roommates
I'm not sure what category to actually put this in but I figured this one will work.
Alright so this is my 3rd year in college and last year i roomed with these 2 girls in our dorm room and this year we are living together again in an apartment. The two girls i'm living with have been friends since our first year in college and i didn't hang out with them or talk to them much our first year. we started to talk more during our second year in school and i switched into their room. anyways, now we are in our third year of school and things are different than they were last year. i feel left out because those two are so close since they have been friends for about 3 years now. they got together over the summer sometimes because they live within an hours drive from each other while i live a good 3 hours from them so i only saw them 1 time over the summer. but now i just feel like they are really close and i'm not as close with them and we don't really have much in common.
my other two friends are transferring to my college next year and i'd much rather live with them because we get along really well i can talk to them about anything and i feel like i'd enjoy myself more if i lived with people that i had things in common with and that i didn't feel left out with. i just don't feel comfortable living around them really. sometimes i feel like i have to watch what i say, think about things before i say it.
the problem i have is how do i bring up the fact that i don't want to live with my current roommates anymore? i want to still be friends with them and i don't want to make anything awkward by me telling them that i want to live with other people. i just feel like if things are going to continue going how they are that we'll end up getting in fights and end up not being friends at all.

Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
Just be upfront with them, but not rude. Make it clear to them that you still would love to be friends and hang out more but you would feel more comfortable with people you have been friends with for a while. If they seem to have so much in common then tell them that you are sure it would work out for the both of you and that yall should really all hang out sometimes. If they are really friends they will understand, which I am sure they will see it how you do as well.
Hope I could help.
