Scenario

When housemates have different approaches to shared values

My roommate and I moved in together because we both wanted to live more sustainably and share resources, but we have completely different standards about what that looks like in practice - they want to compost everything and buy nothing new while I think some conveniences are worth the environmental cost. We're both getting judgmental about each other's choices and the idealistic vision we had is turning into daily tension.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people who thought they shared the same values are discovering that their different interpretations of how to live those values are creating conflict in their daily shared life.
