Roommate Hunting and Dating

Looking for the ideal roommate is oddly similar to dating (I think, it's been a minute since I've done the latter). You need to make sure you have complementary personalities, that the other person won't be a complete slob that ruins your carefully cultivated abode, that said person isn't a complete oddball that will ruin your home life, is financially stable with a solid job, and basically is just worthy of sharing your life. Because, let's face it, that's what you're going to do. So I'm looking for a roommate in a city where I know NO ONE, and I'm just striking out, as far as I can tell. Since I am a perfectionist in some ways, it's defeating. Because I like to plan as far ahead as possible, it's terrifying. I know it's the kind of thing that just needs to happen the way it happens, but I'm not enjoying this process so far. This probably means I'm going to despise dating. Excellent.

What the hell am I doing?
