I was wondering if you have any advice for living with a roommate of the opposite sex. I'm a girl and will soon be living with a guy. A lot of people are telling me they think we'll hook up, etc. but I think that would be really weird. I want to insure that we keep our roommate relationship totally platonic and happy, so what's the easiest way to tell him that I'm not interested in being anything but roommates and friends?-- Roxy, Colorado State University Probably the easiest way to tell him that you're not interested in being anything but roommates and friends is to say "Hey, I don't want us to be anything but roommates and friends." But seriously, just don't get into the "mixed signals" department. Make sure you're body language isn't sending a different message than you're intending him to receive. If you have a tendency to be flirty or touchy-feely with guys, make a conscious effort NOT to do so with this guy. Have guys over, talk about your boyfriends, and treat him like one of your girlfriends -- unless you have a tendency to makeout with your girlfriends. But remember, horny/desperate/interested guys will interpret anything you say or anything you do to mean "maybe she's interested in me". Try to stay away from comments like "wow, I wish I could find a guy like you" or "wow, you look really good tonight". You don't want this guy mistakenly thinking he makes you hotter than your the stash of naked Brad Pitt photos you keep under your bed. Anyway, moving on from the masturbatory habits of our female staffers.... if all else fails and you really want to make sure he doesn't think of you as more than a friend, try you might want to try some combination of the following drastic measures:
If all that still doesn't work, well, then we can't help you and it looks like you've got yourself a genuinely obsessed, creepy, psycho-stalker, wannabe-boyfriend living with you. Good luck! -- The College Guy P.S. If you really try all the above measures and this guy STILL wants you, then you must be DAMN hot and you should ditch the obsessed roommate and move into the extra bedroom at AskTheCollegeGuy.com headquarters.
