So it’s just me and my cat, who loves absolutely everybody. I have strict beliefs and values on privacy and respect for each. other property and each other’s space. I’m a very quiet person. I’m a very kept-to-myself person., and From life experiences, I’ve learned that it’s completely and totally. my kind thing to keep to myself. I Keep a low profile, I don’t like to draw that attention to myself. I am just very down to Earth. Not in a relationship, nor am I trying to be in one at all. I’ve got way too much to focus on in life right now- my education. I don’t drink, I don’t smoke, I do use a small pen-like nicotine vape. I own three air purifiers because my last place was terrible and had mold in the air ducts. It would be 100% easier for both of us as well as in the best interest of maintaining a positive environment within the household if my roommate and I held similar interests, morals, and values. Obviously, no two people are exactly alike, so it’s understandable that we may disagree at times. Due to this Inevitable circumstance, knowing that we are going to have disagreements now, we should Be proactive. I’m all about keeping everything kosher. I do not like to deal with drama. I am too old for that. I am too. grown for that. I’m an adult. Therefore, without being said, my Roommate and I would need to come up with a plan of approach. We should put something down and written down in paper saying that okay if X. y., n., Z. Happens and I get mad or you get mad, then this is how we handle it. If we can’t face each other, then. we just stay in our rooms for a little bit or write a note to each other or whatever. I am open to anything but arguing I despise arguing. It is so pointless. Period of talking? Absolutely. I knlw for a fact raising your voice at another person to try to get your point across…. is not going to get your point across. All that other person is hearing is the hostility Turn your talents and other words coming out of your mouth. They’re not hearing anything or saying they’re just hearing your anger. And that’s not productive for anybody. So. I will be adult about handling conflict as possible, to not let things escalate to a point that it doesn’t need to. I’m not Signing up to have a roommate and all this. just for my Save spot. I guess you could call it or my place of peace to also be chaotic and hostile. I’m not an angry person. There needs to be clear & firm written guidelines on how each of us go about doing this whole roommate thing so signing a roommate agreement/contract is a must. Trust me, I know this whole. thing I’m writing sounds extreme, but you’ll think me sleaze understand that I have been in a situation before. Actually, a couple. And you live and you learn. So. this is to save both you and me from issues or complications or yeah, I Just don’t have the energy or the mind space to put up with Those situations again, I would rather be proactive and. and I’m not asking you to sign your life away or anything. It’s just so that we can get along better and understand each other and cohabitate easier. It’s to benefit you and I. The roommate contract agreement is easy, you can print out. syllable ones on Google and. Google. And because. of some law or another once they are assigned and the roles are addressed then. it is legally binding. I mean, it could be changed. Like if we both agree. Yeah, sure. Whatever. We can change it. Print another one out. Whatever But it’s just like a way to keep things in line so that there’s structure in the house and like, not complete and total chaos. Again, not trying to scare you here. None of it should bed the least bit intimidating at all. If you’re an exam like me, you’re thinking to yourself. Yes, this is what I want. This is perfect. Just want you to know this will help us both understand each other’s roles/duties/who does what & when etc. I do own a car. However, I am not a taxi driver. I’m a very giving person to the point where it’s. a downfall to me, so I have to make these boundaries for myself and make them very clear. So I don’t wind up biting myself in the you know what. I mean, other than that, you just kinda have to get to know me, to know me. I can’t really write it on paper. I’m just really down to Earth. I am. my own person. Really. I don’t do so. media that much I. I mean, I don’t know., That’s not a bad thing. I’m really easy to get along with once. you get to know me And the one thing I don’t tolerate. The one thing I want to tolerate. is lying and. I am really big on trust. I am really big on. being transparent on your word. Like what you say you’re going to do. You do or. if you make a mistake, just own up to it. That’s how I do it. It’s scary at first. But the more you do stuff that scares you, the easier it gets. I mean, everyone’s going to screw up at that point or another in life. Trust me, I’m not going to scream at you. I’m not going to yell at you. I just ask that you be honest and upfront with me, and I will do the same because how can a household function when there is no trust? Loyalty, authenticity. You know what I mean. I don’t need to know every like tiny detail every little thing you do. That’s not what I’m getting at. I mean, if. you make like a legitimate. big mistake or what? You know something? Something that needs to be brought up Just bring it up and I’ll do the same. Like. treat each other the way we want each other to treat each other, even though that was super confusing to say, but made sense. I think? I have a really sarcastic. and goofy personality, by the way. Hope you don’t mind that, but in the end. I’m going to be me regardless, I. will respect you as well. Who you are I’m not going to like everything about you. I’m going to go ahead and say that I don’t even know you, but. I’ll still respect you for who you are. The good, the bad and in between. And with that being said, I think I’ve said enough so. there’s that Sorry for the typos. Voice to text. And this is a lot that I just wrote. So I really don’t feel like going back and doing all the punctuation fixing and this, that and the other. So. I’m just going to go ahead and click the. continue button.. :)
