I was a pretty big loner in HS, and even though most other people annoy the f'ucking shi't out of me, I cannot express how beneficial roommates were to me.
I'd still be a hermit with almost no social interaction if I had lived alone in college. Instead, I'm a hermit with medium social interaction. It's a start.
One of my roommates is in China this semester, and his room was taken by a mutual female friend (paid under the table, she's totally not allowed to live here). I should note I'm in an apartment.
Holy f'uck is she messy / loud / spoiled / annoying. Drives me insane some days. We (four in total in the apartment) have had some serious bonding nights and these are people I'll be friends with for the rest of my life.
In general, to any gamer that doesn't really want/care about social interactions -- I highly recommend roommates. Life is pretty boring without socializing.
