Taking in a roomie can be quite tricky. Not only are you opening up your life and its secrets to someone you barely know, but you also stand to be judged for the company you keep. To avoid some serious headaches down the line and pre-empt awkward, potentially dangerous situations, all you have to do is ask the right questions the first time you meet a potential roommate. Actually, it’s sensible to ask these questions even if you’ve known the person socially for a while. Don’t worry, we aren’t suggesting any inquiries that are intrusive or offensive—just a couple of smart questions that will make your home-life happy and pleasant.
