Roommates

I can never imagine living in the same house with anyone but my sister. I will rather live alone which I am doing right now than to become roommates with s stranger. I don't even think that I will like to live with my friends. I'm a control freak so it will be really hard. I also live in a place where I call a "controlled mess". My place does not look like a dump but I can't say it is tidy either. It is messy but I know where everything is. I think you should tell your friend to either make things better with her roommates or to look for another place. A home is suppose to be a place where you can unwind so how can you do that when the energy in the house is so bad. Tell her that it is not worth it to live in a place which she consider a torture.

They need to discover what the issue really is because what changed as nothing to do with being roommates. I had a roommate who was very religious on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, the days he went to church services. On Friday and Saturday he gave 'sinner' a new definition. The behavior could be tolerated until he decided I needed to be converted to his religious beliefs. Once I spoke out about his hypocristy to his friends, we had little to say to each other. I would guess one of both of the friends has ratted out the other to friends. One or the other should move.

I have had a couple of different roommates and I have had both good and bad experiences. One of my roommates and I never had a good relationship. We didn't have much in common and we had different ideas about a lot of things. We never spent much time together and we never really became friends. One of my other roommates and I had a great relationship. We shared food or the other things that we had and in the evenings when we were both at home we were usually together.

Hi vjenkins, It is nice to know that you never had any problems with your room mates and you had 5 room mates . This proves that you have patience and respect for others. Not everyone has same thing for others and then there is but natural that an argument would occur and sometimes argument would become fights too. We got a saying in Hindi which means when ever there are two utensils together, there would be some noise. It means when two people would live together there would always be difference of opinion and liking and dislikes. But we have to rise above it and find a solution to that. As far as I am concerned no I have never shared a room with someone so I can not say that I would fight or not with my room mate. I hope I don’t.

i think there are nobody have any incidents with their roommates . i am so missing my roommates from i gratuated from colleague .that is very cherish .i think for this time understand each other is very important . you know ,actually ,some times,it could be a misunderstanding .and just sit down together,talk to each other . it will be much better . you know ,it is important to take good care of connection of colleagues in our life . dont make everything to be confused . just talking out .

I had comlpeted my education from outside my town and now also I am doing job away from my town .So I am leaving with different roommates for last four years.I have some problems with roommates but it is not that difficult to adjust with them.I had some problems with cleanliness only in the begining.But after some period we become best friends.Now even after changing the rooms we are in touch with each other.I think if we choose roommates from same field then it becomes easy to mange with them.

hi there. i don't really like having room mates because i don't like messy things, and i hate it when they touch my things and borrowing things without asking. i remember there was one time, i got home, and found my bed covers burnt, and that room mate was also there sitting on her bed next to mine, she didn't even say anything until i said, did you iron your clothes here on my bed? and she is like "yes" but did not even say sorry or anything besides "yes". i wanted to iron her face! lol. and there was also one who would always get my food from my own cabinet and she also did not say anything. i would just notice my eggs, bread, and canned goods are almost gone. last time i came home and she was cooking, and she is like "oh i borrowed one canned food, i will pay you later, i'll go to the grocery store later", but i did not respond. and some other room mates are fighting and yelling at each other, and i don't like that so i just tell them that if they wanna fight, at least wait for me to leave for school lol and that is okay for them to be loud as long as they don't disturb my sleep. hehe. there was only one room mate i liked, because she is fun, also neat and always asks me before getting my things. even up to now, i have already graduated from college and i don't rent a room anymore, we are still friends, and i feel no negative things about her.

I have never had any unhappiness to my roommates, or housemates, in my case. Well, not like never argue at all, but not until the point that I couldn't stand being near them. But I think it's so sad if someone hates their roomate / housemate. Home is like a place where we can be ourselves. Anything bad can happen outside, like office or school, because we still have a home where we can really be happy and be ourselves. I would probably move out if I hate my roomate / housemate. Or at least I would try to drive them out of the house. So what happens between the two of them? They just fight everyday? I'm surprised not even one of them expressed their feelings to move out. Hmm..

I lived with 3 other guys. Things are gone well for a couple of months but then starts problems with cleanliness of the apartment, with the complicity of an excessive fussiness of one of them. At the end they quarreled very hard so they lived ignoring themselves. Me and the other guy were trying to re-build the peace in the apartment, but uselessly. One day they had to go to live in a student residence and luckily they made peace.

Well.. living with people who have differents points of view is very difficut..It is what happens when two people disagree in every single thing..I particularly never could live with somebody really different of me. You have to work most of the day and all what you need is have your time to relax..what cannot happens if you have to heard to people fithing for stupid reasons..I never had this problem before and I hope I never have to.... good luck!
