making a commitment somehow someway whether it be to clearing this situation up with your roommate, committing yourself to moving out, committing yourself to moving them out - in either case, whatever you choose to do, stick with it - don't say one day you are going to move out and then worry the next day on how they are acting and how they can change so you both could live in peace. talk it out with your roommate and above all else - try to enjoy yourself. don't make what you are feeling now the root of your future. sometimes, people come into our lives to teach us a little bit and/or expose a little bit of ourselves to us. there was a meaning behind your meeting and living with one another - maybe one is supposed to be the "clear-headed" one and the other isn't so that you both could be a model for the other one to learn something about themsleves and their potential, from.
