9 Ways to Know Your Freshman Roommate is Going to Be Your BFF for Life

Aww! #SQUADGOALS.

1. You sleep in the same room together every night.
You share a one room double, so you sleep in the same room every night. If that doesn’t mean you’re bonded for life, we don’t know what does.

2. She gives you space.
She avoids being in the room when you’re there, and often asks you to leave when her boyfriend Jeff comes over. Which is pretty much every night. When she sees you in public, she rarely acknowledges you. She has a totally different set of friends that you don’t know at all. Because even BFFs need space some time.

3. You share everything.
You know how she always takes your pita chips without asking? That is just so you guys because you are so tight.

4. You have the same favorite foods.
Would two people that weren’t meant to be besties forever both like cheese pizza? Um… we think no.

5. She knows your class schedule.
She knows you have a 9L, but still listens to Friends without earphones until the early hours of the morning. But it’s totally chill, because you guys are likethisclose.

6. You know everything about each other.
Well, you know everything about her. Because you read her journal.

7. You tell each other everything.
You tell her you think the commitment issues Jeff expressed on the night of 9/23/15 might be a relationship red flag. She asks you if you read her journal. She calls you a fucking creep and says she hopes you’d die. Which is completely fine, because BFFs are honest with each other!

8. You have the same sarcastic humor.
Remember when she told you those cool purple pants made you look like a fat whale and she thought the way you decorated your bulletin board with pink twinkle lights was really tacky and she hated you as a roommate and she wished you would fail Orgo so you could leave this school so she and Jeff could have the room to themselves? Besties love to joke like that. LOL!

9. When you send her this article about being BFFs forever, she doesn’t respond.
You know each other so well you don’t even need to express it in words. Its almost too perf.
