Hi;

Your writing is well done! It is very logical and well organized.

But there are some minor errors and I have some detailed comments about the style.

juliag12There are many positive and negative reasons for having a roommate.

Reasons are just explanations. Reasons are neither negative or positive, but they can support or refute a particular position.

It is confusing because a statement can be described grammatically as being positive or negative.

Just write: There are reasons for having a roommate or not. or

There are reasons to have or not have a roommate.

I really enjoy the company of people, so, if I could choose whether to have or not to have a roommate, I would prefer to have a roommate over not having a roommate.

First of all, I do not mind sharing my room because (due to the fact that) I have shared my room with my sister since I was four years old.

Personally, I have only had one roommate and she is still my confidant and one of my closest friends, In other words, as soon as you have a roommate you will make a good friend.
And third, I do not like to be alone, for instance, If you have an accident: who will worry because you are not at home? Who will take care of you? It could be a friend: your roommate.

And when you will think and remember all the amazing moments you spend with your roommate you will say that having a roommate was the better option you had ever take.

You are combining first person (I) and second person (you) in an argument. It is not incorrect, but the style is a little awkward. When you write an argumentative essay, you should decide what person (or voice) you will use, and then stick with it.

These are a little smoother.

Second, in my experience, most roommates become close friends because they are not only a neighbor but also a confidant.

... (First person)

And third, I do not like to be alone. For instance, if I had an accident: who will worry because I am not at home? Who will take care of me? It could be a friend: my roommate. or

(Second person)

And third, many people do not like to be alone. For instance, if you have an accident: who will worry because you are not at home? Who will take care of you? It could be a friend: your roommate.
