Signs You And Your Roomie May Be TOO Close

Is there really such a thing?

Signs You And Your Roomie May Be TOO Close
Taylor Martinek

We've all heard the horror stories. The stories about the roommate from hell that wears your clothes and eats your food. The roommate that stays up too late and constantly has people in the room. But for every one of these roommates, there are good roommates. At the same time, how close is too close?

You dress each other

Her fashion sense is just so much better than yours.

You're not sure whose clothes are who's

So you didn't see your roommate before you left for class. Suddenly she shows up at lunch wearing your shirt. Do you care? No. You're wearing her sweatshirt.

All food is up for grabs

Anything you don't want her to have better be hidden well. If I see it, I eat it!

You have so many inside jokes.

Other friends usually stop listening when you two start using inside jokes in your conversation. I guess you just had to be there.

The only time you spend apart is in class

Hands down the longest hours of the day.

When they leave for the weekend and you realize you have no other friends

You may think you have other friends, until you are watching Netflix alone in your room waiting for your roommate to get home.

You are associated together

You constantly refer to you and your roommate as we, and so does everyone else.

If one goes, both go

No need to invite both of you, and invite to one is an invite for both.

There is no such thing as personal boundaries

You know all of her relationship, personal, and family issues and have helped her solve many problems. Your room is a safe zone where everything is tolerated and judgement is not allowed. Of course, you could never judge her, she knows all of your secrets too!

You couldn't imagine life with anyone else.

At the end of the day, she is your best friend, and what's better than living with your best friend?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
