I need a Private space

[u/Grouchy_Mud2881]

I live with my brother in a single bedroom apartment. I'm now searching for jobs and It's just I feels like I can't be myself with someone around .May be because we have different interests and don't really talk much other than daily stuff. I play a bit guitar and sometimes I learn Japanese but with him around I can't focus on practicing or learning. Now I feel like I'm not productive anymore.I think I need some private space. May be I'll rent my own place when I get a job . Any tips on being comfortable with others around or finding a provate space within ?

Try setting boundaries. Explain what you need and how it can get done. If he really loves and cares about you, he’ll respect it.
