Scenario

When living situations remain superficial despite proximity

My roommate and I have been living together for three years and we've developed this careful politeness that keeps everything smooth but I realized I don't actually know her at all and I suspect she feels the same way about me and I'm not sure if we should try to become real friends or just accept this pleasant distance.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The success of their practical arrangement has come at the cost of genuine connection, leaving both wondering what they're missing and whether it matters.
