Coupled Jellies: If you were suddenly living on your own (for whatever reason), how different would your living arrangements be?

Asked by cookieman (41627points) March 14th, 2017 from iPhone

I’m a married Jelly with a wife and daughter living in a 4-bedroom, nice suburban home. Corner lot, couple cars, picket fence — the whole shabang.

It’s lovely. My wife loves it — but if I were single, there’s no way in hell I would live this way. Too much upkeep. Too much responsibility.

More than likely, I’d be in a tiny 1-bedroom apartment with very little stuff to my name. I like that idea better.
My wife says that on her own, she’d keep everything the same and joked that my idea was “sad”.

(Note that this is not about what you can afford. It’s about how you would choose to live.)

How about you coupled Jellies? How would you live?
