College Roommate Questions?

Question

Hey. 

I'm a 17 year old guy, and I'm going to be attending college this fall. I just had some questions about my roommate. We have met each other before, just so you know. 

I know we should talk about the basic stuff, like who is going to bring the TV and the fridge and all that. But should we also talk about "openness", and by that I mean being shirtless and hanging out in boxers and all that. 

My roommate is a pretty fit guy, so I have no problems with that. I'm a pretty fit guy also. But I just don't want it to be awkward when one of us hangs out shirtless and the other one doesn't. 

How do I go about asking him all these questions?

I don't think there is anything wrong for you  to be shirtless when at home and hanging out in boxers relaxing as lots of guys do that . Chances are your roommate may do that when at home too .

both of you could write out a list of things you are comfortable with, and things you're not. Then you could sit down and discuss what would be acceptable and what wouldn't be. You might bring up some points he hasn't, and vice versa. That way, you can both tackle problems that you think you might encounter.

The only way to do this is to ask straightforward or maybe pass his a note,a text message,he would be able to understand.
Who knows,maybe he also wants to ask this question,take initiative
