Curious, has anyone here lived in a 2BR apartment with one female roommate about the same age? I've lived with women before but never one guy and one woman living together. Good idea or bad idea?

Yeah, I did once with a female cousin just to give here a place to live.

Didn't work out too well in the long run, living with a woman that isn't you're wife is a real PITA.

Was my 2 bedroom house, but still.

I was helping her out after a divorce, but still is similar.

It's doable I guess but all situations are different.

Depends a lot of the time on your definition of a room mate.

Ive had two female roommates. One was a bit weird since first she was gone for work for 6 months then i was gone for 6 months for work so we were only in the house together for like 4 months total. Worked fine for us but was a bit weird. im a morning person and go to bed early and she is a night person and sleeps in. So we both had plenty of time to be away from the other. The other one didnt work out more just cause she was a shitty roommate than it being female. Didnt do her own dishes (mind you all the dishes are mine to begin with). Didnt lean her bathroom once in a year. Just had no respect for anything pretty much.

I see having a female roommate as no different than a guy. Its all about what type of person they are

I did and it was all sex all the time. It was worse when her girlfriends came over because all they would do is pillow fight in the nude and tickle each others privates with anything they could get their hands on.

Wore me out. Almost every guy I knew that had female roommates had exactly the same experience.

NOPE. Girls don't like me. I would have treated them good. Instead they show their affection to these brutes!

Why wouldn't it work?

Are you incapable of being polite to a woman who isn't having sex with you?

Do you feel that "men's work" or "women's work" takes precedence over the equitable distribution of chores?

Do you become violent if people ask you to open jars?

Will your self-esteem be permanently ruined if somebody tells you those shoes don't match that tie?

Will your parents give you endless grief if you live with a MotOS?

Are you afraid of being called "gay" by people who watched too much Will 'n Grace and not enough Friends?

Are you dead-set on paying for haircuts?

Will your dick fall off if you give somebody a back rub and it's not foreplay?

Do you refuse to live with people who you cannot playfully punch in the shoulder at any time?

Do you prefer snakes to cats?

...etc.

I live with people. Sometimes, they are female people. It's never been so miserable I couldn't ride out the lease. Likewise, some people just shouldn't have roommates, period.

I had several opportunities to room with hot college girls back in college. I, instead, lived with a guy who was a good friend and good roommate. I don't regret it because living with hot girls would have distracted me and made me jealous if I wasn't having sex with them.

You get sick of them, just like any other roommate. Just because they have tits doesn't mean you'll like cleaning up after them all the time, which works both ways too. And there is the boyfriend/girlfriend is always there thing eating and drinking all your shit...

I did it twice in my early twenties. Both times we ended up shagging and then dating and then breaking up and then becoming an unlivable situation that one of has had to move out and the other had to find a replacement flatmate. So both times edned poorly at the time and it sucked but it was fun for a while and managed to make up with both and still friends to this day.

IMO it's the same as living with a guy except you might possibly end up having sex and then requireing another flatmate :)

if there is any mutual sexual attraction whatsoever it will result in sex and eventually drama

If you room with a ugly girl or you are an ugly guy, women can be fun friends just like guys.

You sound socially awkward. Just live alone if you can't treat others like human beings.

Truer words were never spoken ... unfortunately both times I had female room-mates were the former and in no way was the drama worth it.

I've never heard of these situations not ending like this...unless one of the roommates was gay.

One of my best fiends is on his third go around with this scenario and is wondering why it keeps happening.o_O

I lived with a friend of mine and her daughter for a couple of years. she rented a room in the same house as I was living in. Owner of the house sold it so we rented an apartment closer to my work I helped her get a job at the same place.

I had known her for while and there was a mutual non attraction agenda so that helped. How long we had known each other helped too. I did the cooking and grocery shopping (I'm a better cook) She did the cleaning. She started dating someone from work they fell in love and moved in together so we dissolved the living situation. No bad feelings.

I would say on the positive side living with a girl had a positive reaction to my sex life. Girls tended to be a lot more willing to come over when they found out my roommate was a girl, plus she made a great wing women. We never slept together but she could bullshit with the best of 'em.

I am living with one at the moment. She is not organised at all and doesn't clean after herself!!! Goodness... Thank god we have our own bathrooms. Disgusting! She keeps the seks outside the apartment though, I think. I hope <.<

mostly, bad idea.

you can cope with it, but you are cutting yourself off from a boatload of fun which you'd have if you got a flat with another dude, wether its beer nights, walking around in underwear, or pimping the house for bringing chicks back.

dont do it.
