We all make mistakes. And some mistakes need to be made once, to get it out of the way. So you can begin the rest of your life. For example, living with a couple. Most people will tell you, "Well duh, of course that's a bad idea." But it begins so innocently, with so much temptation.

1. You desperately need to get to work, but they're arguing in the bathroom and you feel uncomfortable interrupting. 2. Your allegiance goes back and forth between the two of them. Is she taking things too seriously, or is he being a dick? 3. You're often tempted to come out and testify like a witness as to who said what in previous conversations. 4. When there's a break in the argument, they recede to their respective corners, like boxers. 5. And after all that drama, they're giggle flirting an hour later. 6. What sounded like a serious heartfelt argument ended up being about something really dumb. 7. They love giving relationship advice, because theirs is working SOOOOOOOOOOOO well. 8. They'll have date nights in the living room. (AKA Roommates, ​please disappear for the night.)

"We have an extra room and the rent is way cheap!" You walk in and what the -- this place is way nicer than yours! They have all these appliances you don't have! These Williams-Sonoma cereal bowls they got as a wedding gift fit perfectly in your hands!

10. And your TV volume just won't get loud enough. 11. When you walk in and one of them is in their underwear and it's like, "OK, clearly you were just walking around naked." 12. All of their friends are other couples, so if anyone is visiting, they're coming in pairs. 13. When they cook, it looks like a hurricane went through your kitchen, because everything is double. 14. If one of them is messy, or a passive aggressive note leaver, they probably both are -- it's the one harmonious thing about their relationship.

The rose-colored glasses are firmly fastened to your face. But soon the facade crumbles away, because...

15. Regarding decisions about the living space, you only need to find out how one of them feels -- because let's be honest, they're a packaged deal.

9. And there are certain things that signal they are doing it.

17. But they do sort of become the parents of the living space. 18. And like your parents, they're going to be home all the time. 19. If the living situation goes south, you'll have to double your effort to avoid people.


And it doesn't take a genius to realize they're all directed at you.

20. Don't argue with them, because it's always going to be two against one. 21. And that might mean two people stealing your food. 22. Eventually, you'll find a new place to live, but two fewer people to help you move. 23, Finally, the good news: When you finally get out... DOUBLE the relief!

16. They try to combine housing expenses with fishy couple math, as if they're actually showering or using the toilet simultaneously.


There is only one place to hide, and it's in your 8 x 8 "bedroom."


You survived this. You can survive anything.
