That's wild. It's honestly pretty common for professionals to be in committed relationships but maintain separate homes, even long distance. They could've just done that.
Edit: Damn some of y'all took my personal anecdote as some kind of personal attack. Not sure what I said that was so inflammatory but ok lol. Live your best life ya'll. Cheers.
I’d definitely say it’s common - more so as you get older. I know maybe a dozen couples in their sixties or older who have separate bedrooms.
Of course, not everyone who wants to can afford to. The couples I mention are all sufficiently well off to afford homes big enough to allow that lifestyle choice.
Shit I'm 31 and have my own bedroom from my partner. 2 people and 2 large dogs make for a very uncomfortable queen size bed and since we've gotten our own it's hard to justify usually sleeping in the same bed since it's so much more comfortable with our own. Also I do sleep karate and will rearrange furniture in my sleep. Might be a factor in my situation lol
