Default Re: Physical violence with roomates

Soko,

If anyone ever tries to start that sort of "condescending agreement" you have to check it right there before it spirals into your current type of situation.

Since it has gone this far, I would speak to them separately and seriously. Before I started I would let them know I needed a few minutes of their time and that you had something serious to talk about. Let each one know that you talked to the other one and that it is not cool for them to treat you that way. Let them know that you notice it and it bothers you. Then talk to them both at the same time and tell them the same thing.

If they start again, call them on it. When they agree with you sarcastically, say "Excuse me? It seemed like you were being sarcastic." If they continue, you have to check it with something like "Do you have something to say bitch? It sounds like you do," or some similar posturing to let them know that you are not joking. Then after they back down, laugh and continue the conversation.
