JUST ASK I'm Patrick, but you can call me Pat. This is the space where I can help you with your daily life problems, one-on-one. Go ahead and ask away! |
Q Dear Patrick, My roommate, Jenny, doesn't wash her clothes much and they smelled. I don't know how to talk to her. What should I do? Lily |
A Hi, Lily. Problems like these are normal when people are living with roommates. I've lived with roommates before. If there is a problem, I make sure to speak up about it and not let the problem get worse. As the famous saying goes, "The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago. The second best time is now." The same goes for good communication. You can find a good time to talk about it, like in the afternoon after classes. When you talk with her, try not to be angry about it. You can use a "compliment sandwich", something like, "You've been a good roommate so far, however I can't help but notice the smell coming from your clothes. Could you please make sure to wash them?" Again, it's far better to be honest and easy-going. Don't pretend the problem will go away. Pat |
There is a girl at school, and we don't really get along. She keeps spreading rumours(传播谣言) about me and people are turning against me. What should I do? —Sam |
Some people spread rumours as a way to scare others and get popularity. But spreading rumours as a way to turn people against someone is a form of bullying(霸凌). So what can you do if you find yourself the target(目标) of rumours and social bullying?
Turn to a trusted adult for support. Talk to someone you can trust, like a parent, a teacher, or a coach. Let that person know what you're going through. Keep him or her up to date on what's going on, even as things start to get better. A trusted adult can help you feel more supported and less lonely. What's more, adults can do something to put a stop to the rumours.
Find your friends. Find a friend or two who will be willing to help you and who won't listen to rumours. If you want, share your feelings with those friends. Don't think too much about the situation, though. Spend time having fun with your friends and doing activities you enjoy.
Speak up. Try to speak to the girl who's spreading rumours. Don't be angry. Avoid shouting. Just say what you want calmly and clearly. After you've said what you want, you can simply walk away. There's no need to wait for her to say anything back. Leave her to think about what you said.
Before you try talking to the girl, though, talk with an adult about what to say. It can also help to have a friend stand with you when you talk to the girl.
