is she doing with all this toilet paper????

She went on vacation for a bit so I relaxed and took the toilet paper out of my room, only to come back one day and find 3 rolls of toilet paper unwrapped, so it was clear she was back.

Should I just let this slide since toilet paper is cheap and we don't have any other problems in general? I don't really know her very well and we only very rarely talk, usually for less than a couple of minutes at a time and never about anything serious. It's just really, really annoying and bizarre.
LOL I have to say--your post is refreshingly funny for the usual stuff those goes on in this board. I feel your frustration. My fiance isn't nearly as bad as this girl you're talking about, but I am often mystified at how fast toilet paper goes with her. I was just thinking about this a few weeks ago.

1. This whole thread is awesome.

2. As a serious recommendation, I wouldn't use soap on your behind. Reason being it dries up that "area", and just like dry lips and hands, a dry bumhole can "crack" (pun somewhat intended). Trust me on this- not a fun experience. Just use the "Wet Ones" instead, they don't dry you out AND they keep you nice and clean!

She might have Crohn's disease or colitis or some sort of digestive issues.
