roommate drama
Housemate interpersonal strife
Roommate drama is the interpersonal conflict, tension, and emotional upheaval that arises from sharing living space.
It encompasses everything from passive-aggressive notes about dirty dishes to full-blown arguments over guests, noise, or unpaid bills.
The phrase acknowledges that cohabitation breeds friction: I can't deal with any more roommate drama—I'm getting my own place.
