I am so glad I live alone now. I do live in a dormitory style place, but my room has everything I need except a kitchen and the laundry so contact with the other people living here is minimal. I had some horrific room-mates in Uni who seemed to think that it was okay to come in at all hours of the night drunk and play loud music then fall asleep and leave me to creep upstairs to shut it off. The bastards knew I had a job on top of my studies - unlike any of them. Thankfully they moved out and were replaced by a good, casual friend of mine and a quiet bloke plus a girl who spent all her time at her boyfriend's house.

I have a Korean rommate who only make Zealot in Starcraft lol :D.
After reading some terrible story about rommate in this thread I find myself very lucky. I get along very well with my rommate. He is cool, even let me smoke in the bathroom(ofc I dont smoke in our room since he doesnt smoke).
We help out each other alot, it was like when I have to pick up something from the post office, but if I dont have time, he can do it for me very happily, and ofc I do help him out with small things like that.
I have a PS3 and we are both gaming nerds.
Like all Korean, if you gain their respect they will be very very polite. He is very polite to me o any friends i brought back.
One tiny problem thought, he couldnt get a gf, damn, I encourage him alot to just go out and grab some girl, it's not like you will marry them after all. But he is like very very strick about love. He said that he wants to find someone he loves.
My next goal is to get my rommate to have a GF, haha.
Good luck to people who stucks with a terrible rommate. Maybe you just need to speak it out and let your rommate know what habbit of them you dont like.

PS: Before my current rommate, I had another Korean rommate for a year, and that was terrible, in the end me and my former rommate got in a fight which i punched him the face several times and he managed to kick me pretty bad on my stomach.

Too bad Im stuck in a urban environment, my house is a 1 hour subway ride away from uni.

edit: Would like to experience it but most likely will never during college years. :/ Might be a good thing.

I've had a similar experience for the past few months. I have been living with this dickof a roommate. He's one of those people you can just... instantly despise. Just the other day while I was out, he ate my fucking tofu- and when I asked him about it he just made one of the dumb ass jokes, "I was hungry, and it was just begging to be ate" (cause there were eight pieces- haha :|).

How socially incompetent can you get? Like this guy just spends all day inside on his computer, looking up dumb stuff like horror stories and writing articles for a bad website. He just engages me in the most awkward conversations whenever we are around. I mean, like why even bother to try to understand where he is coming from, or to help him out- he is just that much of a loser. Another thing, he has awful taste in music, and he watches waaay to much anime. I just wish he would be more like me and get out of the dorm and do something useful once in a while. Like this is College, why doesn't he get out and hook up with some women or something like every other "normal" student- no he is just anti-social and never leaves his room.

Ughh, it just angers me so much. I mean, isn't there anyone that will talk to him, or engage him in some sort of activity? I mean I'm a nice guy, but I'm too busy/lazy to do it.


Sorry, just had to get that rant off of my chest- and yes the snoring does suck, I mean why the hell isn't everyone as perfect as I am?


unless you are trolling,
you and OP (alhtough he has a stronger case) are entirely too unaccepting of other people
if he's not doing anything that actually affects you, just let him be
and if you are a half decent person as you seem to claim, you shoudl make an effort to open arms to a person who might be craving for social acceptance and friendship
damn you people are full of yourself


I was thinking almost the exact same thing. If someone is clearly struggling to be social, and you're as awesome as you claim to be, try to help him out. It's funny that either one of these guys thinks they're nice, and then they're completely unwilling to help out a guy in need. Having been that socially awkward guy for most of my life until recently, I WISH someone would have told me when I was younger what a loser I was.
I'm never gonna know you now \ But I'm gonna love you anyhow.

Freshman Year : Hated my Roommate.
Sophomore Year : My roommate was pretty much my best friend.

Transferred schools

Junior Year : Neutral towards my new roommate, but leaning towards friendly. (Nothing wrong with him, we just realized early on that we didn't have enough in common to become really good friends I guess)
Junior Year part 2 (transfer student credit stuff, I will be 5 year student.) : Currently living in a single room.
Senior Year : Will be in an apartment with my best friend of about 8 years.

I thought that they just muffle sound, not block it out completely. So stuff like snoring and weird coughing habits or whatever should be easier to deal with.

I hate the sound of alarms so much that I have a weird system.

I set my phone alarm (on vibrate) under my pillow, and then my actual alarm clock for 2 minutes after just in case my phone doesn't wake me up. Idk, that is just the way I've done it since I started college. And ghostwriter is correct, your alarm will still wake you up if it is close enough to you, that or your snoring roommate will wake you up by kicking you because your alarm keeps going off.

granted i snore, but I never understood how some people are bothered so much by snoring or lights when they are trying to sleep. Can't you just shut down and drown everything out? I mean I've passed out on couches at parties near blaring speakers etc.


Thats how it is for me, I'm not a particularly deep sleeper, but any ambient noise doesn't really bother me, I can get to sleep in silence, with music, at a party, doesn't really matter...as long as its consistent. If the noise were to constanty start and stop, that would most likely be a problem.

The only trouble I've had with roommates was when they refuse to stop making noise when I need to sleep. I've gotten very angry at different roommates on some occasions because of this. One time my current roommate was on Skype with his friend while playing Fiesta and he just right-out said "nope I can't" when I told him to get off. I seriously wanted to assault him right then and there.

Overall though he's a pretty cool guy so I'm glad I didn't. We're good friends now.

One annoying thing is that these people who make noise when you're trying to sleep... also don't give a shit if you make noise. So you can't pay them back in kind.

some noise is fine as long as it's constant or not making me want to kill whatever is making. But god damn those snorers that sound like they're constantly starting up a chainsaw, it's impossible to drown some of that out
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
