Redditor Asks How To Deal With Roommates Who Want To Kick Her Out For Disposal Of Used Tampons

If you live as a tenant and have roommates, there is a fair chance that not everything will be to everyone's liking. Different personalities, manners, and backgrounds must conflict at some time.

But for some, even if everything is pretty great, everything can also be a reason for conflict. Recently, a Reddit user got into an awkward discussion with her roommate about disposing of her feminine hygiene products and asked Redditors for help to solve the issue.

The OP lives in a 2-bedroom apartment with Seth and his girlfriend, Julie. Juggling a packed schedule, the OP spends only 2-3 evenings at home each week.

Her rare presence has given Seth and Julie free rein over the shared spaces, allowing them to shape and command these areas to their liking. The OP said their relations were generally harmonious, but then Seth complained about her method of disposing of feminine hygiene products in the bathroom trash.

The OP disposes of these products in an opaque bin equipped with a secure lid. But recognizing Seth's discomfort, the OP tried to find a middle ground.

So, she started wrapping these products more carefully to hide them better. However, this gesture wasn't recognized by Seth.

After a following disagreement on the same topic, the OP was surprised to discover a note, co-signed by both Seth and Julie, telling her she needed to leave the apartment at the end of next month. Their lease agreement is structured on a month-to-month basis, meaning that any party could decide to move out with a month's notice.

However, the OP thinks it's unfair to be the one forced to leave. She likes the apartment's excellent location and affordability.

Now, she's in a dilemma and looking for advice on negotiating with Seth, considering the possibility of having him relocate and discerning the landlord's potential involvement and rights in such disagreements.
