My roomie now is a guy, and he and I get along really well. Prior to him, I had had several female roomies and they all sucked.

It really depends if you are both adults and can work things out when there are problems.

I've had both girl and guy roomates. I find that guys are A LOT easier to live with...however the ones I have had have always been really messy.

Girls get offended at the littlest things though.

It pretty much depends on how chill the person is.

I live with my friend from high school...and while most of the time things are ok, we still get on each other's nerves. Helps that she's at her bf's most of the time

Who are you talking too, Jenny?

I've had female roommates ever since I arrived in the US. We've been together since our first year at Stanford. We totally love each other, best friends and all that. I think when you have more than one, it's important not to get involved in arguments between the others. But you're only going to have one so that advice wouldn't really apply.

Wash dishes often, even if it seems like you're doing more than your fair share, don't leave crap all over and I bet things will be wonderful.

it'll be a blast....if she's cool. if not, it'll be the worst time of your life.

I lived w/ one of my best friends for a year during college, and seriously, that was one of the best times of my college career. Both of our personalities i think meshed really good....and we got along together great. she was thinking about coming to live down here w/ me....but she got a decent job back up north and wants to stick with [i was kinda disappointed, but oh well].

so yeah, if you can really get along, it seriously will be a blast.

The thread starter.

I think it's better if she is single, too (aside from obvious reasons). The drama that accompanies some couples is a pain in the ass to live with. Especially, if the boyfriend spends most of the time at your apartment. It's never fun having an extra, unofficial roomate.

And, for Jenny:

where are you moving to in fla and how did you find the roommate?

Spice things up by walking from the shower to the bedroom naked, pooping with the door open, wax your underarms, buy her a big dog, watch gay porn with her, have a party & lock her out of the house, become a drunk, invite grandma to stay for a few months, wash your feet in the kitchen sink, invite her into your room for a 10 Oclock meeting and then tell her off for being late, turn the television over to the cartoon network everytime she wants to watch a soap opera, staple sardine to the underside of her bed frame, phone her up to tell her that you are wearing her panties by mistake, when you are introduced to her boyfriend say "a bit of competition is healthy", if she accidently farts in your company pretend to enjoy the aroma and start snorting the air
