she doesn’t think i’ll get along with them. probably right, a friend I could room with I think though. I cohabitated with people before, in college and then a year after when I moved back.
but it’s a little different now. I prefer being alone, except at nights. I have the forum and baseball season and gardening to occupy myself so I don’t get lonely. and mom and dad are right across the street.
anyways, I would think they would want me to get a roommate so they would be getting more rental income but they’re not pushing it on me, so i’ll live by myself in my little bachelor pad for now.
@LilyoftheValley my parents are great. a little conservative but they always
express their love for me and help me out all the time
@Moonwalker yeah maybe it’s just the paranoia but I think it’s not worth the risk, too many messy situations. maybe someday i’ll find someone, it would be relatively affordable like $400/mo furnished, but they would basically have to either work at the casino or commute to the city.
@see121 yeah I entertained the thought of getting a cat. but decided I didn’t want to risk having one spray and im not thrilled to clean the litter box and I wouldn’t be able to take trips unless I found someone to watch it.
It sounds like a sweet setup you’ve got. Help just a short ways away and your own personal space to play up in. I wouldn’t see the need if you don’t need to. If your not in a relationship then sharing with others can come unstuck sometimes as personal habits can get in the road of a decent share house. You’d be surprised by the things that can annoy you.
I’d say your in a good situation and if you need company do some volunteering or join a club or something!
I had roommates for a decade in the past which were my high school buddies. You eventually find things you resent about them and yourself. I’ve been on my own for two plus years and l can’t imagine sharing a place again. I would if I had to but now that I got a taste of independence I just love it.
