Perks Of Living Alone

Living with other people has its upsides, like getting to split bills and the cost of rent, and living with your romantic partner can be great, too. But there’s also a lot to love about NOT sharing your space with anyone else. A Reddit thread asks, “What’s the most underrated advantage of living alone?”
