Ask Taylor

I live with three other girls...

We go through a lot of tough situations, such as boyfriend drama, boys that are not our boyfriends drama, wild girl problems, sex, work, school, etc. You name it and we've been through it! Everyone seems to get along for the most part! I'm the roommate that seems to always be in the middle of it all. I've decided to give you guys a few steps to work out your problems with your roommates, or even friends.

1. Never go behind each others backs and talk about another roommate. This doesn't end well.
2. Set up a good meeting time where everyone can get together and discuss whats been going on in life, and some how bring up the issues that have been occurring.
-if nothing is being said, then you need to be the one to get it started, if you don't then nothing will be accomplished.
3. Make plans with your roommate(s) to have a week day dinner, watch a TV show once a week together, movies, bake something, go out to ice cream. (In our house everyone's weakness is fro-yo).
4. Include everyone! Send out a nice text inviting everyone to go out for some drinks after work. If it only ends up that one of them can go, GO! And if the others get upset that you still went without them... don't feel bad. They missed out on a good time!
5. Have a white board with chores, and everyone's schedules on it so everyone can be up to date with everything going on.
6. The most important thing to remember is that you need to communicate, if you keep everything built up inside you could A. lose a friend, B. always be stressed out, C. move out and be homeless.
I hope these steps help you and your roommates out! If you have any questions, or want to vent about your living situations I'm here for you!

Laws on PDA:
 It's good to show affection to your special someone. It's what every relationship needs. There should be some set rules on how to express your love in a safe and classy way. I've caught myself judging/rolling my eyes at couples showing some PDA in public. What you do at home or in a private place is entirely up to you (no judging on that). I look at it as don't do anything in public that you don't want your parents to see.  

Approved PDA:
 Hugs
 Holding Hands
 A Quick Kiss
 What I'm trying to say is that not everyone needs to witness your affection towards you and your significant other.
