So i moved in with 2 women. Any advice, yes this is for real.

* The toilet paper shall be installed so as to come over the top, not down the wall. If there aren't at least 5 good uses left on the roll, put an extra roll within reach (on top of the tank will do) before someone else needs it.

Coming down the wall facilitates single handed TP removal, as you can more easily stop the roll from spinning and pull off the desired amount with a single hand. Far superior for those of us who are either lazy, or "easily distracted".

do you have your own shower, or is it a communal shower? thats one of the bad parts about living with females, long hair clogs drains...

aside from that and the emotionally temperamental thing, girls tend to make better room/housemates.

Who needs to cook for a vegetarian? Just go pull some weeds from the side of the house.

a vegan tried to cook eggs for me a month or so ago.

/didnt end well

"easily distracted"

didnt need to hear that.

Hey, there were 2 choices there, I just didn't want someone to feel excluded when they didn't fall into the lazy category.

1) Set boundries early on.
2) Do not get involved with either of them no mater how late at night it is, how drunk you/they are and especially if they say "no strings attached". Unless you have already given notice that you are moving out. it's 15 minutes of bliss that will lead to months of misery.

Other than that I really liked my previous female roomates.

For the most part the depressive one and i have a similar view of the high strung roomate.

BAD news!

Do not share concerns about one roommate with another. At the first disagreement, or simply as idle gossip: "Well, do you know what was said about you... "

oh man..you're right.

For the most part we dont talk S*** about each other in hushed tones, AFAIK.
As the days went on, it became more about personality issues than house-mate-courtesy issues. I think at this point we are all learning about each other's quirks.

High strung lady is learning to be more relaxed and being able to let trivial matters "go". I think she is learning that her control over many aspects of life is illusionary and she is willing more and more to compromise, because frankly, the world doesen't revolve around her and the compliance of others to her need is not a given or automatic.

The depressive is learning to empower herself more, mainly because she uses my model of not taking crap from the high strung roommate.

and im developing a much more acute communication skills and learning to be more aware of peoples feelings and all that crap.
