11 Realities of Having a Roommate with a Boyfriend

Having a roommate is one of the best parts of the college experience. Odds are, you have never had to live in such a confined space with another person your age before. This arrangement definitely takes some getting used to, but it can be even more eventful when your roommate has a long-term boyfriend. Take my word for it, you will be seeing a lot of him. And eventually, there are just certain things you learn to be true.

1. You start to accept the fact you now have a third roommate

I mean, he is there all the time anyways. Maybe you should start charging him rent?

2. Being a "third wheel" doesn't phase you

At this point, you three are essentially a full on tricycle.

3. Getting sexiled sucks

You have become very acquainted with the spot beside your door. It's where you sit and pass the time as you wait for your room to become unlocked.

4. You don't care when your roomie's S.O. sees you in shambles

Whether it be fresh out of the shower, or first thing when you wake up, this boy has seen it all. Might as well keep it going, right?

5. You learn that those flowers left at your door are never for you

Yet you still get your hopes up!

6. When you're feeling sad you now have two people to cuddle with

Having a bad day? This will definitely cheer you up.

7. You become just as invested in the relationship as they are

You would have no idea what to do if they broke up. Seriously.

8. There are now two people to counsel you on your love life

Whenever you walk in and need to rant about a guy, you know you can count on getting two unique perspectives.

9. You start to forge a great connection with HIS roommate

He just really gets it.

10. Unwanted things start to accumulate in your room

Hmmm... this pair of boxers sure isn't yours.

11. You realize you need to get a boyfriend. Now.

Nothing will make you realize this like seeing a happy couple together 24/7

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
