I am currently living with my very very very best friend and we have not had a single problem. I do not advise most people to live with their best friend. The reason why it works for us is because we have known each other for many years; we have the exact same friends and we came to the exact same college because our interests are practically identical. We both know each other's habits exactly, which is how we knew we would be able to live together. We both are clean, we both spend our time doing homework and just chilling in our own respective rooms. Neither of us drink, party, smoke, or do any sort of drugs. There were no secret habits that she had, and no secret habits that I had. Since we had spent almost all our time together for years before college, there was nothing about each other that we didn't know. It was essentially as if I was living with my sister.

So, I do not suggest you live with your best friend unless you know him/her like the back of your hand and there is nothing that you don't know. If you know their habits and you know how they are in everyday life, you might just be able to make it work. =) My best friend and I have only had one fight in our entire seven years of friendship; we've yet to have even a small skirmish since moving in together. There is no one I'd rather live with. I can't even fathom the idea of ever having a random roommate.
