Agree with the comments about not being easy sharing with a friend. I shared with a close friend once, we didn't speak for a couple of years afterwards
, and other friends of mine (I did warn them !!!!
) after living together also ended up falling out, two of them still not sorted it and the other two only now after a couple of years are becoming mates again. I've had two friends ask if they could share with me, I just smiled and hoped they didn't bring it up again, they didn't phew
and now two more of my friends despite warnings from absolutely everyone (as these two do not get on at all or whatsover, always arguing and basically don't like each other very much) have stupidly decided to house share, the chaos has already started with them.
Male friends that have shared didn't seem to have the same problem. Maybe their way is healthier, they rip each other to bits have it out say what they want to say then it's gone and forgot about.
A stranger who then becomes a mate through sharing sounds like a better way, though can understand your frustration and concern about oddballs ! be careful and best of luck hope it all works out for you.
