When friends don't understand your choice to live alone

Three of us in our friend group all live alone by choice and love it, but when we talk about it with our coupled friends there's this weird dynamic where they either romanticize our 'freedom' or act like we're missing something essential. We want to have real conversations about intentional solitude but keep hitting these walls of assumption and projection from people we care about.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The decision to live alone challenges others' life choices in ways that make honest conversation about solitude nearly impossible.
