Friendship is unlikely to blossom in one university dorm room this semester after one of its occupants sent an aggressive list of demands to her roommates before even meeting them.

The message, sent by a UCLA freshman known only as Ashly, was shared by one of its two recipients on Twitter in a post which has now been seen by thousands.

One of Ashly's new roommates, 17-year-old Winnie Chen, an aspiring make-up artist from Los Angeles, took to the social media site after being left in total shock by the email which, she says, was sent because Ashly's earlier messages hadn't drawn a response for a couple of days.

This is the email Winnie claimed she received from her future roommate after she failed to respond to a previous message for two days

The stern email includes a list of demands which are mainly centered around the bed and closets that she wants to claim for herself when moving into the shared dormitory.

The tirade read: 'Okay, so I'm not sure why neither of you responded back to my emails, but I don't really care, just as long as you both know this and understand that I'm not gonna settle for anything less than what I'm gonna tell you that I'm gonna get once I arrive in the dorm [sic].'

'I'll take the top bunk of the bunk bed that has a bottom and top bunk. I DO NOT want the single bunk where it has a desk underneath the top bunk so don't try to leave me with that.

'I'm also taking one of the white closets. There should be two white closets and I'm taking one of them. I don't care for which one it is, just know I'm taking one of them.'

She goes on to demand the 'desk that's near to the window' before adding: 'I won't be in the mood for any arguing or other nonsense because one of you two decided to deliberately disregard this email.'

The student then warns her roommates not to 'try' her as she'll turn it into 'a bigger situation' if needed.

She continues: 'Sorry but not that sorry for the attitude. I don't like being ignored because that's just rude, but that's what you both decided to do so I decided to make it clear now on the kind of person I am and what I will and will not take.'

Winnie's other roommate Guistinna Tun, 18, then responded to the message on behalf of both of them, showing they were less than impressed

In her reply, the student admitted to being 'out of line' but said she was a 'ticking time bomb'

She finishes by reiterating her demands and concludes they are 'fair enough' because she had given up 'fighting' for the bottom bunk.

Winnie then shared an email response to the message sent by her fellow recipient, Guistinna Tun, 18, who is also from California.

She opens it by explaining that she hadn't been 'ignoring' her but was busy moving house which had left her with no time to check emails.

It continued: 'I would just like to say that me and Winnie are extremely easy going people. We're chill and more than willing to compromise with one another, including you, and make decisions based on fairness. And we appreciate that you are letting us know your preferences from the get go.'

But she then continues by listing the aspects of Ashly's email that the pair 'didn't appreciate', including her 'attitude and sense of entitlement'.

'Please, don't play the victim. It's petty,' she wrote, before going on to say of Ashly's 'attitude': 'GIIRRRL, WE HAVEN'T EVEN MET YET. But, at this rate, I don't think I wanna even meet you anymore. #SORRYBUTNOTTHATSORRY. [sic]'

Guistinna then concludes: 'Look, I'm not here to fight with you. I hate being a b***h, but I am not going to allow anyone to talk to me or Winnie like that. You said: "Don't try me", but you ended up trying me. So, here I am.

Guistinna took to Instagram to mock Ashly's ridiculous list of demands, while sharing a sassy selfie at the same time

'I'd understand if you would want to change your roommates after reading this email, because honestly, that is how me and Winnie felt after reading yours. But if you're willing to work this out and start over, then so are we. I'm all about being open minded and getting to know people. Just let me and Winnie know.'

The disgruntled student then replied, admitting she had 'stepped out of line' but warned them that she was a 'ticking timebomb' that sets off when 'certain things' don't happen.

She wrote: 'While I stepped out of line with my attitude, you throwing it right back along with other snarky unnecessary comments is just fighting fire with fire. I'm mature enough to put out the fire myself once I see it spreading, but other people aren't so I don't think that was necessarily the right way to handle the situation.

'However, like I said, the fact that you stuck up for you and Winnie seemed pretty cool to me - I like people who know how to speak up for themselves but most importantly, for others too. So yeah, I don't mind starting over considering the fact that I don't get along with people right off the bat because I'm not that much of a people person. So I'm not looking to find new roommates either.'

The student then goes on to admit that she's an 'over analyser' with 'anger issues' and adds: 'If that scares you then you can request another roommate.'

She insists she's working on her 'issues' and will continue to do so at university, before finishing her email by reiterating her original request followed by a 'lol'.
