<p>If you plan to have your girlfriend as your roommate in renting an apartment. You can either choose a two bedroom place which cost $700 or a one bedroom that cost $640, which one would you choose? If you choose the one bedroom, one of you guys will sleep in the living room.</p>
<p>Two bedroom. It’s only $60 more a month. Would that cause an unnecessary financial burden?</p>
<p>But why can’t you two sleep in the same room? Is it super small or something?</p>
<p>I’d choose option c, not having a girlfriend at all in college.</p>
<p>I don’t know what’s wrong with having a girlfriend in college… </p>
<p>Anyway, I’m with nE1, why can’t you share the bedroom with her? I’d choose the one bedroom and share.</p>
<p>Even if you shared a bedroom, having the extra room is a good idea. Sometimes you just need your own respective areas to yourselves. That’s just from personal experience, things may be different for you.</p>
<p>Get the 2 room apartment-you’ll need the closet space and personal space.</p>
<p>If one of you is more comfortable with the two bedroom, it’s not likely it’s so much more expensive that it’s not worth it to get it-- if your finances are THAT tight it’s probably not a good idea to be getting an apartment.</p>
<p>My boyfriend and I, I am sure, would just get the one bedroom. However we are incapable of getting any work done in the same room so we’d have to make sure there is a desk in the bedroom and a table out in the living room or something. </p>
<p>One of my friends rented an apartment with her boyfriend, starting last spring, and they ended up breaking up promptly at the beginning of Fall, he said he’d find a replacement roommate and pay rent until he managed, and she just found out only her half of the rent has been paid since June (when they were still together!) and now she’s been evicted, owes a ton of money, and her credit score is going to take a big hit. So make damn sure you guys are actually serious enough to handle this.</p>
<p>Personally, I would go for the 2 bedroom and use the 2nd BR as a study room and for extra storage space.</p>
<p>Don’t do this under any circumstances, unless you’re planning to eventually marry her. Living with her is basically marriage anyway. And divorces are always messy. Do some research before you make a decision. At the same time, if you decide not to move in with her, she’ll probably leave you.</p>
<p>Well my bf and I chose to get an apartment with two separate bedrooms. Rather be safe than sorry. Plus its nice to have extra space.</p>
<p>I’d go with the two bedroom, because I like to have space to myself, plus it would be easier to study, if we were having a fight, we could go off to our own space, and if a breakup occurred, it would be less awkward.</p>
