Roommates typically go one of two ways: either you're "best friends for life" and putting them down as a bridesmaid in your wedding, or you're constantly arguing over who left the dishes out in the sink for three days.
But, in some circumstances, you're "best friends for life" until you realize that living with them is a complete pain in the ass. You find yourself thinking, "Wow, who knew they could be like this?" And then, you begin the process to move out just a few days later.
I have had a very unique experience when it comes to roommates, in a good and bad way. Out of all the crazy experiences my friends, family and I have had, I decided to compile a list of things that would cause you to lose a roommate in 10 days.
Day 1. When they are ready to go to sleep, invite 12 people over to party in your room!
Cause, you know, everyone is down for a dorm room crammed with 12 people when they are trying to sleep
Day 2. Wear a Harry Potter cape and insist your name is "Katniss" from the Hunger Games.
They could be the Ron to your Harry!
Day 3. Use their pan to fry something, but don't worry about washing it, just let it sit on the stove for a few days.
I mean they'll clean it in a few days...it is their pan after all!
Day 4. When they have to wake up at five to study for an exam, make sure to watch a movie on full volume...without headphones...make sure there is commentary.
Make sure to laugh REALLY hard when the funny part comes on!
Day 5. While they are trying to sleep, make yourself dinner, eat it in bed. But, you've got to make sure to scrape your fork against the plate.
You just have to make sure that every last bite is gone!
Day 6. Respond to everything--absolutely everything--sarcastically.
You're being sarcastic, so it's not fair if they get their feelings hurt, right?
Day 7. Cry when they confront you.
They can't be mad at you when you're crying! That's just heartless!
Day 8. No matter what they are telling you, turn it all around to be about you.
Because everything has to be about you, other than that, it's ridiculous.
Day 9. Always have a problem with something they are doing, but NEVER talk to them about it.
Because "there are already too many problems"
Day 10. After they've cleaned the room--completely spotless--make it as dirty as you possibly can!
Honestly, you're doing them a favor! Especially since they like cleaning so much!
As you can see, all of us have endured some pretty crazy situations with our roommates. Not everyone is lucky enough to get a best friend the first time around; it may take two or three tries to figure out the right fit!
Just like Andie proved with Ben, it is very possible to run someone out in 10 days! Trust me, if you do all 10 of these things, they will be packed and running for the hills faster than you could say, "Yucky, yucky pizza! Yummy, yummy cucumber sandwich!"
