“I confronted him about it, and he denied everything.”
Living with a roommate can be an amazing (or horrible) experience.
a lot of people had their own stories to share.
Here’s what they had to say below:
1.
“She wasnt the worst, but she had some pretty gross habits.
The rest of the semester we had dried wax glue and pube hair on the floor.
She refused to clean it.”
“I had a roommate who got diagnosed with colon cancer part way through the year.
It was a roller coaster ofemotionsas his treatment progressed throughout the school year.
The next year, he was around campus again.
Turns out he made it all up.
Never had cancer.”

I confronted him about it, and he denied everything; maybe he didn’t even remember."
“At University, I lived with two women from out of town.
One of them had a seriously powerful Yamaha amplifier mated to a pair of 350W tallboy active cabinet speakers.
It was a pricy setup.
Reassembled, put everything back as it was, and left.
I had peace and quiet for the rest of the term.
Unsurprisingly, both she and the roommate she came with both failed the first term and left.”

We shared a five-bedroom apartment, and everyone had their own room.
Our unit developed a mouse problem, and my roommates noticed a bunch of their dishes went missing.
Turns out my roommate had a hoarding problem and was the source of our mouse infestation.
“I had a roommate who was an absolute slob.
He let it sit for a couple of months and refused to fix it.
Finally, we called our landlord, and he pulled out coffee filters.
The dude was wiping his ass with coffee filters and flushing them, or at least trying to.
It was the worst-smelling bathroom ever.”

It was me, two other women, and a guy.
The guy was a little odd.
You see, me and Sarah shared a bathroom and Carol and Daniel shared the other.
We each provided our personal toiletries and then took turns purchasing toilet paper.
Daniel never provided any for his bathroom.
Carol asked that he do so because that was the agreement.
He waffled and didn’t."
“Oh my god.
David was such a wild person while being so horrific and annoying but doubly adorable and kind of laughable.
Like, he was so naive and unintelligent that he reminded me of a puppy.”
David was a drummer.
He was not a rock drummer or folk drummer.
A marching line drummer.
Weeks later, David texts me, saying he wants me to meet someone.
They were going to ‘throw a party’ in our apartment.
David was getting kicked out?
Or not paying rent?
I imagine being kicked out for not paying rent.
I did none of those things.
The guy who came to see the apartment was Chris, who ended up moving in.
He was super sweet, and I adored him.
I hope he is okay, and I wish I never lost contact.
Fuck you, David."

We asked her to stop eating our groceries = she brought the baby to the dorm for finals week.
I didnt sleep and did terribly on my exams and two different job interviews."
“I had a roommate who played ‘Happy’ byPharrellon repeat the year it came out.
I’m talking back-to-back on a loop.
He just would not stop, even with my pleading.
It didn’t stop until every other roommate got fed up enough as well.”

I found the house to rent, signed the lease, and had him added after the fact.
Regretted that one very quickly for multiple reasons:"
12.
He physically assaulted me."
