Storyline: Jon thinks
that his roommate is taking advantage of him. Terri suggests that Jon have a talk
with his roommate to get things straight.
Terri:
How are
things going with you and your roommate?
Jon:
Not very
well. We're supposed to share the groceries, but I end up feeding him three meals a
day. My grocery bill is huge, you know. I really can't afford it any
longer.
Terri:
I know how you feel. I used to have a roommate like that. He never
offered to reimburse me for anything.
Jon:
I'm
really fed up with his freeloading, but I just don't know how to tell him that he should
come up with half the grocery bill, because sometimes he treats me to a meal in a
restaurant.
Terri:
Well, honesty is the best policy. Maybe you just want to have a
heart-to-heart, friend-to-friend talk with him. If he refuses to mend his ways, then
ask him to move out. You can't let him wear out his welcome.
