Dear soon-to-be roommate,
Can I start by saying how amazing you are already? Just the little time we have spoken over online messages make me love you. I can already tell that you will be my forever roommate, my partner in crime and my best friend. We will have lots of late nights, early mornings and all-days together, and for that, I want to go ahead and apologize.
I am sorry for keeping you up all night talking about my amazing day. Some days are just so good that you can't stop talking about it. Maybe that boy I really like finally asked me out, or maybe I got that job that I have been dreaming of. Since you are going to be "my person," I am going to want to tell you about my favorite days, but I promise, I will listen to your amazing days too.
I am sorry for keeping you up all night talking about my bad days. Even though amazing days are going to be so much more fun to talk about, we are both going to have bad days. Those are the nights we are going to want a whole bottle of wine and we will risk the massive hangover the next day because the day before was just that bad. Although that bottle of red wine won't cure the crappy day, it will definitely ease the pain for at least a few hours. Then the next day, we will go out and buy another bottle for when you have a bad day.
I am sorry that I won't always make my bed. Lets be honest for a moment, I will think about it, every morning, but It won't actually happen. We are busy people. We have work or class early that morning, or maybe we were just up really late the night before, whatever the excuse for the day is, it won't happen. But I promise, I won't be mad at you when your bed isn't made.
I am sorry for taking your top because I don't have any clean laundry. Now, I will ask to borrow your top, that I will do. So I guess I am sorry for asking to borrow your top at least twice a month. Sometimes I just don't want to do laundry. Well, most days I do not want to do laundry. Then one day, I will wake up with a full laundry hamper and an empty closet and that will be the day you get the text message, "can I borrow your top...again."
I am sorry for eating the last of the ice-cream. Some days are going to be bad days and you won't be there to open the wine with me. Therefore, I will have to result to my other friend, ice-cream. So when you come home from an amazing night out with that super hot guy, and you see an empty ice-cream container by my bedside, don't worry, I made it through the night. And tomorrow we will talk all about your awesome night, I promise.
I am sorry for being an emotional person. Sometimes, I cry, and I don't know why. Sometimes, I am over exuberant, and I don't know why either. My suggestion to you, just go with it. Not even a licensed professional could figure me out, so don't even try to do it within one night. I have no doubt you will learn to "get me," and once you do, you will be able to know what I need without even asking. That will be the day you will officially become, "my person," and I can not wait until we make it to that step.
I am sorry for not being good at being a "girl." I won't take long in the mornings to get ready, I won't do my hair and make-up the majority of the time and I will probably complain about the girls who do. I am not a fan of public displays of affection, and I will gawk at the couples who decide to participate in it. I am not cute when I eat. I don't care if things drop on me or if I eat a whole pizza in one sitting. Thankfully, I am pretty sure you love pizza just as much as me.
I am sorry that you got me as a roommate, but I am not sorry I got you. I promise, I have some good qualities. I will always get two tubs of ice-cream (so we can each have our own) and I will support your bad days just as much as your good days. I will always cancel plans with anyone, if you need me more. I will be your "excuse" if you want out of a bad date, or I will write you a "sick note" if you don't feel like going to work. So thanks for giving me a chance as your soon-to-be roomie and I am sorry.
Sincerely,
Your soon-to-be forever roommate, your partner in crime and your best friend.
