[quote=Anonymous][quote]I don't think the substance of the request is off, given that the person was there and had it last time, but I do agree that the lack of plesantries or a friendly tone suggests that this will not be a great roomate experience. Who wants to live in a room with someone who is not especially friendly or warm? In person I am friendly and warm, but sometimes I just bumble phone calls and emails and come off awkward and cold. I don’t know if you can say what her personality is like just from this one email.[/quote] Um, generally asking something about the new roomate (interests, major, anything at all) rather than just staing that you would like to have the bed and desk you had before, seems like basic courtesy and warmth. The email is bad.[/quote]
