The Drug Dealer

When your roommate thinks you are dealing pot, there is a problem. Misconceptions cloud our judgment naturally. We are only human. But at the same time, one would think those misguided misconceptions would fade after nearly half a year of living together.

I was joking with a friend of mine and told her she was addicted to a TV show similar to one addicted to pot. One of "the roommates," upon hearing this, immediately asks me if I have pot in the house. One little joking simile turned sour in a matter of seconds.

While she did hold the opinion that I was a bit of a party girl last year you'd think she would get over it, watching me study night after night, rarely going out. But some people would rather hold onto their preconceived notions and believe they are correct rather than admit they were wrong and apologize.

It's a simple 3 words: I was wrong. They can't be that difficult to say can they? Even if they aren't said, they can't be so difficult to show right? maybe I hold people to an unjustly high standard but I feel as if this disrespectful attitude she takes towards me needs to come to a stop. Thoughts?
