Invasion of Privacy: A Roommate Horror Story

This young tenant’s privacy nightmare began when they moved in with an elderly woman who constantly invaded their personal space. Despite paying $1,000 a month for a private bedroom and bathroom, the roommate would clean the bathroom without permission, demand natural light from the bathroom skylight, and even enter the bedroom to adjust the AC vent. The tenant finally had enough and installed locks on the doors, leading to a heated confrontation. Now, they’re planning to move out as soon as possible to escape this living hell.
