Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Telling stories about circulating friends' private text messages is unethical and invasive of their privacy, and may lead to the roommate distrusting or disliking Omar. The other techniques (pretending to share interests, giving compliments, sharing positive achievements) are all effective ways to build rapport and establish a positive relationship with a roommate.
