10 Things That Happen When Your Roommate Becomes Your Best Friend

The best (or worst) thing about college is getting to live with a roommate. Depending on who you end up with, this experience can be good or bad. This person sees you at your worst, when it's 3 am and you have a paper due at 8 or at your best, when that cute guy from chemistry finally texts you. If you're lucky, you get someone great that eventually becomes your best friend and these things happen:

1. Every night becomes a therapy session.

Because who else is going to listen to all of your problems and not judge? She'll always tell you like it is. You both give great advice.


2. You have one giant closet instead of two small ones.

You trust each other enough to share everything. With both of your fashion skills combined, nothing can stop you. Her black dress + your red shoes = total world domination.


3. You memorize each others' schedule.

It's not planned. It just kind of happens. Oh it's 2:00 on a Wednesday? She's in math class.


4. You always have someone to go places with you.

"Hey, wanna go get dinner?" "Sure!" She'll always tag along on your adventures across campus or anywhere else you might need to go. She can make any boring task a fun one!


5. You understand each other completely.

It's like you have pizza telepathy. She knows what you're thinking before you even think it. "Wanna order pizza tonight?" "Duh."


6. You're always updated on each others' lives, even on long breaks apart.

If you can't tell her in person, a text is the next best thing. It's like she never left. She gets a daily update of your life, even if it's just telling her you saw a cute puppy that day.


7. You celebrate together and cry together.

She's the very first person you call when something big happens. She's there to dance around the room with you after you ace your science exam and cry with you when you're stressed. Sometimes both. You both care about the small things and that's what makes your friendship so great.


8. You balance each other out.

She's the crazy one with a sunshiny personality and you're the cool, calm, and collected one that keeps you both put together. It works perfectly. Together, you're the dream team.


9. You watch the same shows on Netflix.

Usually together. You might even share an account. You obviously can't watch the next episode without her. It's against all laws of having a roommate.


10. You wouldn't trade each other for the world.

She quickly became your best friend and you couldn't imagine living with anyone else.


Hopefully, you'll be able to find a roommate this great.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here.
