5 Annoying Roommate Habits!

My dad had a transferable job; he was never confined to one particular geo location. So for almost 8 years I lived with different roommates. ‘Paying Guest’ accommodations are good if you have the right roommate but God help if she/he is a snob or a carefree person. The ultimatum would be he/she enjoys her stay; on the contrary it would be ‘you’ who would face all the heat.
5. Bills – Paying rent/electricity/grocery/miscellaneous is a monthly expense. Financial security is an important requirement when you search for a roommate. Does he/she have a job or is he/she financial sound? (Parents helping). If not checked, you would end paying every month for both your roommate and yourself.
4. Privacy - Everyone needs privacy, you would never want your roommate to barge into your space and eve’s drop at the conversation with your girlfriend/boyfriend. “Keep your space” should be the thumb rule.
3. Party Animal – A worst roommate habit. All night party with his/her friends at your place can affect your life. If would be difficult to attend college the next day. I always have a headache if I don’t sleep. So no party animals and no headaches J
2. Bathroom Etiquettes - “Keep your toilet clean as if God would be using is after you” this is what my parents have taught me but after a day’s hard work, you would never want to hit to a dirty toilet – soap froth all over, towels/linen stuffed in the shelf, shampoo bottles turned over, door mate still wet etc. Phew! It’s a disaster, most disgusting habit of a roommate – You sure need to check on this please J
1. Kitchen –“Cleanliness is a mantra for good health” - Sink full of crockery /utensils makes me puck. Your roommate should be willing to clean the kitchen when he/she uses it. Dirty stink from an unclean kitchen will be annoying.
We have our own habits but it’s very important to have the right roommate. It makes life much easier. Did you anytime have the experience of staying with an annoying roommate?
