Caution and sorry for posting this here. I just needed to vent.
Why is it so hard for my room mate (a woman) to own up to fucking shit up? Burn marks on the counter top where a hot pan was place? How could it possibly be her? Piles of dirty dishes in the sink? Couldn't be. Dog piss on my couch (I have a dog but he is completely house trained) nope, couldn't be her precious poodles. Drain in the tub stopping up? Nope can't possibly be her hair clogging it up. No sir. And this morning, after she bleached her hair/dyed it last night, the tub was covered in a blue haze. The mirror was covered in crap and so were the walls. I had to clean all this before I could go to work because I didn't want it to sit on it and do more harm. Now there is what seems like a permanent blue haze on the tub. If I can't get it off, I might have to kick her ass out.
/rant
Sorry.
Pictures suck but they're just to give you an idea. My house is very clean without clutter usually. Since she got here, it's changed and I hate it.

She sounds like a real slob. Time for a new roommate?

One of the many reasons I live alone. If anything is a mess I know I'm the only one responsible for it. Shame on me!

I think so. It's hard though because we are good friends and I don't want to ruin a friendship but it's getting damn tough.

Kick her out, roommates like that aren't worth it.

Sadly it's not that simple. We're friends and I don't want to ruin a friendship. It's getting harder and harder to keep my cool though.

There's no accounting for immaturity, unfortunately. Try a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser/wet sand with superfine grit on the tub. No, scratch that, tell her to take care of it.
Unrelated: I'm liking this minor font change.

That's right! And I lived alone for almost 5 years. I was broke but it was pure bliss!

That's a tough one then.

Don't let it simmer for too long or it will boil over.
Believe me, I had a roommate situation like this. Three of us in an apartment, one had his own room. My direct roommate and I cleaned up everything we did and the other one was a complete slob...we basically ended up ignoring it, cleaning up his crap, getting fed up with him the entire time, eventually alienating him and then (with some other fuel for the fire) he assaulted my direct roommate when I wasn't home one weekend.
Don't. Wait.

Dude if a friend fucks your shit up and says it's not them then they are just walking on you. Sometimes to fix things you need to show some teeth.

That's true. She's looking for a new place now so hopefully I won't have to. We shall see.

You're right. And you're not the first person to state as such. I will tell her she has until the end of the month (she's already paid up).

Man I'm sorry that happened! We have had our discussions and she swears every time she will do better. It just temporary though.

Unrelated. I like it too. I will buy Drano and Eraser today. She will likely get to use them!

As long as you guys talk it out and such.
And I felt terrible because it wouldn't have happened if I was there...nothing too serious happened: broke down the door and tackled my roommate off his bed while screaming and swearing, but no physical injury (thankfully).
Good luck to you. Hope it works out the way you want.

Time for a man night at ur house. Start out with everything spicy and just sit around drinking beer and farting all night. Watchi movies with lots of explosions. Fart on her pillow. Alot. Make some sexist comments. She'll be gone by the morning.

I feel your pain. Lived with three women and one other guy for a year in college. It was awful. I shared a bathroom with one girl. No joke, she plugged the toilet flushing a tampon and a massive wad of TP and then blamed me for it. After she shirked away from dish duty for the third week in a row I handled things the fraternity way - she came back from studying one night to a bed full of dirty dishes. Still took her three days to eventually do it, but it got the point across.

That's disgusting. I really don't understand how people live like that.

Yeah, she's more of a man than I am at times. (not in the looks department) She would jump right in. Then I would be twice as bad off.

I empathize on the hair in the shower bit. I'm blind without glasses so one day in the shower I reach over to grab the soap and pick up a hairball the size of my fist........*shudder*

Eeeew. Thanks for the image. I need eyebleach now!

Roomates with a chick you're not fucking? MISSSTAAAAAKE.
Although, ring around the tub and some toothpaste on the mirror is what you're bitching about? You woman.

It's worse than that. I noted that in my post. And you're right, it was a mistake.

I just want to see one in person. once. Running. Doesn't have to move. I just want to hear it roar.

Now that sucks a$$. On a lighter note, a light scrub with baking soda and white vinegar should get the blue haze out of the tub.

I'm going to try that tonight. That, or Comet. Haha.

Yeah I hate people who do that.
For the tub, try using toilet cleaners that have bleach in it (Lysol, etc you get the idea). Put some on the stains for a short period, like 30 seconds and scrub/wash it off.

That's a novel idea! I will try that! Thank you!

No worries :) Hope you solve your issue with her....
