Roommates.

I'll be the first to admit that I've had some bad roommates in the past. ( It's not all pillowfights and shoe sharing... )

roommates, life

I would like to say as a Mexican I am hurt xD as a person with a brain and common sense I laugh at your first roomates lack of the aforementioned qualities. Because I am sure everyone wants a person that deals and steals in their room. And then to blame it on being Mexican yeah that's a good way to make us look better. I just don't get peoples way of thinking sometimes. Well congratulations on getting normal roomates for a change :D

LOL Right? She wasn't doing anyone any favors by accusing me of that. It's just ridiculous.

Woo hoo for great roommates! In first year we had an apartment of 6 girls and none of us knew each other beforehand. The one I actually shared a room with could be really frustrating and the other girls really disliked her but our living arrangements allowed for me to know her like the others didn't & we came to an understanding...so on the whole I got REALLY lucky.

This year I'm living with three of them again in a house off campus. Tomorrow we have a house meeting to renew our lease and I plan on coming clean about my own "lesbian tendencies" (hope you don't mind me stealing your term...I found it fitting) so I've got my fingers crossed they'll still want to live with me and be as cool about the whole thing as your roommies are! :)

Aw sweetheart! I'm so happy for you! I hope that you're soon at the point where coming out is something fun instead of scary. I mean, there are times when I get nervous about it but in general I enjoy peoples' reactions. And I want you to know that you don't owe anyone an explanation and if you don't want to announce your sexual preference you don't have to. It's no one's business but yours. You can gradually come out to people by simply talking about it when appropriate or by doing things like changing your facebook "interested in" if you have one. Then, if people want to talk openly about it, you can answer any question of theirs that you have. I believe that our realizations of our sexual preferences is not about coming out to others but about coming in to ourselves. So remember that. If you feel your roommates should know before they choose to live with you then that's you're choice. But they've been living with you and when they know about your sexuality you'll still be the same person you've always been. So make that choice for ( ... )
