My brother does the same thing with me. I'll sitting around the house doing something, often CLEARLY concentrating like playing a video game or reading a book, and he'll just go up to me and start asking me questions and talking to me about random things, like he has no concept that I don't exist primarily to listen to him. It's so fucking annoying. And I want to have a good relationship with my brother (well, I've kind of given up on that for a while, but hopefully eventually?) but that doesn't mean I want to drop whatever I'm doing and give him my undivided attention at the drop of a hat, all the time.

The worst part is, even when I try my best to be as NICE as I possibly can, he goes into Total Dickwad Mode when I say I don't want to talk to him, accuses me of being a jerk, says I NEVER have time for him, etc. I try pointing out that I clearly was doing something (like was reading a book with a clearly engrossed expression, or wearing my headphones ffs) and that gets blown off. And, of course, if he's on his computer or watching a football game and I just want to ask him a quick question, I get a short, annoyed "not now!" often accompanied by a dismissive hand gesture.

The good news is, I think (I hope?) that he's just being immature. He's 21 going on 12, and has been for a while (the going on 12 part I mean). So maybe your roommate is the same way and will grow out of it...perhaps not soon enough to help you, but in the long run it would definitely help her.
