Your score = 75
What does your score mean?

According to this test you are a model roommate. You understand and appreciate the motto "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you". You respect and communicate with your roommate(s) and when difficulties arise (and they always do) you are willing and able to compromise. By taking on the role of a good roommate you are getting the most out of the relationship. One final note, this result does not mean you never have roommate conflicts or disputes but it does indicate that you deal with them in a healthy manner. Congrats!

Actually, I sulk too much to be a good roommate, but this test asked nothing about that sort of behavior.

On the other hand, i do admit to waiting at home today because I expected my roommate to come home with groceries (I'm trying to save some money, and hey he offered me the food without my asking...but then he had probably just seen how all my refridgeratore/freezer spaces were nearly bare

According to this test there is room for improvement in your roommate skills. You may have the best intentions, but you also may be oblivious to some of your roommate's needs and wishes. If this is the case--don't despair, the situation is not hopeless, and a couple of adjustments can go far. Before you plunge into sharing your personal space with someone else, make sure you know what your expectations are, what your bottom line is, and how your potential roomie fits in. For instance, it's best if both (all) of you abide by similar standards of cleanliness. If you are into neatness and your buddy's idea of clean is stuffing empty pizza boxes under the bed, you will surely bang heads eventually. It is also important to clearly define and respect house rules and to discuss everything that is going to be shared (bills, chores, etc) so you can hammer out all the logistics before any conflicts arise. Make an attempt at being more tuned in and try to talk more openly when you feel there is tension in the air. The simplest way to become a better roommate is to ask yourself what you would expect from your roommate(s) in specific situations and then try acting accordingly (of course this requires that your expectations are within certain norms). Good luck!

I only had 1 roommate in my life and we worked different shifts and never saw each other. I DO NOT like to live w/ other people besides my kids.

Another quiz I know will just piss me off. I can't be a roommate. Always lived with my guy - so's not to have to deal with roommate nonsense. Tried it once - fought over the thermostat. And the refrigerator shelves. Then she let her friend hang out. Ooh the memories are not good.

I never had a room mate, thus I know nothing about the accurateness of my score.
