    Saying no to unreasonable demands is a skill we must learn. And in college life, how to refuse a roommate who always asks you to bring food is one of the important points.

    We can explain our situation directly to our roommates and show that we are not suitable to help bring meals, and I believe that most roommates will understand, so that we can avoid delaying our own affairs and avoid unnecessary misunderstandings between us and our roommates. Communication between roommates is very necessary, not only does it not hurt each other's feelings, but also allows it to complete the required things more efficiently. So find a time to communicate well.

    But be mindful of your attitude.

    When we are in college, we may meet all kinds of roommates, they will often ask you to help bring food, especially on weekends, everyone does not want to get up to buy food, at this time if you want to go to buy food, they will definitely let you help bring food, but if there are more than 8 people in a dormitory, there are 4 people at the least, how to refuse roommates always let you help? If you are a person who is decisive and confident enough, and your roommate's requirements are excessive, then you can tell him bluntly that you do not have that obligation and will not help him bring things anymore. But you still can't be too soft-hearted, you must be ruthless to reject him once, so that he will respect you more and will not let you become his coolies.

    If you really don't want to be so decisive, you feel that everyone is friends and can't hurt your feelings, but you really want to refuse, you can tell him euphemistically: No, I may not be able to come back after a while, or find a reason to say that you have to help others bring things today, you are too late to get it. After saying these few words, you must leave quickly, if you are a roommate who is very knowledgeable, under normal circumstances, you will not ask you, people must learn to improvise, if he really asks you something, just reply:

    It's a secret. You can solve it in a joking way, for example, when he asks you to bring something and you are not in good interest, you can say to him in a joking tone: It's okay to bring something, but you have to share it with me, otherwise I don't care.

    In fact, it is better to say this, both amiable and not hurtful feelings, most people will understand, after all, everyone is the same age, and there is no generation gap, if the roommate does not speak or does not agree, then decisively reject him, after all, everyone is independent, and you don't owe him, there is no need to blame yourself for this. It is normal for roommates to help each other in getting along, after all, everyone has difficulties, so you can also let you so help you bring things, under normal circumstances, if you often help him bring things before, he will also be embarrassed to refuse you, after a long time you are a roommate will understand, and you will no longer be easy to call you. In short, when getting along with roommates, you will definitely encounter the situation of bringing them food, in fact, everyone is a roommate, once or twice, even if you are often asked to bring things, it is not very good, after all, no one wants to be a labor force for free, you must know that people still have to be equal to each other, this time you help me, next time I help you, is the way to get along for a long time.

    Bringing food to the dormitory, a thing that often happens, maybe you don't bring it will destroy the relationship between the dormitory, and you are embarrassed not to bring it, so what should we do?

    Helping roommates bring food and get couriers has become a must-do thing for contemporary college students.

    However, it's okay to do one thing occasionally, and doing it repeatedly can really affect the feelings of roommates. We saw here that the topic of roommates helping to bring meals was basically the first three who refused to help roommates bring meals. One is that it is very troublesome, and the other is that sometimes your roommates ask you to bring everything you have to wait in line for a long time, which takes up your own personal time.

    In addition, this thing has become natural, and after a long time, you will feel unbalanced. Sometimes it is also very difficult to help roommates get express delivery, generally the dormitory is very far from the door of the university, some universities basically have to walk for half an hour, and it is really hard to get the express delivery under the scorching sun when the weather is hot. <>

    My advice is to try not to be together, we can't afford to provoke us, we can't hide!

    You can secretly go out to eat or something, and don't let him know anything, and then when you're outside, he sends you a WeChat call** to ask you to bring something, and you can pretend that you didn't see it, and when you go back and ask you, you just say I didn't see it, you can buy it yourself.

    If you say you want to drink milk tea in the dormitory, you pretend to be stupid, I want to drink it too, do you want to buy it? Bring me a drink.

    You can also say that you didn't write your homework, and you can stay away from it anyway and pretend to be stupid. <>

    Of course, you can also just don't bring it, explain it to your roommate, say it directly, maybe your roommate will also express your understanding, if you think you are stingy, I think, such a person will not be worthy of your in-depth communication. So, we can boldly say "no" when we finish. It's always like this, and it can make people think you're a good bully.

