<human>: I've lived with my roommate (and 4-years-ago ex) for the past 6 years. We've had conflicts on and off the whole time, escalating to a point where I moved a bunch of my things out. She also started making plans to move elsewhere. We've talked since and discovered what's been causing our significant communication problems, and she says she's willing to try and work through things. I'm somewhat willing to do that as well, but have concerns that things will revert back (though she said she'd pull the plug if she felt they were headed in that direction). I'm turning 34 this year and have never actually lived on my own, always with at least one roommate. I've been wondering whether this has impeded my personal development (I've got issues with self-esteem and self-identity, for which I am seeing a counsellor) and whether I should take this as an opportunity to explore that. 

I've got concerns about living on my own, not regarding basic survival but rather about quality of life. I'm concerned I may become a hermit, or miss out on other opportunities as a result of the isolation. There's of course also the issue of increased costs. I do otherwise enjoy living with my roommate when things are going well and will certainly miss her if I leave. She's very intelligent, gives good advice and has always has a unique and interesting point of view on things. Not really sure what to do, and the end of the month is rapidly approaching!

Can you provide a brief rundown of the text in within 3 sentences?
<bot>: Had a blow-out with roommate, need to decide whether to work through it or live alone for the first time at 33 to explore myself.
