Meeting your roommate for the very first time is one of the most exciting things you will ever experience. It’s also one of the most nerve-wracking moments of your life. However, one wrong move can change the course of the entire experience for both of you. Here are some tips on how to prevent any embarrassing moments during your initial meeting.
Get to know your roommate before you start to tell all of your personal information. Let them find out more about you organically.
Tell him/her exactly how you feel and what you will and won’t be okay with. That way, no one is upset in the long run.
You don’t want your roommate to think you’re gross and don’t know how to handle yourself. Wait for a while to drink, once you know that your roommate will be able to help you if you get out of control.
What’s yours is yours and eventually, if you start to not get along, you don’t want them to continue to use your things when you don’t even want to be dealing with them.
Your room is your room too. Don’t let your roommate bully you into thinking you can’t be in it when you want to or can’t do what you want to do in it.
