    Soooo..

    What's it like sharing a room with a friend, say college and work wise?
    Asked a few people that said it was grand, others telling me it's awful and that the slightest annoying thing the other person does will begin to grate on you.
    I'm a fairly laid back person, I've lived in very cramped box room/****ty flats where we were nearly always in eachothers company but never shared a room.

    All opinions appreciated ! :)

    Will there be pillow fights in your underwear? If so, go for it.


    I'm presuming/hoping you're female.

    I shared last year with a college mate. It was fine though, we ended up turning into a bit of a couple, going to bed at the same time quite often etc. It depends on the person though, if they are inconsiderate/annoying or you don't know them, I'd be a bit wary.

    No matter how laid back you are eventually every little thing they do will drive you insane.

    Yeah IM female and SHE'S female. So pillowfights galore.

    Yeah bit of a mixed reply from you all.
    Also I have to be up before 6am for work.. so could be tricky also with boyfriends and the likes..

    Maybe I just answered my own question.. but the rent is so cheap! :confused:
