“In the nicest way possible, me and my roommate were
not fit to live together. I was always downstairs, in the
living room or in someone else’s room. There was a lot
of tension in our room, so I didn’t really like being in
there with her. Things were just really bad and I hated my
college experience because of it, so I filed with Res Life
for a new roommate. I eventually got word that I would be
moving out of my dorm. I sent in a group chat asking for
some people to come help me move, and someone in the
group chat happened to live in the same dorm building
as me. She was like, “Hey, I don’t have a roommate. You
can move in with me!”. She took me in without knowing
anything about me. Now, everything is absolutely
wonderful.”
