Living Together: The two of you can split the cost of rent or mortgage and it is easier to hang out with each other but you guys need to compromise and neither can't have most of the space around the house. Oh by the way you two can also split chores unlike living separately.

Living Separately: While this is more expensive and might be trickier to see each other some days unless you guys live in the same neighborhood or apartment complex of course. But neither of you don't have to compromise on certain rooms because since you have your own space and your girl or guy also has their own space you guys can decorate and have literally everything y'all want in your own places.

I sometimes hear East Asian societies are based around conformity while western societies are based around individualism. But what is so great about individualism? The US is perhaps the premier example and yet we see loads of people on the streets living in filth and then another portion shooting neighborhoods or robbing stores. And then a third portion are just deadbeat rednecks with a dwindling quality of gene pool or tattooed weirdos expressing their “woke” new-age nonsense.

is this what individualism gets us? Meanwhile confirming societies like China, Korea, Japan have low crime rates and rapidly developing urban environments. Not to be too extreme about either side but it seems a conforming society often times just does it better.
