THIS WEEK'S QUESTION:

Dear Chase & Logan,
I'm best friends with my roommate, but she recently got a new boyfriend and they're ALWAYS hanging out in our room. I don't mind it every once in a while, but it gets really annoying when I'm trying to study and I can hear them giggling and talking baby-talk to one another. Also, whenever I just want to hang out with her, she always invites him along. Do you have any advice for telling her how I feel, without ruining our friendship?
Signed, THIRDWHEEL


 

Dear THIRDWHEEL,
I've got some good news and some bad news. First, the good news: You have every right to tell your roommate that you'd appreciate it if they didn't spend so much time in your room. It's your room, too, and you deserve to have some privacy every once in a while. Okay, now for the bad news: You really need to step back and ask yourself, "Am I just being jealous?" I've had many friends complain of the same problem, and later they realized that they were jealous that their roommate had a boyfriend or girlfriend, and they didn't. So, before you confront your friend, make sure you're honest with yourself first. I hope that helps.

 

Dear THIRDWHEEL,
I have a simple solution to your problem: Introduce me to your roommate. Once she meets the Loganator, she'll dump that loser. And the best part is: I never waste my time hanging out in girl's rooms – they're so boring and... GIRLY – so you'll have all the privacy you'd need. Of course, there's a good chance that you're going to want to spend time with me, too. I'm sure we could work out some kind of schedule. Why don't you stop by my room later this week and we can talk? Oh, and bring pics of your roommate.
