How to deal with a frenemy that's a roommate?
I can't exactly move out. and she's not bad all the time. she's self absorbed enough to not notice that I actually don't like her any more. I'm trying to match her superficiality in conversation and skid by with distant politeness. I won't go into details but she's extremely toxic as a friend, we used to be so close and now I've been hurt by her emotional distance, her rudeness (cancels hangout times constantly, has loud sex when I've mentioned how it bothers me, never cleans).
We were once pretty close, but in waves, I would be so happy when she'd open up to me, and then she'd cancel or go back to being cagey. She has few female friends. I don't want to be her friend. I have to deal with her though, since we live together. I don't want to screw up the balance in the house and make it spelled out that I don't like her. But my blood pressure goes up when I deal with her. How do I deal with my emotions and maintain my composure/sanity?
