So My Current roommies, well I should say one of them just told they were looking for a house, Let me say I've know about this for about a month now, and in that month not one of them has come to my face and said it. So one just came today and said it. So they won't be a roommies for Junior year, so it looks like I'm going to have to go back on the need a roommate list again. I just keep to myself, I would rather read a good book than go to a party and get wasted. It's just not me.
I just starting to wonder is it me or something? I'm introverted, so maybed I should just seek a single room, but I know that if I do its going to cost a good penny more. So what should I do really? Should I start looking for a new roommate now or what?

No sweetie, it's not YOU....the fact your two roommies haven't asked you to join them in sharing a house is probably due to the fact you have a different character than theirs. (a DIFFERENT character, which so NOT means that's a bad thing)
I can't tell you what to do, I can only tell you what I would do if i were in your situation : I would go back on the "need a roommate"-list, and I would add my preference for what kind of roommies you're interested in. (there really are many others like you, who rather read a good book than go to a party.....those people will be happy to share a room with you!)
Good luck!

Look for a new roommate. I say this for a couple reasons.
1. Why do you think its YOU that is not 'adequate' perhaps your roommate who is moving out is the odd man out.
2. If you do need some social conditioning, then living on your own is not a way to do that. Experiment more, try new roommates perhaps if you do have some growth and development this is a means to do it.
3. Your roommate could be moving out for his own reasons that have nothing to do with you, and that would be private for him. Unless he has said there is an issue, I would not assume there is one.
4. You sound as if you want to 'change' or think you need to. Perhaps living with others will show you that your style is fine for you and fine for some others too. You are coming across as being a bit insecure about your own style. Living with others will help you either become secure in who you are, or make you decide that you might want to change something.
So... I think you should get a new roommate.
My opinion only.

*sighs*, please don't listen to the yo-yo with the ASCII middle finger- that wasn't very respectful. Nothing wrong with being an introvert; money is always an issue- my best advice is to keep a budget- I do and it really helps balance you out, itemize, etc. If you feel in your heart that you need to be looking elsewhere for a flatmate, then by all means do what you are comfortable with. Lay down a set of rules and get someone to assist- more than likely you will find you are not alone and there is someone else out there in your same situation, who needs a roommate too and has monetary morals. I wish you all the best in your decisions.

If you were me, i would set out to look for another roommy now.
Sometimes you think you are likely to be introverted, but maybe when you choose no roommates, you will feel more alone and lonely, besides more costs. just my humble opinion.

If you really think that they are going to move out, then I'd start looking for a new roommate now so that you have plenty of time to screen them. I'm a lot like you. I keep to myself and I don't party. It's kind of hard to find other people like us.

Start looking now. Seek a roommate that shares your quiet life-style.
When I lived in a dorm, I had a single room, and I ended up sharing it with another woman, and three cats :-))
We all got along famously!

GO UP TO YOU CURRENT ROOMMATE AND ASK IF THEY THEIR ROOM WILL BE VACANT OR NOT, IF SO START LOOKING FOR A ROOMMATE AND LOOK FOR SOMEONE THAT IS SOMEWHAT LIKE YOU. YOU WOULD BE SURPRISED AT HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE LIKE YOU. SOME ACTUALLY GO TO SCHOOL TO LEARN AND NOT PARTY. GOOD LUCK SWEETIE
