An ideal roommate should have several key characteristics: 1. They should be compatible with their roommate in terms of interests, study habits, and lifestyle to avoid conflicts and allow both students to feel comfortable and relaxed. 2. They must be responsible and honest, doing their fair share of chores and not stealing or lying to their roommate. 3. Tolerance is important, as roommates need to compromise on issues like noise levels during late-night studying to avoid conflicts. 4. Effective communication, such as discussing problems respectfully rather than attacking each other, is vital for addressing issues that come up between roommates.

1. Everybody in this world have their own dream to become successful as what
they want. Somebody think that they must further study to the higher education in the
college and university to gain the dream. When we talk about further study, one of
the related matter that need to thing is about ideal roommate. It is occurred, when we
living far away from our family three or even four year for studying in colleges or
universities. In this new situation, many students have to adapt themselves with
many changes. One of the changes is living or sharing a dorm-room with a
completely strange person. When we need to living with a strange person one thing
that we will always want is an ideal roommate. This is very important to avoid a
problem and conflict between us ang our roommate. What are criteria to become an
ideal roommate? Let’s examine some following suggestion.
Firstly, an ideal roommate should be compatible. Students have to face with a
lot of stressful things when coping with academic subjects in their classes or dealing
with a new environment. So, after facing such a lot of stressful thing they hope their
roommate can be an understanding and dedicated person, with whom they can feel
better, more relaxed and comfortable whenever they are together talking; learning; or
even moaning about their problem. Besides that, living with a roommate who has
many thing in common would be more ideal for them to built understanding and can
avoid a conflict. This situation can make they feel a precious student life, which
seem very challenging and laborious to become more meaningful and memorable. It
also help them avoid lots of trouble. For example, they want to study in quite dorm-
room, but their roommates often listen music to louder. So that compatible attitude
can making them as an ideal roommates for a long period of time.
Secondly, responsibility and honestly are two other good characteristics of an
ideal roommate. This is because, living together with a lazy and irresponsible
roommate during a semester or a year would be a disaster and would ruining the
meaning of student life. Let’s us try to imagine that a roommate who never lifts a
finger to do chores, although they seem very simple things such as cleaning a
bathroom and tidying up her studying corner. Moreover, everything worsens when
they lost the trust at their roommate. They will never be rested in their mind, thereby
cannot focus on their study, while their roommate often stole their things and always
refuse to accept their faults and avoid advise from the roommate to changes the bad

that we can become an ideal roommate.
An ideal roommate also must be a tolerance person. That means, they can
compromise when something happen and give and take in any situation between
both of them. This is very vital criteria if they want to be an ideal roommate because
tolerance can also be a best way to avoid conflict between the roommate. For
example, as a student sometimes they need to stay up at the night for revision or
settle down their assignment because the due date to submit is around the corner. So,
as an ideal roommate you must be tolerance to your roommate to allow her or him to
switch on the lamp if they need to do so. This is show that you can compromise to
your roommate because he or she facing the emergency situation and this is also the
first time he or she do this thing. So, it is means, tolerance need for both of roommate
to be an ideal roommate.
Then, an effective two way communication is also a vital element which
need to applied to became an ideal roommate. It is means, when you and your
roommate have any problem an misunderstanding between both of you, what should
do is make a discussion in a proper conversation. Let your roommate know how you
are feeling. Try not to attack your roommate too much, no matter how frustrated you
are. Try using language that won't make her defensive, too. For example, instead of
saying, "I can't believe how selfish you are when it comes to my things," try saying,
"It really frustrates me that you borrow my clothes without asking." The more you
verbally attack your roommate (or anyone else, for that matter), the more her
defenses are going to go up. Take a deep breath and say what you need to in a way
that is constructive and respectful. After all, you'd want the same from your
roommate, right? And, as hard as it may be, try to listen to what your roommate has
to say without getting defensive or interrupting. It may take you biting your cheeks,
sitting on your hands, or mentally pretending that you're talking on a tropical beach,
but do your best. Your roommate may have some valid reasons behind what's going
on and be frustrated, too. The only way you are going to get to the bottom of
everything is to put it out on the table, talk about it, and see what you can do. You're
in college now; it's time to address this like the adult that you are. Try to address the
things you both said in a way that can satisfy everyone. Most likely, you both won't

3. leave 100% happy, but ideally you can both leavefeeling relieved and ready to move
on. This element can help the student to become an ideal roommate and avoid a
problem between them.
As a conclusion, an ideal roommate should be a congenial, trustworthy,
tolarance, and comsiderate person. Living with a complete stranger would be
difficult and troublesome at the first time, but an ideal roommate, they will together
overcome every obstacle in a rasional as an educated person.
