I kinda want a commune house. The next house I buy will probably be a split bedroom design so that I can ideally share with a single female friend.

Laura, that's is 100% right on for me too. I'm a great advocate for other but suck at it for myself.
Mabelle, I love my commune. It actually has freed me to date, even if the date is not a dude I want to marry/help raise my kids. My kids are doing great, I have lots of fun and company at home, and dating is just for fun.
That all sounds so wonderful, Stephanie! Good to read.

That sounds awesome! I want my sister to make a commune, she's joked about it, but not in Indiana.

Me too! It sounds wonderful. My BFF and I have talked seriously about buying a house with two master suites or something that we can share. In Nashville, I had a big house, and there were always three or four people living with me, and I liked it. We were all introverts, so it worked. I like living alone, but it does get lonely. And scary, sometimes.

I have a friend who formed a co-housing community with her friends that's pretty communal. They're all around retirement age but not ready for a retirement home. And they're all over yard work and cleaning gutters. So they designed and built (via contractor) an apartment building with a bunch of handicapped accessible one-bedroom apartments, each with a small kitchen and balcony. There's also a larger communal kitchen, several bed/bath spaces that they can reserve for visitors, gaming and hang-out areas, etc. It's near a bus hub and in a walkable part of town, as well as near a hospital. It's all very deliberate and well considered. I wouldn't mind doing something like that.
Yeah, that sounds like a dream to me!
Adult dorm, man. That is what I want.
I would love that.
