<human>: I've already asked this in another sub, but I guess /r/relationships is the better choice.
You know, every time someone says "I had a bad gf and was sad, now I found the love of my life and am happy", somebody likes to point out that your happiness shouldn't depend on relationships. Of course it's important to love yourself, have hobbies and don't build your wall of confidence with bricks of compliments.

But what if being extremely close with one person is a life goal in itself? Why should it be bad to gain one huge portion of happiness out of intimacy?
There seems to be a stigma around intimate, fulfilling love.
I don't only ask because of some reddit comments, but also because our roommates complain about the "perfection" of our relationship and that it's unhealthy. I actually think they're just envious because they never had good relationships, just falling for one bad guy after another. They didn't experience the "couple stuff" they're complaining about, but maybe they see something that we don't see?

My boyfriend and I each have our own life, own hobbies... we just get along like true bros and lovers. Why shouldn't we build dependence on each other to a degree? Cooking for each other, sleeping together, going out a lot (60% of the time just the two of us, the rest without each other, but with friends or alone), going to the gym together, talking, hanging, planning the future, having insiders...
True friendship isn't that much different, but I don't hear anyone complain about that one. Btw, we don't even kiss, cuddle or flirt in front of them.

What do you think?
Is it necessary to keep yourself from being 100% close to someone? I don't really see the problem, but I also don't know what to say to stop getting shit by our roommates.

Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?
<bot>: Female roommates are complaining about our "happy couple stuff" and we're not even that kind of lovey-dovey people.
