Finding love and a lesbian roommate at the same time

In this day and age of high rents, expensive homes and break-ups, everyone has probably faced the prospect of looking for a roommate. Fortunately, the internet has made finding a lesbian roommate easier. PrideRoommates.com matches lesbians looking for a place to live with GLBT and gay-friendly homeowners looking to rent out a room.

The way PrideRoommates.com works will be very familiar to those who have perused online personal ads. You register with the site by supplying information about your living habits, pets, and preferences. Once that's done, you can browse the site by state and city. One thing that struck me about the ads was that many seemed to be not so subtly disguised personal ads. Users can post pictures but I don't think I saw one ad that included a picture of a rental, most were pictures of the renters further adding to the classifieds feel. There's even a section devoted to dating so you can kill two birds with one stone. Clever!

Overall, the site seems to live up to its promise of being the "premiere gay roommate and lesbian roommate service," although the ads were primarily gay males with a few women sprinkled throughout. Check it out, it's free.
