Transitioning from Being an Only Child to Having Roommates
By: Kennae Hunter
When a person grows up as an only child or with a large age gap between siblings, many autonomous
activities and decisions will be performed and made. Most universities require their first-year students to
live on campus, which can be quite a big transition—from never sharing a room to looking at a stranger
24/7 on the other side of your dorm room. When I left my parents’ house to move two hours away, not
only had I never been away from home before, but I never shared a room, or anything, since I am an only
child. It was a coincidence that my first roommate was also an only child, so there was a lot of adapting
on both sides. For perspective, we lived in a dorm room with a bed on each side of the room and a
shared bathroom.
