"As a woman, there's often pressure to follow a more traditional path. But ever since I was 16, I've known I don't want kids or to share a bed with my partner."
"Katie was the one who brought it up, and she was a little nervous to say, 'Hey, I want my own bedroom.' But I was excited."
"The difference with our arrangement is that you don't have to deal with someone snoring next to you at night, on top of everything else."
"To me, it was a no-brainer. You pay one way or another, whether that's financially or with your mental health."
