This is a topic that college roommates have been dealing with for a long time. She needs to talk to her roomie and they can figure out what will work for them (a sign on the door when the couple needs some "alone time", limits on visits or just letting each other know when they don't want to be interrupted (for any reason) The sex of the SO does not really matter. The next step would be the RA if they can't work it out themselves.

+2. This is not a situation for you to deal with, OP. She's an adult and has to handle this like everyone who has ever had a roommate.[/quote]I haven't gotten the impression that OP was intervening or calling the school.  It sounds like DD has reached out for advice for handling a delicate situation.

It's easy to say she's an adult but the fact is that most 18 year olds are being exposed to situations on unfamiliar turf, and lacking practical experience are unsure how to proceed.  DD is fortunate that she has someone that she trust to discuss how to handle a delicate situation as hers.  After talking with OP, she can go the RA to discuss viable solutions and/or just talk to her roommate.

The wisest of people seek counsel when treading on unfamiliar turf.  It doesn't sound like DD went whining to mommy but sought out practical advice from a trusted source before proceeding.  [/quote]
