MUCH ADVICE NEEDED

Discussion

Hi everyone just wanted to share and get some ADVICE but I'm lowk so cooked. So for some context last week I was kinda feeling some distance with my roommate because I just started feeling uncomfortable and just weird. I'm also weirdly scared of my roommate and I feel like I can't fully breathe. This only started this semester, so not last semester. But I've also been hanging out with people who are not in my suite, so they've been feeling some distance too. And I do love everyone, I just dk if I can live with them anymore. Also I feel like I'm not super close with anyone, like I'd be okay with not living with them. At first I was worried about losing my friend group, but we lowk only bonded when we were going out. Anyways, I've found many other people that I'm close with and really love being around. Continuing on, we just selected housing for next year and we're living in Hardin. Long ahh walk, ik. I've only recently decided that I can't do it anymore. Like I can't live with someone else in the SAME ROOM. I also feel like I don't want to make my roommate upset since I can be disorganized sometimes and I just feel like we're not that compatible. I feel like I just need my own room if I'm going to live with those people. So I was going to talk to my roommate and tell them I'm prob going to swap with another friend so that they take my place and then I can just cancel my housing agreement and live off campus. This way my roommate has a buddy yk? But I'm not sure my friend actually wants to switch. Or I don't drop my housing once I switch out and live with a friend I actually wouldn't mind sharing a room with on campus (they're already in a room but with random people), but that is really complicated and we have to plot a lot to end up in a room together. WHAT DO I DO? Do I put me first or what...

Many thanks in advance :)
