My friend and I agree on many topics.
- We love the same kinds of video games.
We are fans of many of the same kinds of TV shows and movies. We both love tabletop gaming as well. It’s always good to find someone who’s the same kind of nerdy as you are, in short. Honestly, with us sharing so many hobbies and interests, it seemed like a new brainer for us to get an apartment together. And the truth is, it’s worked out rather nicely these past couple years. Yes, we get along just fine. Well, we would get along perfectly if it wasn’t for one simple thing. We have pretty much the exact opposite ideas of what is a comfortable temperature to set on the thermostat at any given time. You see, my friend, God bless him, is built like a noodle. He’s thin and has serious difficulty holding on to any sense of heat or warmth. He’s the type you’ll see in the middle of the summer with a hoodie and fingerless gloves on! I, on the other hand, am built, shall we say, a bit more husky? I really don’t have any problem staying warm. As a result, if it wasn’t for his input, the thermostat in the apartment would remain at 69° virtually at all times. My roommate couldn’t possibly abide such a temperature, though. He’s more of a 77° type of guy! Needless to say, when he’s away at work or doing something else and I happen to be at the house alone, I absolutely love it, because I can set the temperature to whatever I please. He feels much the same, but we have to come to some sort of compromise when we’re together.
