How easily do you tolerate a friend who later becomes a roommate?

[Gochogirl]

I hear a lot of horror stories of friendships ending after co-habitating. I've been living with friends for about a year now and it's been wonderful! A lot of time it seems too good to be true, really. Fair chores, easy conflict resolution, everyone gets the privacy or socializing they need from each other.

Is this more common than I think? Or are we a bunch of unicorns?

Never had a problem. Best mate and I shared a house for over a year. Had fewer arguments than I've had with my wife. Introduced him to his wife.

They're still married and we're all still good friends, so I think it was ok...

depends on their habits

Depends on the friend I think. Me and my best friend have lived together and it went amazing but we’re literally the same person just in separate bodies. I let another friend stay with me once and it did not go well.

Some people can be best friends but can’t live together.
