I go to my school yak asking questions as a first time student and all people did was make fun of me and call me lazy for not contacting my roommates. Like idk maybe i don’t know because this is my first time 😭😭 My move in day today feels ruined 😔

Girl move in day is the least of your worries, my second roommate literally had no social media so I couldn’t even find her if I wanted too and she turned out to be pretty chill. No best friends found for me personally, but you also do have the option to request a change if it’s bad. Secondly school yaks are just frat bees and rumors let it go mommas you’ll be just fine

Welcome to college, your move in day is not ruined at all. Some people contact their new roommates beforehand. Others meet on the first day. It depends on what you’re comfortable with. Living with someone new is always going to be a gamble, but try to be open minded. You won’t always find your best friend, but two people can still get along enough to co-exist.

Negative people that spend their morning downvoting for no reason lol. Listen, You’re going to make mistakes, it’s a part of the process and you will figure it out. You’ll meet tons of people, some will stick around, most won’t. This has nothing to do with you or your personality. They’re meeting just as many people and real good friends are hard to come by. Don’t let any of this discourage you, these will be some of the best years of your life, ups and downs included.

Thank you thank you!! 🩷🩷🩷 I’m not too worried about the roommate thing. But one of my roommates from their profile seem like a Debbie downer, but I hope they’re not.

What do you mean by that? Like she seems depressed or like a narcissist?

Like a narcissist type of thing. She’s against roommates having guests over, she doesn’t like tv’s playing out loud, she wants everyone to go to bed early and not stay out late, she doesn’t wanna share anything (which i understand) but she also made it clear she’s not comfortable with the lgbtq community

Well here’s the best part, either she’s gonna open up and see the light that other people live on the planet earth, or she will get worse and you can move out to a different room. But 100% remain in control, so exactly what you want then. If she imposes her self on you living a regular lifestyle like TV before idk 9pm no headphones, she needs to grow up or fully explain why it is troubling her and her studies

Yikyak brings out the worst in people. The people at my college were the kindest people I ever met. But some of the people that frequented yikyak were some of the most vile people I’ve talked to. Totally different experience irl and online
