Still silent here at 218, and at this point I don't even care anymore. I wrote an angry letter to Chloe on notepad that's still on my harddrive, but there's no way in hell I'd give it to her, even though it's all true. I'd like to say that I could stand on principle and not be her friend even if she got it in her head to get over herself, but I'm not like that, and once she starts chatting again I'll be so relieved I'll just let it go. Happily, Katie and I have made up, mostly.

The silent treatment is actually down on the wikipedia as abuse. I'm mostly at the point where I don't care anymore, but there's a part in me- a jagged, red-glowy part- that is so crazy angry I don't know if I'll ever look at her the same.

Honestly? I would put up with it for another couple of months, and if you haven't made up, just let it go and move on at the end of the semester. You're roommates... it's totally arbitrary that you're together, and I think it's next to impossible to become truly good friends with a roomie, especially your first year at school. It sounds like you've tried to make it work, which is admirable -- but I would just let it go.

It sounds like there's two issues: are you going to be friends? And is your room going to be a living hell for the rest of the year? Use your judgement on the first one -- if you want to genuinely make up with her, do; but if you don't, just find a way not to be ripping each other's throats out for the next four months, even if it means you putting on a brave face and being nicer than you think she deserves. Give it another few days and if she is still being a bitch, maybe try and initiate a conversation about it.

For what it's worth, I think you're totally right. It sounds like she's being really childish about something you supposedly did that I don't think was unreasonable at all. But that isn't really the point, now, I suppose... *pout* I hope you manage to work things out.

*sigh* I've been trying and trying to think of some good advice I could give you. I've had very similar things happen to me, and it's never easy. The best thing would be to confront her, but I feel hypocritical saying that because it's something I know I could never do.

In the meantime, just, *hugs*

I did confront her initially, but it turned into the "Madeline sucks Show" and I'd prefer not to go into it again, and supposedly some day she's going to get over it.

*hugs* Thanks, though.

Many more here.
