My partner and myself share a house with another couple and it’s a great arrangement for us. We’re close friends, we all give each other plenty of space, and it’s nice to have our chosen family involved in our day to day lives.
I think the most important aspect is making sure everyone has their own space they can go to get away from others. We all need our alone time!
Yeah, exactly. If I could end up in a situation like this longterm, I’d be happy.
For a while in my early 20s, I was staying with a friend of my parents because I just moved to a new city and she offered. She has a small house, as part of an enclave of about 20 houses built around a big common area, including workspaces, a massive kitchen and other amenities. They had a cooking schedule, so everyone in the 20 houses cooks at some point for the entire little community, and you just show up at dinner time for a meal if you’re not cooking that day. It’s super well organized and everyone seemed pretty happy with the setup.
I LOVED it. If I could achieve or find that one day I’d never leave…
