I do. I like scented candles. They help relax me. I spend a good chunk of money to live here. I would like to be able to light my scented candle. I probably wouldn't care as much if not for the fact that she will light hers, no problem. Basically, what it boils down to is this is not my home. And I'm reminded of that fact in subtle ways like not being able to burn the scented candle I like or paint my room the color I wanted.  It's the principle more than the candle. If I was living here for free or for some really discounted rate then sure, I would just suck it up. But I'm paying more than half the rent for this place. I think I can burn the scented candle I want.
