Will I find my partner in cohousing

You should not go into a Cohousing project with the intention of getting laid or finding your partner. That's more of a cult thing. It sounds like I'm joking but legitimately if you join a cult or an extreme community where individuality is not important , you're more likely to find somebody with a similar mindset that's also looking for a partner that feels like they can only date within the community.

With cohousing you're an independent person. You have your own place and you go to another place ( the common house ) to hang with your neighbors.

That being said , OBVIOUSLY people date their coworkers , employees , clients, business partners and neighbors all the time so I'm not oblivious to the reality that people that spend large amounts of time around each other and that put energy doing the same thing might develop feelings towards each other but the point still stands that it should never be a goal.

Each Cohousing community will have their own rules/ suggestions but at the very least it's recommended both people keep their individual homes / apts. If the relationship goes good and the couple has children in the future ,they have more house to figure things out with. If the relationship goes bad and they split, each person has a house to go back to at the very least while they figure out how to navigate things

That being said
