please.. can anyone help me with these problems..

Answer 1

Hey don't worry about hurting her feelings! She obviously doesn't worry about yours. What sort af a "Friend" treats you like that anyway.. your better off without her, ask if you can change rooms, gather up some family photos to hang in your new room and surround yourself with nice friends who support you when your down.
Good luck =)

Answer 2

If you feel trapped by your roommate then you should definatley get a new one next time around. She is not thinking of you when she is picking on you all the time.

Get out of that room and make some new friends away from your roommate. Join some study groups or school activities to meet new people. That will not make you dread going back go school so much and take your mind off of your family for a little while. Get some family photos and hang them up and then start getting out a little more to enjoy yourself.

Answer 3

The first year is the toughest. You will begin to meet new people , and someone you can enjoy being good friends with will come along. Be patient for now. Do stand up to the roommate when she criticizes you. Tell your roommate that you are getting tired of hearing her criticize you. Tell her that she needs to pay more attention to her own business and less attention to yours. Tell her that what she is doing to you is disrespectful and that if you are going to get along as roommates, she needs to treat you with the same respect that you treat her with. If you let her know that she is intimidating you, she will continue to do it.

Answer 4

The missing is either you are too free or still on the growing ages,so it is natural to behave such way.
Don't worries,everyone feel the same as you.
Let keep a busy timetable on every minutes & monthly till you come back home to your family.
Write down everything to made u so busy and all trapped is free from your heart or your friend hand.

Answer 5

Missing your family is natural & you will Get used to being away from your family as time goes by.Tell your roommate that you are not happy with her criticism.Do not find another roommate .just talk to her & explain how you feel.if she does not stop forget about her & continue with what you feel is right in the same room.you should not be intimidated by anyone.

Answer 6

First off. Try lessining the conversations between Home and where your at. All its gonna do is make you more home sick. Try going out and doing things you like to do or going to student events. You might meet someone (love interest or just a friend) to hang out. Alot of people meet by doing what they love. What you need is a friend on campus. Someone you can relate and hang out. When it comes to your roomate just tell them your switching roomates. Its not her, tell her you came here to explore something new and you thought it was time you started. Whenever you get settled in you can keep contact with home. Just get settled in first :( good luck
