I've had an attack of anxiety in those months cause I'm going to move to a new city for an internship, so the company who hired me and more people is gonna make an agreement with some appartments for me and some partners of the same country as me.
But I'm very upset with this decision cause I had the roomates experience and it was very bad!! So I don't want to make problems for the company but I think that is very important point to talk about with the company, but I'm so afraid to seem a problematic person. How can I solve this?

You can ask first if there is any way that you can have a place to yourself, perfectly fine for you to ask this. Maybe figure out in advance a brief way you can explain why you don't want room mates, without going into a lot of detail.
I've had some bad experiences sharing a living space and also some good experiences. You might actually have good room mates! ![]() If you at least have a room to yourself with a door you can close, hopefully that will help a lot. Good luck!

Not all roommates are the same and maybe since they work for the same company they will be better because you will have that in common. I would first see what happens, how it is all set up and how many roommates there are. If there are many, then you can make friends with some who think like you do and maybe help the others behave right. I do not think the company will pay to do a place just for you, that is expensive.
How long will you be there? Maybe it will not be too long and you can just not spend any time there with the other people but be more on your own except when you are sleeping.

I've actually been in a similar situation. My senior year of college, I needed to find a roommate to stay in the dorms, well more specifically the one I really wanted to live in. I was even willing to move in with some girls who had an ad up for needing a roommate for the university apartments, but that did not work out because I contacted them too late. So, I ended up going to housing sign ups all by myself and randomly placed with someone, but fortunately in the dorm I wanted to live in. It actually didn't turn out too bad either. The girl I got placed with actually was so much nicer and better than the girl I had been living with for 2 years before that, and we chose to live with each other. So yeah, sometimes random roommates turn out better than ones you planned.
I don't know how old you are, but if they are doing work placement living, it might not be so bad. More than likely you might end up with people with some common interests. If it is not so good though, at least try to find 1 person you can count on, so you don't go crazy.
