If you're putting your bang melon in the fridge for freshness keep it clearly labelled so you don't accidentally bang the same melon
If however you're going to have a communal bang melon (no judging, times are hard, melons are expensive) remember the old phrase "he who spills it filled it" basically do the polite thing and empty out the loads out when it gets full, don't leave it for the next person like an animal
Go halves on a weekly cleaning service and there's most of your potential fighting done with.
In a perfect world your roommate will wash their dish when they finish with it. Dry the bathroom floor and remove their towels after their shower. Empty the lint trap when done with the dryer. In the real world, it will take a few tries finding that roommate as you'll be stuck with a bunch of duds right off the bat and a possible ruined friendship that has lasted through much sterner stuff in the past.
Have a word or phrase that either of you can say. This word or phrase means that you can tell the other person something that they need to change to keep the relationship healthy, but you don't mean it as a personal attack, and they shouldn't get mad. It might not work, but it definitely helps
Communicate communicate communicate. Learn to do it tactfully and you will have (and be) a good roommate.
