So my roomie does not believe me that her boyfriend and I are JUST FRIENDS. He is more like a brother to me than anything. I am not at all attracted to him and he isn't to me. We have a lot in common and talk about a lot of things that we can't really talk to others about. He even wants to fix me up with one of his friends. We're in college and he has told me that I am like the people he hangs out with at home and he hasn't had that since he's been here and that is why we connect so well. I can't just tell my roommate that I am not at all attracted to her boyfriend but I have never given her a reason not to trust me. She talks about it behind our backs with one of our best friends but won't say anything to me about it. There is some tension when we are in the same room but we don't fight about it. We've never really sat down and talked about it because she won't listen to my point of view about it, she'll just cry and won't belive me. Any advice?

She is good friends with one of his roommates and does the same thing. She'll get to their house and talk to the roommate for hours before she says much to the boyfriend. It's the same situation on both sides but yet I'm wrong for talking to him. She never says anything to me about it but she does complain to the boyfriend.

If you want your friendship with your roomie to work, you HAVE to talk to her no matter what.
She probably doesn't expect that you,ve heard a lot of what she's said about you so if you bring it up in a no bull s h i t kind of way, hpoefully she'll listen.
This happened to me once too with one of my friends. I got sick of hearing about it and after a while, it didn't stop like I'd hoped. (I thought that if THEY were together long enough, she'd see that WE really were just good friends.)
So I talked to her. I said, "I know what you think and it's crap."
I did my best to make sure that she knew that we were only friends and that it hurt both of our feeling for her to think that either one of us would do that to her.
Eventually she got it.
Good luck

For most women - you are woman and not some precocious child who should not be thinking of boys - a male friend is just the next penis waiting in line to shake the dew off his lilly in her salliwop.

You are taking her attention that her boyfriend should be giving to her. It does not matter how you are getting the attention. You are still getting her attention that he should be spending on her. You never know what might happen to change your feelings from friends to interested.
