<p>I was just wondering if anyone else had a roommate who parties and drinks and got along pretty well with them. I'm not a drinker nor do I party often so I'm just wondering if its possible for those two types of people to get along as roommates.
Thanks</p>
<p>I do. Our schedules differ a lot so we don’t see each other much but otherwise the ground rules are laid, there is open communication, and we get along just fine. I’m a bookworm so I’m around a lot while she’s out.</p>
<p>Whether you’ll get along depends less on drinking/not drinking than other basic personality attributes:</p>
<p>Do you respect each others’ belongings and personal space?
Do you each make an effort to be quiet if the other is sleeping or studying?
Are you non-judgmental and courteous toward one another?</p>
<p>Those are the things that matter.</p>
<p>just ask for preferences</p>
