5 Things To NOT Do When Meeting Your Roommate For The First Time

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.

1. Tell you whole life story immediately.

Get to know your roommate before you start to tell all of your personal information. Let them find out more about you organically.

2. Hold back.

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.

3. Get sloppy drunk the first night.

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.

4. Agree to share anything.

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.

5. Don’t let them make you feel like your room isn’t both of yours.

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.
