Best Friends Dorming together?

<p>My best friend and I both got into UCI and pretty much are going there. </p>

<p>I thinks it's exciting that were going to the same college, but do you think it's a bad idea if we became roomates? I've heard that it's bad for the friendship and your own social life in breaking out to met new people. Is there a way that we can be in the same hall instead?</p>

<p>you can request a roommate, but i don't think you can request being in the same hall. I guess you can ask, but I've never seen it done before. </p>

<p>How good of a friend is he/she? I know you said he/she is your best friend, so if you have spent a ton of time together already, then living together would probably be okay.</p>

<p>we're really close even though we've only been friends for 2 years, as we hang out every day and we just became god sisters.</p>

<p>I want to dorm with her, but she said that she heard that it destroys friendship and personal social life in a health & life class. I can't force her to dorm we me, but we both want to be near each other.</p>

<p>whatever you do
please dont dorm with her;
living together makes or breaks a relationship
i know from experience (not in college though)
and still being an adolescent/young adult
it almost never works out well
i know how you feel about the "sister" connection
you probably even feel it's deeper than anyone else
but please trust me
if you want to stay friends
don't be roomates
college is a chance to branch out
and find out who you are as an individual; not as part of someone else
you can both live together in the same dorm and even on the same floor but you need to have your own space to develop YOUR character over the next 4 years</p>

<p>my friend and i are planning on dorming together</p>
