Roommates are tricky. Some are horror stories while others, like myself, get blessed. If you got as lucky as I did, chances are that at least some of these reasons apply to your relationship.
- She’ll go on 11 PM ice cream runs with you.
- She sits and listens to all your sob stories.
- She puts up with you during mother nature’s visits—even when syncing makes being in the same vicinity hell.
- She listens to your Taylor Swift playlist even when she hates it.
- But then she introduces you to “real music” aka her jams (which really aren’t so bad).
- She’ll go to the dining hall with you for the sole purpose that you’re hungry.
- She compliments you on your shit days.
- Anybody you hate, she hates too.
- And boys, you don’t wanna f*** with her girl.
- There is always a code of honesty in all situations.
- She’s always trying to push you to be your best.
- But she showers you with love & support when you’re at your worst.
- She’s the first person you call when you see a puppy or cute boy, whichever suits your fancy.
- Silence between you two is never awkward.
- She goes out with you even when every part of her wants to just lay in bed.
- You sit and watch documentaries because you don’t mind being lame together.
- And then one of you will make the other one watch a rom-com because it’s a necessity.
- She is your go-to on a day when your tears could supply a fountain.
- Your family loves her, almost more than they love you.
- She quotes Friends with you like its her job.
- If you could go back in time and choose again, you would still choose each other. Thats how you know it’s real.
