Question for TC fans over 21 years old - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TVFactFan · 11-08-2005, 11:56 AM

In All Honesty, would anyone on here want to share an apartment with TWO people?-lol I mean there would be all kind of privacy issues and the use of the phone and lots more. I mean who would want to be in this situation in real life? Yeah it would make it a little easier financially but if i had to move in with two people to make it that means I would need another job-lol

Number 9 Dream · 11-08-2005, 12:42 PM

Nope, not at all....I don't even think I could live with one person, to tell you the truth. I like my privacy.

BSDDomi · 11-08-2005, 01:43 PM

not to ruin the whole thing but when I worked for Compaq Computers in Dublin, Ireland I used to share a house with three other guys, no problem at all, we all had our own room and privacy, the only problem I saw was the tiny fridge we had to share

...and yes, I am a woman..I don't think I would want to share an apartment again though, I now have my own apartment but Dublin was very expensive at that time and the only way for us to afford the rent was to share a house or bigger apartment with girls or boys, that's what most of us did...

MrsRitter · 11-08-2005, 07:16 PM

My brother lives with 2 other guys (No, he is not gay.). They all have cell phones and no house phone. so that solves the problem for phones... they dont really have a fridge problem...they all cook themselves (or get fast food) and dont eat each others food. They all shared the rent too.

Moonlight Lady · 11-08-2005, 07:35 PM

I wouldn't want to live with two other people. If I were to move out, I'd rather live alone.

Vegas Girl · 11-08-2005, 07:51 PM

I don't like sharing a bathroom with two other people, or anyone that I'm not really comfortable with. I savor my privacy.

PrettyinPink55 · 11-08-2005, 08:14 PM

I too savor my privacy, and could NEVER share a bathroom with anyone but I've always secretly thought it would be really fun to live with two other people and have the relationship that Jack, Janet Chrissy/Cindy/Terri did. Oh what adventures and misunderstandings we'd have!

I don't know, Three's Company romanticized the idea for me.

Karen64 · 11-08-2005, 09:09 PM

I wouldn't mind sharing an apartment, or even one bathroom with 1 or 2 others, but I would definately want my own bedroom!

Priscilla's character Terri seemed to work all different hours (including night shift sometimes), so if it were a real life situation, she would have had a real difficulty there (coming home and going to bed at late hours, perhaps trying to sleep when Janet's up getting ready for work, etc)

I always wondered why they always seemed so broke, but yet their clothing budget didn't seem to suffer!

The girls, especially, seemed to have the trendiest, coolest outfits, and (except for the early seasons) you hardly ever saw them in the same outfit twice!

I've lived in 4 bedroom apartments for 3 years, shared a house with an English boy for 1 year and now share a flat with one boy. The first year of sharing, nobody had mobile phones yet. It's not bad sharing-- usually we'd cook for ourselves, but sometimes we would take turns cooking. I like sharing. It's lonely at home alone. I wanna share with 2 girls next time!!

Well if you live alone at home and feel lonely, that can mean

No hobbies
No cable
No Tv
No Phone
No radio

The only way i can explain it

I believe what this person meant was that sometimes it's easier to have someone sharing an apartment with you because you always have someone to talk to when you get home or to go out with, ok, you might as well say now, why not do this with friends...yes, certainly, this is what friends, family and like are for but they can pull you out of a bad mood since they're facing you...

But if someone felt the need the talk can't they use the telephone?-lol

True

- they might as well do that but why move your lazy butt to the next phone when you can ask your roomie to move theirs for you and entertain you

nerrad · 11-17-2005, 12:45 PM

No way. I have my own apartment to myself and ask me how I like it
