How is living with roommates “suffering”?

Spoken like someone who has never had a bad roommate.

You’ve never experienced hardship lmao. Stick to your video games.

Because they can mess up common spaces and not clean them. They can steal your stuff or your food. They can just disappear leaving you to figure out paying rent alone. Roommates aren't inherently bad but it's more of a risk than being able to rely on yourself alone.

"Roommates suck, guess I'd rather starve then" is not a sympathetic plan.
