For anyone who has had to live with someone, we all have stories about their actions that would frustrate you. Here is a list of things that you shouldn't do if you want your roommate to like you.
1. Be loud when they are trying to study or sleep.
It is hard to concentrate period, let alone if you are blasting music or screaming.
2. Have people over unexpectedly.
It is not just your room, you should respect your friend and ask permission before bringing people over.
3. Be messy.
You are not the only one living in the room. It is a shared space. Be considerate and clean up after yourself.
4. Use their stuff without asking.
More likely than not, they are willing to share with you. Just ask. Do not assume.
5. Poor hygiene.
Nothing is more disgusting than poor hygiene. Shower, clean up after yourself, use tissues, etc. Just because you are away from your nagging parents, doesn't mean you can be a pig.
6. Hog the TV.
If someone is watching something or playing video games, then don't demand them to put on something you want. You can suggest it, but don't give them no choice but to give in to your inconsiderate demand.
7. Alcohol
If you drink, don't be someone who is a pain to take care of. We are your roommates, not your baby sitters. If you cannot handle yourself. Don't drink.
