Re: Experiences of living a dorm life...
I lived in a dorm on campus..We called our dorms 'houses' and *I lived with 2 intelligent and beautiful girls. Nothing scandalous to report here. I was becoming more and more religious while being away from home, so I avoided any haram activities. Besides, we were all pretty busy with classes, activities, and work that we rarely saw each other during the week. *
Both were really great girls who kept the place neat and clean. On the weekends they did cook during the afternoons but did not cook the haram animal because they knew that it would make me uncomfortable. One of the girls did drink wine from time to time, but only in her room. At least once a month we would hang out, go have dinner, or hit the gym.
They would have boyfriends and breakups, vacations and trips home..all through that we seemed to have managed pretty well. Never had a fight or argument. My friends would think that I was a lucky guy for living with two girls and would always make inappropriate remarks what they thought was going on in our suite, but we kept everything halal.
After graduating, we have still kept in touch. One went back to Greece to work in the Foreign Ministry and the other stayed in the States to become a TV reporter (maybe of your city?). When we met up last year at the big football game, when our school played Yale, it was like meeting your long lost sisters.
