It cost me $X. Splitting this four ways, you each owe me $X." Maybe she'll get the hint. <BR/><BR/>Good luck with it.

It's too bad you can't just turn and walk away, but it's hard if she's in the bedroom.<BR/>Why not say to Nigel, "hey, now that ____ is living here, we can split the rent and expenses 4 ways - isn't that great". Actually she sounds like a big leech to me - give her an inch and she'll take a mile.<BR/>As for the diet soda, some people just don't get it - never do, never will.<BR/>We have a woman in my office who has celiac disease and can't eat any gluten/wheat. She talks openly about it, but people are always putting bagels and other treats on her desk that she can't have.<BR/>When I confront them, they say, "oh, I forgot".Minnesota Nicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02170043587010711783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32135187.post-65587779175256438242007-07-04T02:26:00.000-04:002007-07-04T02:26:00.000-04:00Chrissy is right.

Tell him you need to talk in private and he will find the time.<BR/><BR/>It needs to be done.<BR/><BR/>FYI - I would have lost it had they not brought home Diet! LOST.

Maybe he doesn't even want her to move in, and in that case it is his responsibility to make this clear to her. If she is going to move in, the "rules" have to be laid out clear and if she doesn't like them, well then she shouldn't move in. But you have to talk and it seems like you must start with Nigel! Good luck!Chrissie in Belgiumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02556806942193998413noreply@blogger.com
