best friends moving in with each other problem

[Grumpys93]

Dont move in with friends, you won't stay friends forever, maybe one of them will still be friends with you in the end. Move in with an acquaintance or by yourself.

My friend friend was living with me. I hated it. We fought a lot but at the end of the day it only brought us closer (no homo). I understand havin a friend so close to you that their considered more like a brother. As for Oliver duuuuude that's ur chance man! Dusty and his chick gona be smashing on the wide and ur gona be like ... Damn and dude just break the the rules to Oliver . Tell her no guys at the house if no ones home . ANNND , if u don't really care for Oliver just have her bring her friends around

I can honestly say living with your best buds is fun.
I never had a dull night with them!
Obviously your friend Olive has a bad taste in men will have ya'll pissed of at her .I was gonna suggest to lay down some ground rules but you really cant tell someone how who to date or who they can date.So it would be best if she didnt move in the house with the group.God forbid she brings home someone and your shit turns up missing.

Ya, don't do it. And if you're going to do it then put locks on your doors.
I lived with 5 other guys before, every weekend each person had their own friends over. It became party central every weekend, a place for people to drink before hitting the bars. Eventually we just put padlocks on every door as stuff started going missing.

Just ask yourself. What do you care more about, your car parts, or the roomie

I lived with a friend one time. He was actually my best friend at the time. Not anymore. Don't live with close friends, it destroys the relationship.

[illinois_erik]

doors and locks solve a lot of those problems. rooming with many people sucks anyway, you either gotta be an asshole or people just take.. well they were strangers with my situation, but setting house rules at the beginning helps so does everybody adhering to them (maybe like no bringing dates, lays whatever home) anyway once you can lock up stuff and have personal space youll feel better, and harbor frieght has DVR's camera systems for pretty cheap good luck

Agree with everyone else here, Friendships will turn sour.

Been there done that.

Though we had a rule for your situation (which came about because of a similar type of girl)
No randoms allowed in the house at all, Friends in your circle of friends were OK, But anyone outside of that didn't come in.

And partners could only stay a maximum of 2 nights per week.
If partners stayed 3 nights, they payed a weeks rent, Simple as that.

I've lived with plenty of my best friends for multiple years and it's always been a great time. Sure, there are a few moments here and there but overall I have never had any real issues with my friends while living with them. That said, everyone I've lived with has been pretty reasonable in the things they do in and outside of the place we lived.

If you don't think she's good material for a roommate just tell her. If you have concrete examples then just lay that out. If she is truly a friend she will know of these issues and if she is unable to see them as potential problems for others then she isn't worth living with in the first place.

Other than the appeal of a lower bill for the other 3 of you, what is the appeal to living with Olive other than "she's a friend?"

Let me throw my 2 cents in here.

I've been renting a house with a guy for the last 4 years. I rent the basement bedroom and share the house. He and I are practically like best friends/brothers, and I randomly found this place for rent on kijiji when I moved here. It's pretty awesome that we get along so well.

However, we always needed a 3rd roommate to help pay for the house. He had 2 of his friends living with him before, and he didn't want all guys in the house, so we looked for a female roommate about a month after I moved in.

We found this really nice girl who was pretty good looking, and was quiet, courteous (most of the time) and generally kept to herself. She lived with us for a year and a half. Near the end, her boyfriend at the time was staying here sometimes 5-6 nights a week. It wasn't bad because they were in her room, keeping to themselves and not distracting us. But it was the fact he was here ALL the time that was annoying us. Was he helping pay utilities that he was using? Both of them would come in late at night, and make noise opening and closing doors all night long, causing us to hear it, and make the dog freak out and bark. Finally, she moved out and bought a house with him.

We needed a roommate again. My home owner knew this girl through a friend. We let her move in. Big mistake. Complete slob. Never cleaned up after herself. In and out at stupid hours, always had friends over during the week and being loud. Brought home random guys to fuck. After 3 months, we were sick of it, and her, and kicked her out.

A couple months later, the first girl who lived with us broke up with her boyfriend and left the house to him. She moved back in with us, and we were more than happy to have her back because we liked her and knew her, so we felt comfortable to let her move in again. After 6 months with us, she got a job transfer to Ontario and moved out.

Once again, needed a roommate. Found this girl who was a university student. Claimed to be quiet and clean and only needed a place for about a year. She shows up. Weird ass dreadlock vegetarian save the whales tree hugger hippy. Whatever, we can deal with that. She was super nice.

She moves in. Within about a week, the house had this awful stale grandma's attic smell from all her hippy shit. Like, whatever the hell all natural foods and stuff she eats. She refused to cook in the kitchen for fear of cross contaminating her good with ours, so she took over the basement bar and turned it into her own personal salad bar, and it fucking reeked. All the time she was always like "oh, you guys should try this and that and try not eating meat and chemicals and blah blah blah". She spilled something once and asked if we had anything to clean it up, so we hand her a Swiffer and she goes "oh, sorry, I can't use that. I'm just not down with the chemicals."

Again, she was another one of those annoying in and out at all hours of the night, waking us up coming home at 1 or 2am every weeknight, thumping and banging around the house as she came in. Like, no respect whatsoever. Taking showers at 2am and using her fucking blowdryer in the room beside mine. Like, really? She was just weird too. She would have a shower in the evening or something, while we're still up, and then she's walking around the house either topless or naked doing laundry and stuff. We were like wtf? Would have been okay if she was half decent looking atleast.

After about 4 months we were finally completely fed up with her hippy stupidness, her lack of respect for us and her hippy stink, so we kicked her out.

Our house got remortgaged a couple months ago, so for me to pitch in an extra $50/mo on my rent, he and I can afford the house on our own. With the 2 of us here, there's more room, more peace and quiet and no awkwardness coming home to your own place and feeling weird that there's other people living amongst you.


I'd say cut this Olive chick out of the equation if you don't want trouble. If 3 of you can afford the house, great. If not, I'd find someone else.

Good luck.

From personal experience... You consider your friend a brother? That in itself is a recipe for destruction. I let a friend move in with me after a fight with his step dad... 5 months later i gave him the boot because he was taking advantage of my family and my kindness. I haven't talked to him in over a year now and every time i see him i have the sudden urge to crush his face in. I used to consider him like a brother.. but after free loading off me and nearly causing not only me and my woman but my child to be homeless... Fuck that kid.

[wildBill83]

I understand why the one girl has to live with you but why does the other have to live there too? I must have missed that part...

Just live with the guy and his girl, leave the other bitch in the dark.

Had a similar situation after high school. Good friend of mine got kicked out of his house and my parents let him rent our basement for a few months. One day he backed into and damaged our neighbour's car and denied it. A few days later he fessed up and repaired the car. Our neighbour and my parents were pissed that he lied about it and kicked him out. After that, things just went south from there. I haven't talked to him in over 6 years. From what I've heard of him through the grapevine, he's doing well for himself, but he's a total egotistical douchebag now, with a "I'm better than you and my shit don't stink" attitude. So yeah, fuck that dude.

As for my current living situation, I never met the guy before I moved in. First time I ever saw him was when I viewed the house, and from that point on we literally became best friends and have lived together for 4 years without a problem. Heck, his family almost considers me one of their own. We're only a couple years apart in age, so him and his family have almost become an adopted family to me, when you consider I picked up and left my family and moved across the country by myself.
