I must be mad, but have been looking for a replacement over the last few weeks. No more couples though, and have a bunch more questions to ask.
I am looking too. I don't want singles that want an occasional sleepover for their partner, you dontknow where it will lead.
I am advertising as single, but it is a double bed, which I am thinking about replacing with a smaller bed. It would give more space in the bedroom too.0 -

I'm indifferent to the idea of an occasional sleep over, as long as it is only the odd occasion. Even although I've not advertised the room yet, had a young lady phoning this morning - I need to step back and have a breather before making a decision.Her courage will change the world.

If they want a partner to sleep over then having a single bed probably wouldn't make any difference. I've shared a single bed with a partner many a time.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.0 -

I am wanting people to share my house that are of a similar age, I have had interest from a male of similar age, I sent a message to a female of similar age and she has a room, but she wants to meet-up. :T0 -

I haven’t had one since halls of residence!
Yes, it would feel strange, but its only a medium sized room, so taking up the extra space makes a difference.0 -
I don't know why I just spent half hour reading this, but it was thoroughly entertaining. OP, you are wild!0

OP, you are wild!
Have you seen my profile picture yet ?
Been chatting to a young lady this afternoon, and if she doesn't find somewhere else, she will jump in to my (spare) bed when it becomes available - Need to deep clean the room and finish decorating. Also happy to share the (use of) bath. Her girlfriend is short (5'2"), so won't need much space if/when she stays over for a night or two.
Looking forward to curling up in front of the fire, a chick-flik on the telly, and a bottle or two of good wine.Her courage will change the world.

:rotfl:
Because being 5,2 in height makes all the difference;)
OP jokes aside I hope you have better luck this time round.0 -
