In 24 hours I have to move back to my flat for Uni as I have been home on holidays. My flatmate lies constantly to me and steals stuff, like food. I dread returning. She is very 2 faced and blames everything on other people. When the flat food I helped pay for was all used up she blamed our former flatmate who moved out just before the holidays. I have since talked to this flatmate and she was horrified by the accusation. She twists everything to suit herself and is subtly very manipulative. There are many other circumstances she has hurt me with. She is also a committed Christian.

I fear I will say something I may regret to her. My patience and grace is wearing very thin. I also tend to cry when I am angry. I have 6 weeks longer of living there and then, thank God, I am moving out. Yes, it sounds like a short time, but living with her is awful. Please can you pray for wisdom in dealing with her?

Thank you so much <3

I have tried to be honest before about her behaviour. When I do, no matter how tactful I am, she ends up all emotional and gets incredibly defensive. She never takes anything on board and blames everything/everyone else. Bring on the 20th August when I move out.
