So on Friday, I was going to have dinner with her, her boyfriend, and another couple. But they were going to Mansfield (which is really far away) and I had plans to meet some other friends so I decided not to go.
Today, she and I were talking on Facebook and I ask her how dinner went. She tells me that she had an awesome time; they ate at the restaurant her boyfriend works at and waited for his shift to be over to go to a hookah lounge. The other couple (who are both over 21) brought beer and were passing it around to everyone, which really isn't a big deal because I know my roommate is pretty good at handling alcohol so whatevz. But then she told me that afterwards, they all decided to go smoke weed in one of the two cars they brought.
Now she tells me that even though they were all high, she lets the other guy drive her car back to school (around 30-40 miles I think) and she rides with her boyfriend. So okay. I'm kind of pissed off now, because I like all of these people and I'm generally okay with drinking and smoking, but neither is okay when combined with driving.
So now, I tell her that if she ever tells me about her driving while high again, I'm going to hide her car keys. Then she logs of Facebook and I get the feeling she's not going to talk to me for a while.
I kind of feel like I'm overreacting but at the same time it still pisses me off that she's going to do stuff like that. I know it's college and everyone feels like they have to be irresponsible but I was really hoping that I wouldn't have to deal with another roommate like that.
Of course this is also after she's told me that she and her boyfriend have sex all the time and for a while were doing so without protection. Not only do I not really want to talk to close friends about sex, but every time I made jokes about her "sexiling" me next year, she'd laugh and tell me that she and her boyfriend don't do anything more than make out. Part of this is because she gives the impression of being really conservative (which is partially because she wears a purity ring).
I KNOW THIS HAS BEEN LONG but sdjhfjk it just really bothers me. I know there's no way to stop her from doing it but I just wish she wouldn't tell me about everything (and I'm going to tell her that the next time I talk to her). So I'm posting this here because I'm sure someone will read it and there's no one I can talk to right now because my boyfriend is asleep.
And I know I probably sound really a**l and high strung when it comes to illicit activities but I really don't care. It just makes me really nervous that my roommate is already worrying me this much and we don't move in together for another two weeks.
tl;dr- my roommate next year has some habits that make me uncomfortable (weed and sex)
Oh also I think I offended her when I told her that kissing someone right after they've taken a hit sounds disgusting.
In hindsight, I am infinitely glad that I didn't go with them on Friday.
EDIT So today, I was talking to Josh about all of this, and he agrees that she's definitely doing dumb things. But when we were talking, we also realized that there's a good chance she's been lying about a bunch of stuff.
Starting in the spring, my roommate (Amanda) would tell us (myself and Jason) that another friend (Corinne) was saying mean things about us and about Amanda's boyfriend. So Jason and I would get mad, because we know that Corinne is kind of a jealous person and is also really competitive. But she would never say anything to our faces, so only Amanda would hear her say this stuff.
A few weeks ago, Amanda told me that she came back from class to find two notes under her: one from Corinne and one from our friend Ali. The one from Corinne was supposed to go to Amanda's boyfriend; it basically said that she thought Amanda didn't deserve him. The one from Ali said that Corinne had given it to him so he could send it to Trevor (Amanda's boyfriend), but that he thought it was too mean and he felt Amanda should see it.
Now I kind of realize that there's very little chance this is possible, for many reasons. The simplest is that Ali is the nicest person anyone has ever met, and even if he thought the note was wrong, he would have given it back to Corinne, not Amanda.
So Josh and I realized that there's a good chance Amanda has been lying about all the mean stuff Corinne has said in order to make us hate Corinne; likewise, it seems like Amanda has told Corinne that we dislike her because of what Amanda has told us. And now that I think about it, Corinne didn't start being outwardly mean for a while after we heard about her doing these underhanded things.
So I know this sounds like a lot of stupid drama, but it's really starting to bother me. I'm almost completely sure that she's been lying about some of this stuff, or at least blowing it out of proportion, and I don't want to have to live with it next year.

Thanks Lydia. <3 I realized that she wasn't driving, but that hardly matters. I'm hoping part of why she's doing stuff like this is because right now she's only around people that are, so it might stop after more people who don't smoke move back. But still, it bothers me. And I haven't been online all day to talk to her. D:

Statistically, it's more dangerous to have passengers in the car than it is to drive while stoned.
This is why I get pissed off when people drive with passengers in the car.

You have every right to be bugged out, especially if you're not used to stuff like this.
Like I'm kind of a "Do whatever you want to do" person, because who am I to tell some one what to do/not do, but if one of my friends ever got into a car and drove while they were stoned/drunk or got into a car with some one else was stoned/drunk, i would immediately do something about.
especially because not only could it severely injure them, but their surroundings.
I totally get you btw because I'm a ttl prude and have never kissed anyone ever, unprotected sex is ******** stupid unless you want to get pregnant, and I've never gotten drunk or high. WOMP.

This is why I get pissed off when people drive with passengers in the car. it's not exactly possible most of the time to drive on your own. and not particularly environmentally friendly for everyone to drive themselves either. I THOUGHT YOU CARED ABOUT THAT s**t, CLONE? i am disappoint. neutral
