Whether you have known each other your entire lives or met each other freshman year, you know you're stuck with each other. You took the plunge and signed the lease and now your best friend is also your roommate and sometimes that means you have to steal their toothpaste and overlook it when they forget to refill the ice tray. It is a special situation and should be treated as such. When your roommate is your best pal you get away with a lot more than you would if you lived with strangers. It might be tough to adapt to a new, adult lifestyle (complete with responsibilities and stuff) but at least you know that they can't leave your side!
Here are 5 things you do when your best friend is your roommate:
1. EatingUntil You Wish You Were Dead
So. Much. Eating. We can't stop! When you live with your best friend you know that you always have someone to split the bill with - so why not get the large pizza? We bake cookies and take turns attempting to imitate Pinterest recipes. You also don't feel the need to not disgust the person across the room from you with your excessive snacking and sighs of satisfaction, because it will be them in the next half-hour

2. Crying Over Another Dead Fictional Character
You don't care about disgusting them and you certainly don't feel bad about making them make you feel better. Whether the tears are spilling because of school, money, family, or even just because of Grey's Anatomy, your best friend is always there to get ya through.

3. Fighting Over Really Important Issues.... Like Where To Eat Dinner
Whether you yell or send very passive aggressive texts, every pair of roommates fight. Fights occur less when you live with someone you like, but when they do happen the entire house remains silent for at least two hours.

4. Sharing Closets
Whether or not my roommate knows or finds out weeks later, we share closets. Or at least, I share hers. Why wouldn't I want to double the amount of things to try on and change my mind about?

5. Doing Nothing
We spend a very large portion of our days doing absolutely nothing. I guess watching TV can be considered productive if we make a sizable enough dent in our recordings on DVR? Sitting on the floor and listening to music and showing each other funny pictures on Twitter is considered studying pop culture...right?