    Bring food: Don't go back to the dormitory after eating, it's inconvenient to have something.

    The above doesn't need to be returned in seconds to dry When you miss a meal, you say, "Oh, I'm in the library, I didn't look at my phone" Just make excuses Refuse a few times is a brainy person who knows it Don't be afraid of being tough It's just a big deal It's just a four-year roommate, do you still look forward to a deep sisterhood after graduation? Wake up! Most of them won't.

    How do you refuse a roommate who always asks you to bring food? I believe that this is something that every college student experiences, bringing food to a roommate, this is originally a matter of effort, if it is only once or twice, I believe everyone is also willing to help, but when there are many times, we will also feel impatient, so how should we refuse?

    1. Pretend not to see the message. Every time you go out to buy food, your roommate will send you a message from the dorm asking you to bring food, then we can pretend not to see the message, and when you go back to the dorm, your roommate will definitely ask: Why didn't you bring me food?

    Then we moved out of our reasoning: my phone is on silent, I didn't see the message you sent me, I'm sorry. If we all say this, then naturally the roommate will not say anything more, and if you do this kind of thing a few times, the roommate will not ask you to bring food again.

    2. Many students have the habit of eating in the dormitory, even if there is no class in the morning, they will habitually go out of the dormitory to buy food and then bring it back to the dormitory, which also gives roommates a lot of opportunities for you to bring food, and because it is said in person, so we are not easy to refuse, so we can use a more tactful way, for example: I will not be in the dormitory when I wait. My classmates asked me to go out to play, and we should eat in the cafeteria, or rather, you have to eat too, so let's go down and buy it together, and in short, we want to instill in my roommates the idea that I am not obligated to bring you food.

    3. Take the path of others and let others have no way out. Treat him the way your roommate treats you, your roommate often asks you to bring food, then we can also seize every opportunity to let your roommate bring you food, after all, there are many people in the cafeteria, everyone wants to be lazy, how many times you have helped your roommate bring food, in turn, let your roommate help you bring food, seize the opportunity, after all, there is an opportunity to be lazy to grasp it well. Over time, your roommates won't ask you to bring you food anymore.

    In college life, the most common chores are to help bring meals, and if you are by the way, it is normal to help your roommates bring meals, but there are many roommates who will let you bring meals during peak hours, and even designate meals.

    This will make it much more difficult to bring food, first of all, you need to queue up during the process of bringing food, and if the food that your roommate wants to eat is not in the same cafeteria, you even need to make several more trips to buy it.

    When I want to refuse to bring food, I usually say that I eat on the table and chair in the cafeteria and am almost finished; Or it means that you only accept to bring the same food as yourself, otherwise you don't have to talk

    In a day-to-day situation, helping a roommate bring a meal can enhance the relationship with the roommate, but in the case of the cafeteria is full of students, the difficulty and complexity of bringing food will be greatly increased.

    If you don't want to help your roommate bring food, you can eat directly in the cafeteria, and go directly to the library to read and study after eating, thus creating a situation where you don't want to go along and refuse to help bring food.

    When you have already bought food, you can also pretend that you can't see the message and quickly return to the dormitory, indicating that you have already walked to the dormitory building when you see the message.

    If the other party has no extra requirements and restrictions on bringing food, you can bring the same meal, so as to reduce the waiting time, and if the other party asks more, you can also directly say that it is too troublesome to refuse.

    When my roommate and I were in the dormitory, we would basically choose the person who would bring the meal by rolling the dice.

    If you don't want to go, you can use your mobile phone to throw dice, and the person with the lowest number of points will bring food, but everyone can't ask for food, and what to buy must be decided by the person who brings food, so that you can save time when buying food, and it is fairer.

    Although there are times when you are unlucky and you may have to bring food continuously, it is also full of fun.

    Helping with meals from college roommates is a daily part of college life, and it basically happens in every dormitory.
