I need some advice. So about a year ago I moved down here to Virginia from Pennsylvania because of a good job I was offered. It worked out great because my best friend from college lives here and has his own house, so I just pay him rent every month. But a few months ago he took a new job and is going to be deployed overseas for up to 18 months at a time. He says I can continue to live here as long as I get two roommates. Either that, or I move out on my own.
I don't know what to do! The only friends I've made down here are through my best friend and I have a feeling once he goes I'll barely ever see them. I was thinking if I got some roommates I could make friends with them, and make friends with their friends. Of course this could completely backfire and I could get stuck with two people I can't stand and just be stuck up in my room all day and night. I can always just find a place to live on craigslist and go live by myself but I know what will happen...nothing. I'll just go through my daily routine like I always do and not do anything fun or meet new people. I'll just get up, go to work, come home, go on the internet/tv, then go to bed. I can't do that anymore!!! I need to live!
Looks like I pretty much answered my own question; guess I'm getting some roommates. I'm a 27 y/o single guy. Should I look for female or male roommates? I live close to major university so I bet I could get some young college girls living here which could be pretty awesome or pretty anxiety inducing! So what do you guys think? Do you think getting roomies is a good idea?
