Ignoring traditions for more thoughtful ways of living
Is it the economics that has gotten in the way of maintaining space and identity in relationships? Maybe.
Some people do holistically better staying together in the same space; others find they need a little more breathing room to excel in their relationship.
Either way, you have to do what works best for you and your partner. Traditional ways of doing things don’t mean it’s the way things should continue.
Think for yourself. Question traditions, beliefs, and typical ways of doing things; if any of these don’t work for you, abandon them and find a more successful way to proceed.
