  1. Be compassionate!
  2. Calm, cool, collected is the way to go.
  3. Text first if needed to give a small warning!
  4. Don’t ambush!
  5. Try hard to resolve the issue but know when to let it go!

THOSE roommate chats can be tough but always try your best to figure it out and work through it so you have a happy and healthy home!
