Why are American university students fine with sharing a room?

Hell, I grew up sharing a room with my (step-)sister for a while and frankly it was terrible! She got the side that didn’t have the fucking door and the fucking oil-fired-oven (the house didn’t have central-heating at first, my parents bought a house that was not up to modern standards and it took a while to fix it up!)…so next to my small bed (kid sized!) I had little room for anything! Hell, it was near “paradise” having that room to myself later on (sister got an almost equally large room in the attick that we rebuilt as additional living space!)

I don’t know!

So yeah, never doing that again ever! I’d rather sleep in a fucking tent below a bridge! At least that allows some privacy! Sharing a room does not!

I’m a 25 year old teacher teaching at boys school & I have colleagues younger than me. I caught one of my students telling her he wanted her as his teacher instead & it hurt my feelings. They compliment her a lot. It makes me jealous. What do I do?
